That's funny, I have a friend whom I refer to as my twin, and we slept together once.

I knew I'd have an excuse to bring that up some day.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that the friend is a she. Totally not gay. :unsure:

Yes.

Unless of course it's not OK for a woman to ask for a female to ask for a female officer to carry out body checks. In which case, the answer would be no.

Okay, if this is what you mean by clone, then I would not date this clone. I could only relate to a being with my personality and memories as another version of myself, not as a different person.

Now, if this clone was of the opposite sex (a female), and therefore had a similar natural temperament, but had entirely different memories and formative experiences, then I could perhaps be interested. We'd probably "click" on some level.

I also have a friend whom I refer to as my twin, but he is gay. Out of boredom, or curiosity, or loneliness (I couldn't honestly tell you which), we tried to sleep together once, but it went horribly wrong.

I honestly had no idea who that was and had to look her up. No. I am not. :p

My friend has had sex with a girl before, and he said it wasn't for him. Perhaps we were exploring our affinity for one another because we really are close. I can't remember what provoked it exactly. What I do remember are the hilarious screams from both of us as we realized what we were about to do. Thank goodness we both came to our senses.

Just messing around; I watch one of her shows a lot. I read an interview where she said she once had awful sex with a friend who was confused about his sexuality.

Nice. In my case, I had a crush on the girl, and she had flately told me that nothing was going to happen. So I got over the crush... and we had sex. That's classically human, isn't it?

Though as a friend/etc, definitely.

Now, cloning doesn't mean the clone is going to have the same personality and looks as you, and whatever... But, for sake entertainment, let's say it does.

Answer to the topic. No.

No... I'm a very moody, emotional, difficult human being. I need someone a little more stable than myself. :)

Actually, it occurred to me lately that my current crush actually has a remarkably similar facial profile to me. I mean besides being a woman she has the same basic size and angle on her nose, same approximate forehead and chin slope, I have a more prominent chin but really it's quite something.

I'm not dating her, but it's confirmed my belief that I would be attracted to a female clone of myself.
