Imagine a hundred exact clones of you were born to random mothers across your country the same year you were. Today, you all have a giant clone meeting, and take a wide array of psychological tests. How similar to each other would you expect all yall to roughly be?

I have some unique insight on this. My wife is from a sperm doner who was used for at least 13 pregnancies. We’ve met several of her half siblings and even then the similarities are shocking.

Great poll. This is a topic where many people just don't know (or don't want to know?) what research so far shows.

Where do you come up with these wild questions lol. I enjoy these!

Right around 50%. Owning multiple dogs of the the same breed with highly specialized jobs and watching them perform complex tasks together without language, or training, has made me suspect that we severely under-estimate genetics and behavior.

Did my genetics still come from my real-life parents, and therefore all the clones' did too?

I am who I am because of were and with I grow up, if I lived in a different place with different people I am 100% I would be a different person.

Shit I accidentally voted backwards.

This is very hard to measure imho. Yet I think I would be esentially the same in most cases.

U mean genetic clones? Who are the original parents? The question needs more details

Replying to

I'm pretty sure my personality has been strongly influenced by my childhood, but I'd still say the similarities would be 50-75% simply because genetics are a pretty strong factor.
