Love can be a powerful thing. As pointed proof of that, we offer up this story of a Taiwanese man who was willing to part with the tip of his manhood to marry the Indonesian woman he loves.
We’ve seen countless stories in the local Indonesian media about foreigners giving up a lot to be with the love of their lives in Indonesia, but this man’s forsaking of his foreskin ranks among the most valiant of them all.
Jayanti, a 23-year-old resident of Cirebon, West Java, tied the knot with 34-year-old Taiwanese man Zhou Hong Ze in her home village yesterday. Jayanti was a domestic helper in Taiwan, who worked as Hong Ze’s father’s personal caregiver. Meanwhile, the media described Hong Ze as “a rich Taiwanese who owns four companies.”
“We met on January 27, 2017. We were set up by my employer,” Jayanti said after the wedding, as quoted by JPNN.
From there, the couple apparently fell hard and fast in love.
Three months after they first met, the couple agreed to get married. However, Jayanti gave Hong Ze a couple of conditions: that they wed according to her culture’s customs, and for him to adopt Islam and the requirements that go with it, including circumcision for males.
Affirming his commitment to Jayanti, Hong Ze officially converted to Islam on Monday. On Wednesday, the couple was paraded on horseback around Jayanti’s village, attracting much local attention. Later that day, Hong Ze underwent the religious snipping procedure.

After officially becoming husband and wife yesterday, it’s hard to imagine the newlyweds will be consummating their marriage anytime soon. After all, the predicted recovery time for circumcision for an adult is around 2-3 weeks.
What a keeper this Hong Ze fella has proven himself to be. Here’s hoping that the newlyweds find eternal happiness together.
