How Attractive Do You Really Think You Are? Would you.....

[Jiarn]

Date someone who looked exactly like you?

I have some SERIOUS doubts about their "collected data" that people gravitate toward similar to themselves looking mates. SERIOUS doubts.

 

[Seraphyn]

I tend to be especially attracted to mostly opposites, looks wise anyway. So I'd wager this to be wrong.

 

[phil]

I wouldn't date myself. Not because of my looks but I know I'm emotionally distant and horrible in bed.

Well, the article only touches on physical looks, not so much the rest....

 

[Morphine]

I would date me and sex me up and then leave me for someone hotter and not so screwed up.

 

[Dave]

I'd be turned off by my bad teeth.

 

[Ravenpoe]

I'd make a pretty horrible woman, so probably not.

As a man, though, I'm super sexeh!*


*not really

 

[Covar]

I wouldn't date myself, I'm straight.

 

[Jiarn]

I wouldn't date myself, I'm straight.

Sorry, rephrased the first post.

 

[Dave]

I already know what I'd look like as a woman.

 

[phil]

I wouldn't date myself, I'm straight.

I'd say that this is another reason I wouldn't, but a more accurate description would be that I don't have enough money to make it worth it.

 

[Hylian]

I hate the way I look so why would I want to date someone who looks like me?

 

[Null]

I look like a cross between Kevin Smith and George Lucas. I don't want to date that. Hypothetically I'd want to date a woman who looked like Lexa Doig, but that ain't happening even as far as wishing goes.

 

[MindDetective]

Our brown bag discussion group was just talking about mate selection today. It turns out that compatibility is often influenced by smell. The research seems to show that people with complimentary immune systems are more likely to be sexually attracted to each other (NOT similar immune system profiles!) While people do end up with people who might share some traits, I doubt if it is the driving force behind how people choose their partners.

 

[Gusto]

Celebrity look-alike things online have pegged me as equally similar to John Turturro and Carmen Electra.

 

[Chibibar]

Would I date an opposite of me? (i.e. female version of me?) ummm probably not at this life. I'm overweight, now maybe 10 years ago..... maybe.
But what makes my wife and I almost "perfect match" is we do have our similarity and differences to balance out life is not fun when everything is the same (i.e. a girl or guy version of you depending on your type)

 

[Baerdog]

I'd fuck my female doppelganger, sure. They don't call me the handsome guy for nothing.

 

[HCGLNS]

I am happily married to the female version of myself.

 

[Chad Sexington]

Ugh, no. I have a really low... self-image, I guess. Other people have said I am attractive, and I am hard on myself in most areas, so it's reasonable to assume I'm overly harsh about my looks. Perhaps I do seek out similar-looking individuals without realizing it?

 

[Cajungal]

Weird. I think I do all right, but I would never make a point to seek out someone who looks just like me. Maybe I'm just scared that their image would fade into a ripple every time we tried to kiss.

 

[Officer_Charon]

I am happily married to the female version of myself.

Cheesy, yet classy. Approved.

 

[Kovac]

Ugh, no. I have a really low... self-image, I guess. Other people have said I am attractive

That is pretty much my response.

Only no one has ever told me that i'm attractive and I doubt that they ever will.

 

[Gusto]

A girl who looks like me would be too tall for my tastes, and also have a big nose. :I

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

....no one else caught the idea of some Morphine-on-Morphine action?

What if I told y'alls I would totally jump at some of that Bumble-on-Bumb's stuff?

 

[Vagabond]

Society tells me I already go after women who act like my mother.

Dating one that looks like her?

Spoiler

maybe

 

[Ravenpoe]

I'd totally be down for some morphine on morphine on bumble on bumble action! Mreow!

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

I'd totally be down for some morphine on morphine on bumble on bumble action! Mreow!

....

 

[makare]

I'd watch that.

 

[Tress]

I don't know why you guys are treating this as hypothetical. I have sex with myself all the time.

[Steve]

Well, I have a sister who bears a striking resemblence to me and, no, I would not want to date her.

 

[Ravenpoe]

Well, I have a sister who bears a striking resemblence to me and, no, I would not want to date her.

So, does that mean we're free to hit that?

We'll be thinking of you.

 

[Tress]

Well, I have a sister who bears a striking resemblence to me and, no, I would not want to date her.

So, you don't want to date your sister. What a shock.

Westermarck was right!
