Look Alikes

It has long been said that people often begin to resemble their pets and spouses begin to dress alike, but I have a question for my 2 readers...how is it that lesbian couples end up looking like sisters? As a regular morning commuter, I often see the same group of people. There is a lesbian couple that ride most of the way into midtown with me that I have noticed look fighteningly alike...same choppy Ellen-ish haircut, same librarian geek-chic glasses, same low-on-the-hips jeans with wide distressed belt, same plaid shirt or long-sleeved t-shirt under a short-sleeved polo.

Today's ride home brought was shared with a couple both sporting saggy pants and matching wife beaters. Not nearly as much matching as the original couple, but it did spark the memory.

Yes, I have taken notice of them and mean no harm or ill will with my question, it's just something that has been rolling around in my head for a while and I finally decided to post it to the readers.

Any thoughts?

All I have to add is my observations. Last night in the Target parking lot in Culpepper, VA, I saw two girls walking to their car. Same short black hair. Same nose rings. Same camo pants cut into shorts. Similar black shirts. Same wide belts. Very different body frames.
