* In the Literature/BookOfGenesis, this trope goes right back to the literal interpretation Adam and Eve, as it's written that Eve came from Adam's rib.[[note]]Or, respectively, if you take it either literally or the wrong (?) translation. There are some who interpret the Hebrew word as "side" or "aspect" and say, that Adam was a hermaphrodite in some way and the God took the female side/aspect and made it into a separate being.[[/note]] There are also the interpretations that suggest she was made from a different bone entirely, one present in many mammals but not in humans.[[note]]Specifically the ''baculum'', which is a bone in the penis to help with copulation. Humans do not have them, and function entirely hydraulically.[[/note]]

Also known as selfcest, autoincest, clonecest, [[{{Portmanteau}} incesturbation]], or [[JustForPun doppelbanger]].

* ''WebOriginal/OrionsArm'':

** And in their [[http://www.ign.com/videos/2010/03/31/back-to-the-future-sex-scenes spoof]] of ''Film/BackToTheFuture'', a [[OutOfCharacterMoment disgusting]] version of Marty ends up [[{{Squick}} having sex with his own mother]]. Doc is horrified by this, and sends Marty back in time to stop this from happening--only to end up with Marty having a threesome with his mother ''and himself''!

* In ''Film/The6thDay'', Adam Gibson, who was cloned without his knowledge, tells the villain he should clone himself while he's still alive. The villain asks if it would be so he could get Adam's unique perspective. Adam says, "No, so you can go fuck yourself." (and when the dead villain falls over an unconscious/incomplete clone of himself, Adam's reply is "When I said that you should screw yourself, I didn't mean for you to take it literally.")

Note that [[JustForFun/IThoughtItMeant this is not the same]] as ADateWithRosiePalms.

* ''Wiki/SCPFoundation'': [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-1587 SCP-1587]], a machine attached to a bed that makes whatever you dream about become a real place and teleports you there. One of the tests by its inventor didn't turn out the way he hoped.

* The ''WebAnimation/{{Eddsworld}} episode Movie Makers reveals that Matt has previous movie-making experience with his personal porno, ''Matt-on-Matt Action'', rated: Not Suitable for Anyone Ever.

In erotica, this is often considered more acceptable than most other types of fetishes (like say, incest), seeing as it's, well, ''impossible'' in reality.[[note]]For now, anyway. Cloning's coming along pretty nicely.[[/note]]

* Invoked, and very nearly practiced, by Doctor What in ''Script/AHDotComTheSeries'' "The Narcissus Syndrome" -- with his evil, MirrorUniverse, GenderBender counterpart.

** This BLGame features uke salesman, Saeki Katsuya, who turns into a [[BespectacledBastardBoyfriend super sadistic seme]] when he puts on a pair of glasses given to him by a mysterious stranger. Several of the game's bonus scenes feature his glasses-wearing seme self doing very naughty things to the normal version.

** In "Low Down, Dirty", Slim Shady brags that he was convicted for molesting Eminem.
** In "My Darling", Slim sings to Marshall that he loves him, he wants his body, and they are meant to be together.
** In "Guns Blazing", Eminem's verse is a string of insults to an ex-lover named Michelle, who apparently left her abusive spouse to be with Slim, then remarried him. Aspects of Michelle's life - her trailer-trash background, her job in food service, the toddler she is protective of, and her marrying/divorcing/marrying/divorcing an [[DestructiveRomance abusive partner]] - are the same as Eminem's, and the name "Michelle" sounds extremely similar to "Marshall", giving the impression that she's a DistaffCounterpart to him, and her relationship with Slim is an [[AllegoricalCharacter allegory]] for how the real Marshall chose the rap game at the [[CreatorBreakdown cost of his love life]].

* Music/{{Eminem}} occasionally implies his own alter-egos do a bit of this. In "Low Down, Dirty", Slim Shady brags that he was convicted for molesting Eminem. In "My Darling", Slim sings to Marshall that he loves him, he wants his body, and they are meant to be together.

* ''Series/KamenRiderExAid'': Emu and [[spoiler: Parado]] is a popular FanPreferredCouple, with [[spoiler: Parado]] being [[HoYay very possessive of and obsessed]] with Emu and tends to get all NoSenseOfPersonalSpace with him. [[spoiler: In episode 29, it’s revealed that Parado is Emu's Bugster, the true identity of his SplitPersonality M, and they are SharingABody, making it this trope since even though their personalities are different, from a certain point of view, Emu is essentially screwing himself.]]

* In their crossover review of ''Film/MyraBreckinridge'', when presented with the scene of Myra performing oral sex on her [[{{Transgender}} pre-op]] self Myron (long story):

* In one bit, stand-up comedian Creator/DavidCross jokes about this guy at the gym fantasizing about pulling himself out of the mirror, and the two thems dance to Music/BarbraStreisand music, make out, and then "they fuck each other on the Flexinator 500!"

* Teased in the paid version of ''VisualNovel/HatofulBoyfriend''. During the maid cafe scene, Ryouta holds up a mirror so the other birds can check their outfits. [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Oko San]] fails to realize the bird in the mirror is his own reflection, and tries to court it.

* The music video of "Somebody Else" by ''Music/The1975'' has a scene in which Matt (the band's vocalist) starts having sex with a woman inside a car. The woman eventually transforms into Matty in female clothing, but they continue having sex regardless.

Probably more prevalent in {{fanfic}}tion than in original works, but it's out there. Technically, any [[FoeYay intimacy]] between a character and their EnemyWithout will be this. Expect much argument amongst the characters, fans, and oftentimes even both as to whether this qualifies as actual sex, incest (it could be considered super-incest since there's no closer relative possible than ''yourself'', as even an [[{{Twincest}} identical twin]] will have some minute, statistically negligible genetic differences), or masturbation. When a good chunk of the fandom agrees to ship a character's alternate selves together despite all of this, including [[AlternateUniverseFic alternate selves the fandom made up]], that's AlternateSelfShipping.

* There are a number of ways to go about this in ''TabletopGame/MageTheAwakening''. Shapeshifting lets one person take the form of another, but it's also possible for a mage to divide into two [[MesACrowd or more]] bodies. The more esoterically inclined can journey into their own minds or cause aspects of their personalities to manifest physically: there's a mention of a mage who incarnated their own lust. [[UpToEleven Archmasters]] can create avatars; meet past, future, or alternate-timeline versions of themselves; and do it all in worlds generated from their souls, where they are aware of everything happening within. PowerPerversionPotential indeed.
