oedipus complex, anyone?

This article is pretty interesting, under the rare occasion that you actually get past the creepiness of the title:

"Are you attracted to your dad?"

I'll give you a couple seconds to stop shuddering.

Now that we got that out of the way, the article is about scientific research suggesting that men and women "are physically attracted to partners who resemble their opposite-sex parent."

For obvious reasons, it's easier for me to believe that guys I date share traits and values with my dad. Rather than, um, look like him.

Thoughts?
