So, this week, Tuesday specifically, at South Street, I posed a question to the crowd at large:
Q:If you were cloned, and you had sex with your clone, would it be incest or masturbation?
This question was passed around South Street, with many varied (and by varied, I mean many variations on “What sort of sick fuck would ask this question”) answers.
We left South Street, for a quick sojourn at X Lounge, and when we subsequently returned to South Street, the first thing the doorman/bouncer said to me upon returning was “You were the guy that asked about the cloning-thing, right? Whatever, it’s definitely ‘gay’”.

There’s a chapter indirectly about that in The Time Traveler’s Wife which I must admit made me totally uncomfortable. My vote is for incest, as it’s closer to getting it on with your twin than your hand.
incest.
unless it’s a robot.
incest
hmm, I’d like to know what spared this question in the first place you freak
that would be Sparked
Totally incest. Really creepy incest.
I don’t think I’d be interested in me anyway, so it is a moot point.
now that i think about it, the bouncer is right.. it would be gay
Here’s the aforementioned book’s version: if you could time travel and meet up with your past or future self, and you did you, would that be incest or masterbation?
See what we could be talking about in the book club?
i love gay.
Kind of like the famous one “If you have Multiple Personality Disorder and you commit suicide, is it murder?
I would not have sex with me. I know too much.
but, it’s *you*. Having sex with yourself is incest? Does that mean it’s incest when you masturbate (all by your lonesome).
I think in the case of time travel, it is you, so it’s just like a time delayed masterbation (because at some point in time you are the one experiencing the pleasure and you are the one performing for the exact same act). In the case of a clone, assuming only one incident, the giver is never the receiver and vice versa, so while you are genertically the same, you are two seprate entities.
(Can you tell it’s been a slow day at the office today? Fun question, oy!)
yeah, what lys said.
Incest on steroids.
A clone of you isn’t *you*. Genetic equivalent, biological carbon-copy, whatever, its not *you* at best its *another you*, and when you have sex with another its not masturbation. Gay? YES. Creepy? Of course. Do we need to find Oy a hobby? I’m beginning to think so.
I guess you at least don’t have to worry about having safe sex…
Oy, you need some Therapy sweetie.
my question is, if you’re submissive, is your clone also submissive? (likewise for doms) if so, how is anything even going to get done in the first place?
How ’bout if you’re trans-gender/trans-sexual? Your clone would be the biological equivalent of the ‘birth you’. If you hooked up under that scenario, would it still be gay? I think maybe not?
hips - now you’re hitting the nature vs. nurture thing, as your clone may have made the same life choices as you (nature) or may still be your birth gender (nuture). That being said, if the hardware is different, I don’t think it’s gay.
OMG, hips! That is some d-e-e-p thought there. I think I just blew something in my brain, trying to process that.
A perfect awkward sex conversation for your hot date topic.
It be the best sex either one of us ever had. That’s for sure.
my clone would be approximately 30 years younger than me. that’s hot.
if you sleep with your spouse/partner’s clone, is that cheating?
I read a cheeseball sci-fi book once where the dude went back in time and screwed his mom. eeewwwwww!
Was Sigmund Freud the author, by chance?
Gobbler, your wife must be so proud
Heinlein. Always thought he was overrated.
Nonono, Hips, you’re being to scientific. Not a “Dolly” type clone, but a presto-chango sci-fi insta-copy.
Sparky - good variant - is that cheating?
Yes, I need therapy. Surely you’re not just figuring that out…
If by clone you mean someone I have to raise from a baby: then it’s insest
If by clone you mean an instant photo copy (same age same clothes) then it’s masturbation.
Let me ask you a question, Oy. Did this line work? I mean did it get you some booty? Or just the boot?
Gobbler, that was fantastic. (Incest.) (Masturbation if you’re sharing the same brain/penis brain.)
My vote’s for gay incest. Nothing to do with this convo - just in general I favor gay incest.
This line had women, and a few men, backing slowly away from me until they felt there was enough safe distance to turn and run
(oddly enough, though, it seems like the bartenders always had the best response to the question (especially Dan at SS and Calvin at X))
What was the name of the Micheal Keaton movie where he had all his clones doing stuff for him?
without looking it up, does anyone know?
Multiplicity.
ding, ding, ding, ding, ding….donk! You won an invitation to a wine party at Crush!
OK this took some serious digging to find, but I found the Space Moose time travel comic:

Sounds like you just killed a bell.
Yeah. Somewhere in my youth, I decided to save all of that ‘book-learnin’ space in my brain for useless trivia. I think it’s panned out pretty well so far. If all else fails, I’m going to whore myself out on the gameshow circuit until I’m offered a cast position on The Surreal Life or some other B-List (C-List?) reality television show.
Oh… and I am hoping to make it to Crush, but it’s starting to look like I’ll be on-call that week.
If you had a clone, you could do both…..and the clone. Back to topic.
In today’s news…
Separated at birth twins get married
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080111/wl_uk_afp/britainchildrenadoptionmarriage
I prefer my masturbation wholistically obtained.
I’ve gotten some really fascinating/disturbing news from this site today, between the married twins and the Creation Museum… thanks?
It’s definitely incest. Having sex with anyone who shares the same DNA or is related to you is always incest. If it was an opposite sex clone and she was as ridiculously good looking as me, i’d hit it.
If she was as discriminating, you’d have to wait in line.
Incest. Although I’m circumcised, I advised my clone against it. Sex just isn’t the same for my clone, who I’m sure has more fun that I do.
there was some more discussion of this topic at C&O last night, and it got me to thinking. Some serious, deep pondering, and I had an epiphany about myself.
I’m going to need to learn to suppress my gag reflex before I’m cloned. Maybe take some sword-swallowing lessons as well. I might be more man than I can handle!
Now thats the way to take a totally sick and perverted conversation to another level darling. Bravo
