The only similarity between Mum and the girls I prefer is that they're
both shorter than me. The paler asians (I guess they're from more
northern latitudes), or redheads, and generally shorter than mum. And I
would definitely not go out with someone with a personality remotely
similar to my mother's. One of us would probably end up dead before
long. (Not that I hate my mother. She's just incredibly annoying and we
seem to generally think in such divergent ways that what one thinks is
plain English might as well be Greek to the other.)
I can't say how much my current girlfriend differs from that because I
don't have a current girlfriend :( or a past one, for that matter :(
hopefully i'll have a future one one day though :)

Shouldn't that be CLICHE? I understand French doesn't do accents on
capital letters, and English really shouldn't be putting *more* accents
on :)

I doubt it any more than straight people fancying people who look like
their mother.

We can't *just* discuss conlanging here :)
Though maybe it would be a start... Maybe I should do some more work on
Føtisk.
