Well, if I were to date someone like my mother, I'd be dating a racist and homophobic slob, so basically no. The thought disgusts me. My primary female role model, instead of my mother, would probably be my sister Julia, age 24. She's so intellectual and does a lot of humanitarian work, and she's not a complete bigot. So I could see myself dating someone similar to my sister.

This theory must really be situational, but I can see how this may be the case for many other folks.
