The other humans are our mirror

The other humans function as mirrors that reflect us back, we both love as refuse.

Ground vehicles have mirrors that allow the driver to see what happens behind the vehicle. These are generally referred to the beautiful, but not very creative name "mirrors".

If humans had eyes in the never, not need. Therefore, the "mirror" are compensated prosthesis partial our visual disability.

Mirrors are artifacts infallible. Nobody has heard of a "broken mirror" malfunctions, that delays or advances. If you've seen distorting mirrors that show us a wide picture, wide or deformed.

At this level of analysis it seems very simple, but the reflection of our image can be more complex and then the consequences of the distortion stop being fun to become irritating, threatening enemy.

The reflection of our image also occurs when a similar look.

While we know that the other is a mirror that is technically required to refund a certain aspect of our body, something we hope is frustrated when the like-mirror has a different skin color, other factions that seem unpleasant, aesthetically inappropriate.

I know that this view is not included in the common sense, but I ask permission to forget for a while of that rule.

People like, human-shaped, we see personally, in photographs or films, strike us like mirrors, even when we know they are not.

These "mirrors" are welcome if we return a "reflection" gives us pleasure (for example, we would like to have Marilyn Monroe's face, it sounds crazy), and these "mirrors" are bad come if we return a "reflection" we dislike (eg wish not belong to another race).
