So apparently in Chinese culture "ghost marriage" or literally uniting corpses in marriage...is a thing. I'm a big fan of Ask a Mortician on Youtube and I've been binging a little. Anyways without getting too much into it, it is part of an age old custom having to do with people getting married as a status symbol to get on the prayer alter. The reason I share this with you is because of the fact that a woman does not have much rights in life or death without her husband. And if a woman's fiance were to die before marriage...

A rooster can take his place and walk her down the aisle.

Can you imagine?
 
That's interesting...guess that's my new thing to learn for today!
