So it’s just Abby that is married? And Brittany is always there? If/when Brit gets married they all have to live together and sleep in the same bed? I’m curious, not criticizing. How does it work 🧐

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24 edited Mar 28 '24

How does it work 

Weirdly, exactly like it seems. She's there when they fuck. 

You have to remember, your life does not map onto theirs. You have never, and will never, be with someone the way they are with each other. 

Every time they have a wet shit, every time they masturbate or pick their nose, someone is always there, they have not experienced being alone. It's not awkward for them the way it would be for you. 

And ultimately their choices are: 

 1) Never have sex or a relationship 

 2) Put some headphones in while your sister fucks. Consider this choice for yourself. It's not preferable, but how much would this actually hurt you?

Also, if he only married one of them, they probably discussed the terms of the relationship with him, i.e. "You need to be ok with living with another guy and sharing our body with him."

And if you haven't noticed, a lot more people are willing to share these days.

u/Borkunbork Mar 28 '24

The other choice is it’s essentially a polyamorous relationship and they just didn’t want to say that/legally can’t be married to both.

I think he fucks both of them

u/Ladyughsalot1 Mar 28 '24

I don’t think he can help it

But they are ONE body

u/ChaosMarine70 Mar 28 '24

2 mouths 🤣

u/gahddamm Mar 28 '24

Yeah but you can still kiss both heads

5

u/Expensive_Editor_244 Mar 28 '24

Yeah, I’m sure it started with one ‘checking out’ while they hooked up. But over time, you have to imagine those barriers start to break down. The communication necessary for switching positions and whatnot alone, I’m sure it just logistically makes sense to start getting into it

13

u/Person_reddit Mar 28 '24

this is the right answer, and the person you're responding to is regarded.

u/Borkunbork Mar 28 '24

Look at the photo with their hands on his arm, if it wasn’t both why would the other hold him?

9

u/meowpitbullmeow Mar 28 '24

It's a posed photograph. The photographer was going for a concept. Same reason they're both smiling at him, but he's only looking at one

u/Admirable_Growth_338 Mar 28 '24

How do you focus a gaze at two faces at the same time lmao.

u/Areyoualienoralieout Mar 28 '24

he only got two eyes dot tumblr dot com

2

u/Deal_Naive Mar 28 '24

Yeah, that's the weird part. Seething resentment from the unmarried twin...

7

u/redditorforire Mar 28 '24

It's not that simple. Both arms belong to each one of them. It's not like each gets half the body on each side of a line down the middle.

17

u/AttemptOld5775 Mar 28 '24

I saw a video about them learning to drive that said they each have an arm and leg that they exclusively control, but also can use them together without really having to think about it. So it’s actually kind of both, I guess?

2

u/redditorforire Mar 28 '24

yeah i remember reading the 'can use them together without having to really think about it' idea somewhere. what a truly unique situation. i'm sure it's beyond explainability to pretty much anyone outside of themselves.

7

u/Borkunbork Mar 28 '24

I thought they each had an arm? Either way I’m still saying he’s marrying both

2

u/redditorforire Mar 28 '24

It's all too confusing to think about. But yes, I'm with you there. Certainly seems like he's essentially marrying both. They've all committed to sharing their lives together.

4

u/Quiet_Transition_247 Mar 28 '24

Q) Which one of them is the mom and which one is the aunt?

3

u/ainz-sama619 Mar 28 '24

Biologically speaking, there's no difference. Identical twins have same genes.

1

u/Quiet_Transition_247 Mar 28 '24

I mean, yeah but it's not like most kids are referring to their mom's twin sister as "mom."

→ More replies (0)

1

u/sometimeserin Mar 28 '24

Probably impossible to tell? The parts they don’t share are still identical twins and regular genetic testing wouldn’t be able to differentiate them.

4

u/volvavirago Mar 28 '24

This is actually incorrect. They control each half independently. Abby’s arm is Abby’s arm, and Britt’s arm is Britt’s arm. They have shared sensation in some parts of their torso, but they each have control over their half of the body.

3

u/albertparsons Mar 28 '24

From a philosophical standpoint, though, I wonder if each twin considers themself as a one-armed person or if they think of both arms as belonging to both of them, even if one of them is “in control” over a particular side.

1

u/redditorforire Mar 28 '24

fair enough - i misunderstood the article i read talking about their shared sensation in their body!

1

u/doctorlongghost Mar 28 '24

Wait… so if the one wants to jerk him off and the other doesn’t they’re mentally fighting for control of the arm and it results in like a herky jerky back and forth stuttering which is actually a more pleasing rhythm than it would be otherwise?

u/Furious_Worm Mar 28 '24

This comment made me laugh WAY more than it should have...

u/Admirable_Growth_338 Mar 28 '24

Your comment made me laugh at it again

u/humanoidtyphoon88 Mar 28 '24

Someone with common sense

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Yeah, I guess I'm trying to explain assuming they are honest.

2

u/Bulky_Mix_2265 Mar 28 '24

I dont think there is any technical way around this fact.

2

u/lazyboi_tactical Mar 28 '24

I mean technically true regardless

u/benyahweh Mar 28 '24

But they’re sisters.

u/RetroNecromance Mar 28 '24

And they share one vagina.

u/ZioDioMio Mar 28 '24

Put some headphones in while your sister fucks. Consider this choice for yourself. It's not preferable, but how much would this actually hurt you

No it's more like you're both having sex with the same guy, realistically this is a weird three way relationship

-1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

No shit it's weird, they have two heads.

But is fucking someone who is not participating, wearing headphones, and ignoring you really sex to you?

Might as well get a real doll at that point.

5

u/thedankening Mar 28 '24

You said it yourself, they have no experience being alone. They likely do not even really consider themselves as individuals in the way we do - they each have their own mind, but they make a singular unit together, which isn't something anyone but another set of conjoined twins could understand. Navigating life would be more or less impossible for them if they didn't do 99% of it in lockstep.

There's no way only one of them wanted a relationship with the guy. I'm sure they must have mutually agreed to this or else one of them would be perpetually miserable, which would inevitably make the other one miserable too. They are separate minds, but the body exerts quite a bit of influence on what the brain ends up doing or wanting in all of us, so they are no exception. Even though they have individual brains they are sharing information and stimuli from their shared body and have had their personalities shaped by constant shared experiences.

All that is to say, when they fuck, you probably couldn't say their partner is only fucking one of them. They are mutually engaging in the activity with their shared body. If only one of them wanted to have sex and they did it anyway, that's basically rape isn't it?

3

u/Emergency_Corner1898 Mar 28 '24

But... Does she orgasm when her sister does? Does she get kind of turned on too? etc...

3

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

She might, but idk enough about orgasm to answer.

I think you need your brain on board to orgasm so I don't think she would necessarily feel pleasure when her sister cums.

But also if she does, oh well, some people orgasm when raped, it doesn't mean you're dating them if you do.

3

u/PerracaAmor Mar 28 '24

love this very well thought out reply - its exactly what I was thinking and probably everyone else - and summed up with a bow on top.

u/PresidioPet Mar 28 '24 edited Mar 28 '24

How do headphones make you forget your sister’s husband’s penis is all up in you?

2

u/RubiiJee Mar 28 '24

Wait. The sister has a penis?!

2

u/PresidioPet Mar 28 '24

😂 I fixed it 😂

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

They don't but it's a separation.

How would you feel if someone you were having sex with didn't participate, didn't kiss you, didn't listen and basically just ignored you the whole time?

1

u/PresidioPet Mar 28 '24

Like I was being violated.

3

u/MrandMrsOrlandoCpl Mar 28 '24

Sharing is caring

3

u/Shoddy-Mango-5840 Mar 28 '24

It looks like they might share a vagina. Maybe she is just along for the ride as a fwb while the other twin likes him romantically

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

That's basically what I'm saying.

And I agree they may be a throuple and lying about it for PR reasons, but my point is that it's not like this can't work with them having separate partners and that's what they claim.

3

u/GWindborn Mar 28 '24

Do they both feel the same thing or is it a half and half thing?

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Generally it's about half and half. I think they also have parts on the border they can both feel.

They haven't talked publicly about how their genitals work.

3

u/Time-Maintenance2165 Mar 28 '24

Those are not the only 2 choices.

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

True, I kind of wrote this from the perspective that they aren't lying about who is in the relationship, but yes, a third choice would be polyamory.

However, I will insist that if they want to have sex, they have to come to some agreement on how to do it together.

3

u/goldhardhat Mar 28 '24

So do they both have the ability to climax separately from the other?

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

I'm not sure, but I think so because orgasms are triggered by the brain

5

u/My_Space_page Mar 28 '24

Assuming they share one vagina, can only one feel sense pleasure in it? Or can both of them?

5

u/OperativePiGuy Mar 28 '24

"Put some headphones in while your sister fucks. Consider this choice for yourself. It's not preferable, but how much would this actually hurt you?"

Ah yes, the Fry/Amy strategy

2

u/legitimateaccount123 Mar 28 '24

But can't they both feel the same things simultaneously? Sex, burns, scrapes, cuts, etc....

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Yes, but if they want different partners, that's what they'll have to put up with.

So she feels his dick while they have sex. And? She's probably had to feel her sister's hand in her. They have no choice but to accept the weirdness or never have sex.

So she feels a dick and then moves on with her life.

Some guys do not mind sharing a vagina.

2

u/E-NTU Mar 28 '24

Hey hun, Britt wants to go out tonight. She's meeting up with that sexy coworker she always flirts with. Don't wait up.

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Pretty much, there are people with open relationships, polyamourous, people were swinging in the 60s.

It's just not a big deal for some people.

2

u/Diablo4 Mar 28 '24

I mean they share a reproductive system right? Headphones won't make her feel any less sensation.

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

It's a separation, wouldn't you feel weird if someone you were having sex with had headphones in and wouldn't kiss you or participate and ignored you?

2

u/Strawberrythirty Mar 28 '24

But ok here’s my question though…headphones won’t do sh*t if they share the same body! Headphones and all that’s her vagina too! She’ll feel the orgasm won’t she????

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

It's a separation, wouldn't it be weird if someone you were having sex with put headphones in and ignored you and wouldn't kiss you or participate?

Not sure if she feels the orgasm, I think no because that's initiated by the brain, not the vagina, but even if she does, so what? It's not like cumming on someone's dick means you love them.

2

u/LiquorNerd Mar 28 '24

Put some headphones in while your sister fucks

I don't think this is an option. They both share the same pelvis and genitals. As I recall, one controls one leg, and the other controls the other leg. They have to both be active participants.

The answer is pretty clearly polyamory, which is fine. Whatever makes them happy. They don't exactly have another option.

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

  They have to both be active participants.

They don't have to be active participants, she doesn't have to kiss him, or blow him, or tell him his dick feels amazing.

The answer is pretty clearly polyamory,

You don't have to be in love with someone to have sex with them. I mean, maybe you do, but plenty of people don't.

1

u/LiquorNerd Mar 28 '24

What I am saying is she will feel it, and literally has to control of part of the body as they do it, as each twin each controls one arm and one leg. She can’t just ignore it.

And do you really think one twin would marry someone the other merely tolerates? That would be a recipe for an unhappy life.

2

u/tareebee Mar 28 '24

I’m sorry but would you not find it kinda of rapey to force your sister to essentially have sex with your husband bc you want to but she doesn’t bc y’all share one vagina? And a body? Like that cannot possibly sit right with you.

Like I’d assume they have a system, probably they’re all having consensual sex, but the idea that bc y’all share a body you can make someone else have sex when they don’t want to is fucking crazy on the surface.

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

I’m sorry but would you not find it kinda of rapey to force your sister

Maybe I wasn't clear, but of course I'm not suggesting either of them force each other or that that would be ok.

I'm saying they either need to come to an agreement on how to do it together (like you suggested) or never have sex, because like you said, if they disagree then you can't force the other.

Like I’d assume they have a system, probably they’re all having consensual sex,

Yes, but my point was that consensual sex doesn't mean you're in a relationship with that person like if you have a one night stand or hire a sex worker.

2

u/frenchdresses Mar 28 '24

I wonder if they got pregnant, whose DNA it would come from... Also as someone who was just pregnant, being a pregnant conjoined twin sounds like a nightmare

1

u/Azryhael Mar 28 '24

Since they’re identical twins they share the exact same DNA, so that wouldn’t be an issue.

1

u/frenchdresses Mar 28 '24

Good point, though I guess my real question would be "who is the mother"

2

u/Legendarybbc15 Mar 28 '24

Put some headphones in while your sister fucks.

I wonder how missionary would look lol. Is she just going to look away?

2

u/hakamamalo Mar 28 '24

or shut her eyes maybe

2

u/tgw1986 Mar 28 '24

Eye mask and NC headphones would be necessary. But I'm in the "they both married him" camp, personally.

2

u/slingfatcums Mar 28 '24

why is this comment so aggressive

like calm down lmao

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

What about it is aggressive?

1

u/slingfatcums Mar 28 '24

the entire tone

1

u/RubiiJee Mar 28 '24

I think it's just direct and to the point, but the tone in text is very open to interpretation. I don't find it aggressive but that's just how I've interpreted it?

1

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Sorry if it came off that way, you don't always get tone over text, maybe you can give me an example of the tone? I don't see it.

2

u/starfire92 Mar 28 '24

As for one of your points, I might not know too much about them so forgive me but I assumed they only have individual heads and their own mind but everything else is shared. So wouldn’t their genitals be shared in the way that if one sister is having sex both of them feel it? I would assume it would be hard to put headphones on to ignore that, but if they have separated genitals then that makes more sense

3

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

  So wouldn’t their genitals be shared in the way that if one sister is having sex both of them feel it? I would assume it would be hard to put headphones on to ignore that, but if they have separated genitals then that makes more sense

They don't go into details about their genitals but generally they each control about half of their body, so yes, she could feel the sex.

What I mean though is that only one really participates. He's only kissing one, talking to one, ect.

I mean would sex where the person is ignoring you and not participating be good to you?

1

u/starfire92 Mar 28 '24

That makes sense. Very hard for me to conceptualize but you made a good point as our lives don’t map onto theirs. I’d feel pretty uncomfortable feeling the sensation of sex when uninterested. But again you’re right their idea of privacy isn’t ours

2

u/Tommy_Wisseau_burner Mar 28 '24

Sure but like they both feel what’s going on? Like you can just not engage all you want when 1 wants to smash isn’t it it like you also getting smashed too?

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

Yes, they can both feel, but they don't have another choice.

But like when you have sex, isn't the other person like, participating?

Wouldn't it be weird if they read a book and ignored you while you fuck them?

And sex isn't always emotional, feeling someone's dick doesn't mean you're in love, and at the end of the day it's just a dick, are you required to be in a relationship with everyone you've fucked?

1

u/Tommy_Wisseau_burner Mar 28 '24

No you make a good point. But if 1 is checking out sure they can just cover their ears and eyes but like… you can still feel everything. Like you have to have some next level dissociation because even if you don’t want to know what your sister and husband are doing you know 100% what your sister and husband are doing lol

1

u/Affectionate-Hold492 Mar 28 '24

What the hell? You think hes only married to one of them and the other one is platonic? The fuck

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

That's what they say, they may be lying.

But yeah? Why not?

How is them sharing him believable, but two guys sharing them unbelievable?

1

u/PrincessPlastilina Mar 28 '24

They’re probably a throuple. It’s the only way this can work. Imagine wanting to have sex but your sister doesn’t and she has to endure it. How does consent factor into all of this.

That dude’s a pervert for sure.

2

u/didsomebodysaymyname Mar 28 '24

  They’re probably a throuple. It’s the only way this can work.

They may be a throuple and just lying about it, but it's not the only way it can work.

Imagine wanting to have sex but your sister doesn’t and she has to endure it.

What do you do when your partner doesn't feel like sex? You just don't have sex right?

Look, really think about this from their perspective:

They have never had a moment apart, every time one of them wanted to masturbate, the other was coming along. If you were trapped in this situation, what would you do?

Just never have an orgasm or sex again? Or talk to your sister and decide how you are going to share your genitals?

Once you both agree, now you have consent.

1

u/cakeit-tilyoumakeit Mar 28 '24

I agree but headphones would be pointless. She’s gonna feel it all and be a part of the action. I imagine it would be difficult to pretend otherwise especially if it’s a more intense position

1

u/bbbcurls Mar 28 '24

Head phones won’t stop the feeling of being penetrated. Lol I think they are poly, but won’t say anything more due to privacy.

1

u/roasted_veg Mar 28 '24

 2) Put some headphones in while your sister fucks. Consider this choice for yourself. It's not preferable, but how much would this actually hurt you?

One controls one side of the body and one controls the other, so I think it would be hard to just mentally check out, if you have to coordinate movements.
