Do You Think Women Marry Men Like Their Fathers? Discuss.

goodneighbor · 08-05-2009, 12:25 PM

Well, do you? I know a girl who is cute but reminds me of my mom and its a turn off for me. Thoughts?

Men usually end up marrying women who are like their mothers.

Depends if they liked their father. My girlfriend hates her dad and couldn't be happier that my only resemblance to him is we're both political.
If she grew up loving her dad then she might look for someone like her dad.
Me-I love my mother. My girlfriend has my mother's sense of humor. I love it.
Not quite Oedipus but I love my mother.

Definitely. My dad and I are super close, and he is an amazing man...very laid back, sensible, fun, loves sports, acts younger than he is. I wouldn't mind my husband to have those same traits.

laura22 · 08-05-2009, 01:27 PM

like other people said, it depends on their relationship with their dad

i definitley won't be marrying someone like my dad, haha

There is some truth to that, but it's a little more complicated: http://www.infidels.org/library/mode.../carrier1.html

Also, none of my boyfriends or my husband were anything like my father in appearance or any other way.

I agree with what the author of the article says in that a woman that looked a lot like my mother certainly would not be a turn on. But I think when most people ask this question, they mean similar personality-wise, not look-wise.

brianlisk · 08-05-2009, 04:35 PM

Gosh, I hope not...

cpxc. · 08-05-2009, 04:36 PM

yep.

UTTAD-BTCS · 08-19-2009, 09:55 AM

I would like to marry someone like my dad obviously not looks wise but personality wise.

He's very easy-going and laid back, he's funny, he never gets mad and makes a joke when my sisters and I are fighting to end it, and he's obsessed with sports and can rattle off sports statistics, and he would do anything for any of us.

junior94 · 08-19-2009, 10:09 AM

Are you kidding? There's hardly anything to discuss. This is practically been all but scientifically proven

dmbgodagirl41 · 08-19-2009, 10:15 AM

Eh, I would like to marry someone who has some qualities (smart, hilarious, likes to drink/have a good time, cracks jokes about everything and everyone, has fun, tech-savvy, etc)...but I think those are generic qualities that I look for anyways. If I'm with a guy who has all qualities like my dad, I'd probably punch him in the suck hole. Actually, there is no probably, I WOULD punch him in the suck-hole.

My dad might be great in some areas, but in others, he's a total idiot.

Is there anyone that you DON'T punch?

thebestauntie · 08-19-2009, 10:20 AM

I think they do, my sister certainly did. Me personally, I tend to stay away from the raging alcoholic, wife beating, loser types.

sure.

Hot boys, hot girls, cool people, people who want to give me beer or Jager, people who like Elmo my car, funny people, people who like New England sports, people who like ketchup, people who like my cooking, people whose asses I can easily beat at Goldeneye on N64, people who text message me hilarious stories or comments, and/or people who like the beach.

*steals Katie's beer, after eating a hot dog without ketchup, all the while praising the Yankees...goes on to beat Katie at Goldeneye and text her boring work stories* (none of this occurred at a beach)

OlivePoet · 08-19-2009, 10:29 AM

I love my daddy-o, and am a complete daddy's girl. The similarities between my boyfriend and my dad are almost scary. They also talk to one another like they're old buddies, which is awesome.
