2) Incest isn't bad if you don't plan on children. Still incest
100% of incest-molested children disagree with you

Ahh I would prefer not to go there... but I already am 100% is bold to say and incorrect and leave it at that.

As far as I know, I wouldn't feel any attraction towards an exact clone.
Now, to answer another, more interesting question, let's say my "clone" had my father's X chromosome instead of the Y one, and had all the other factors as close to me as possible - then I'd probably be OK with that, and she definitely wouldn't want me to get within a 10-foot radius of her, because of the shock from learning that her male counterpart has a beard. So, the answer's still no.

Somewhere along the line I stopped Recognizing myself in mirrors most of the time so... Yeah probably, and I likely wouldn't realize I did for a while.

Are we not going to talk about this? Gunner-Chan, that's not normal, I think you should see a doctor of some sort

Perhaps Gunnar just works hard and long hours in environments free of reflective surfaces. This has resulted in disparity between actual self appearance, and remembered self appearance?

I wouldn’t. I’m not gay and I’m pretty sure I would despise my copy personality wise. I’d be more interested in having a conversation with them to see how I act around other people and to see if I do annoying things that I don’t notice. I’d also like to hear the real sound of my own voice. Not one that is distorted by microphones.

Good microphones don't distort your voice. Your facial bones resonating with your produced sounds distort your voice so that it seems different to you than how it sounds to other people. How a quality microphone records your voice is actually how your 'real' voice is percieved by others. Emphasis on good, quality microphone (and playback device, ofcourse).

Each person things that their voice is heavily distorted by microphones. But they don't think that other people's voices are equally distorted. Think about that.

I know that. It's just that this would be an opportunity to hear my voice from the hypothetical perfect microphone that otherwise doesn't exist.

Surprised how quickly I said, 'yes'.

I imagine it being essentially 'me' inhabiting two bodies, not my clone, which would quickly desync.

Feel bad for all the poor unattractive people who said "no".
But not very bad.

What about the super-attractive but also super-vain people who still don't attain their own very high standards, thinking they deserve even better because of their above-averageness?

What about those of us that are neither immensely unattractive, nor superbly attractive-- merely average-- but who do not find the idea of sex desirable? Do we get some pity points?

:P

This is me :I And I thought you meant a sleepover at first! :P
...Seriously, never knew everyone was talking about SEXUAL ACTIVITY! @_@ Because goodness, already? First people get to know each other right? I:

But um, yes. Really thought it was a sleepover :P and if I had to answer, I'd pick no because it's not even needed. Even if I'm homoromantic :v

Okay, you get pity for being average, but not much.

It would be weird for me to pity you for not wanting to do sex, though, since it's not really my thing either.

(I am superbly attractive, though.)
