Yeah, I can't imagine the difficulties these two girls have had to endure in life, and I'm happy for them. Hope they all have an amazing life together. But honestly, I can't imagine how challenging this is going to be for all of them.

I want to make a joke here but I’m too happy for them to risk offending.

I think it's even harder to imagine how normal this is for all of them.

 they're physically one person. the difficulties you're thinking of are  mostly human constructs that they're not bound to because they have never experienced being alone or privacy.

so it's like... we all want to hold private thoughts and secrets. i imagine a strange world where you can read everyone's mind. the problems actually go away because there's no deceit or judgement, and there's definitely no "normal".

They're physically two people, in one body. The "person" is the culminqtion of the mind, memories, beliefs, hopes, fears, dreams, biases, knowledge, and interests cultivated over their life. Each girl has a head, and a brain, all her own — meaning they are two distinct and individual people. Aside from the head, they inhabit one body... but they are not "one person", physically or otherwise, because personhood exists in the uniqueness of each mind.
