It is said that us women have to kiss many a frog before finding our Prince Charming so I suppose meeting a potential life-partner in this way is no more bizarre.
As part of an art exhibition in the Ukraine several women were chosen to lie 'sleeping' for three days as men survey and kiss them in the hope of waking them.
If the sleeping beauties open their eyes both they and the man who awakes them with true loves kiss are contractually obliged to marry.
Allowed to kiss Sleeping only once on the lips, requirements for the princes and princesses are the same: they must be over 18 years old, they should not be married, and they are required to have a serious intention and sincere desire to get married.
The exhibition runs from the 22nd of August through to September 9th should you be interested in kissing and potentially marrying a real life Sleeping Beauty. Read full article.
Oh dear! I think I would also like a clean bill of health included in those requirements. I guess I should feel very fortunate to have found my prince a long time ago.

contractually obliged to marry? wow!
ReplyDeleteWow. That seems so archaic. I wonder if any of the marriages will last.
ReplyDeleteI would at least try to peek at my "prince" before opening my eyes lol
Wish I were younger !
ReplyDeleteWow! This is pretty unbelievable!
ReplyDeleteEeewww!
ReplyDeleteOh...my. They have to get married? How about a date or two first? This is one of the craziest things I've ever heard! :o
ReplyDeleteHmmm…a bit odd. I suppose it is no worse than any other way though!
ReplyDelete"Contractually obliged to marry?" This is rather weird for me. How about a date to start off?
ReplyDeleteHow interesting!
ReplyDeleteCertainly an interesting way to find a partner! I am not sure I would be happy to be obligated to marry- but I will be curious to see how this turns out!

Curious though I can't say I'm lining up to play "beauty"....I suppose its not any more odd than some ways people meet up nowadays.
