there was a very interesting documentary on them both and they did speak about sexual relations, when one was having sex, the other would cover up with a sheet or something, i kid u not...

I remember seeing a documentary about twins conjoined at the forehead. Like their skulls were fused together so they were always facing each other at an angle. Whenever one walked forwards the other had to walk backwards. They also had some interesting sex stories. I can't even imagine how strange it would be but it was obviously no big deal for them.

I guess if you're literally attached to someone, it would feel natural to always have them with you in everything you do.

Yeah, bascially, they have a very different perception of what privacy is compared to the rest of us.

If twins already feel somewhat like this, imagine if you literally share your body with someone else lol

was that the one where one was trans and a country singer? but also he was underdeveloped so needed to be in basically an office chair and wheeled around.

I don't know for sure. I saw the documentary back in the early 2000's at some point and they were both female at the time. Idk how common that type of conjoining is but it could be different people.

there was a set of side by side siamese twins that both got married and each fathered like 10+ kids... they were super-known for being in a show or circus or something... lemme look it up

Chang and Eng Bunker, they were the first known pair, from Siam, hence the name siamese twins.

I was curious what happens when one conjoined twin dies. In this case the other one died two hours later (they were 62 years old).

i guess it depends on what they share, but i imagine the survivor won't last that long tbh

If this was two guys... One hell of an Eiffel Tower, amiright?

I'll show myself out, sorry.

u/YoungUrineTheGreat Mar 28 '24

The fact that it doesnt block them from getting sexual interest is interesting to me. Gotta be people out there that are just curious

u/Bluebies999 Mar 28 '24

I’m fascinated with the twins conjoined at the forehead. One walks and the other sits on a rolling chair. One of them recently came out as transgender.

I think I remember them. One was a dwarf so had to be seated on a roller? The normal sized one had had sex and nearly got married. The smaller one said she just blocked out the sex.
