I’m also adopted, and get comments like that sometimes when out with my mother. It’s never bother me or my mother, and if anything, is milding amusing.
[hijack] Adopted kids often look a whole heckuva lot like their (adoptive) parents. Sure, the DNA isn’t the same, but the way you hold yourself, facial expressions, gestures and body language often make much more of an impression of similarity than the line of a nose or the color of the eyes, and movements are learned by subconscious imitation. (Look at how actors can look just like a person they’re playing, even if they don’t actually resemble them at all.) I don’t think it should be embarrassing, painful or humorous when someone tells you you look like your mom - it’s simply the truth. [/hijack]
In a post-coital moment:
“You’re pretty well hung. For a white guy.”
???
Well, this was deliberately horrible (our senses of humour just skew that way), but after having sex with my ex-girlfriend I said to her ‘You could do that for a living.’
My God, we got our winner in #2!
Makes “you’ve got such a great ass you should just peddle it” sound tame.
