1) Hmmmm...maybe? If it were truly just like me, she'd get on my nerves. Whiny, demanding, lazy, contrary, smart, depressed. I'm not exactly a barrel of monkeys, you know? Also, although I think I'm attractive enough, I'm not really my "type." But if I had a clone, I think I'd almost be obligated to fuck her because--hey--clone.
2) Yes. Because I'm a selfish, bad person with an unhealthy backlog of revenge fantasies. If the aliens looked anything like Tom Welling as opposed to, say, Alf, I'd probably not even care about the planet-half business. It would also depend on what they wanted to do in the post-conquer period. If they were into ritual slaughter, I'd probably want to cut some sort of deal to curtail that a bit up front. But now I'm wondering what it would be about me that would make them think I'd be a good planet-ruling partner. Do they like gay porn? Sequins? Mix CDs?
3) That they're women, and they're therefore much meaner than men. I'm woefully unsuccessful with girls. I've been burned way worse by women than men. Years and years ago, I was afraid to go into a women's bar, got my courage up, and I was promptly picked on by a bunch of mullet-headed bulldykes. No one punched me, but it sucked. With guys, it's much simpler to know what they want (i.e., sex). Also, I've never had men gang up on me and call me names because I was wearing a skirt. Of course, now that I've been married to a boy for years, it's impossible to convince girls that I am actually attracted to girls--apparently, I nullified that by getting boy germs on me. Feh. Now I'm depressed.
