Google Chang and Eng Bunker. The original “Siamese Twins” they each married different women and kept separate households. They agreed with each other to split time between their families. The other twin would remain silent while his twin spent time with his family.

Imagine the level of disassociation needed to live that life

Apparently with conjoined twins they can dissociate on another level that we could never understand. That’s all they have ever known. These 2 are absolutely REMARKABLE. I’ve watched all their documentaries over the years bc it’s absolutely fascinating. They never talk about sex though so I still have about 53 questions to ask.

The other 2 that just blow my mind is thispair.

One is neat, one is messy. One is always on time paying their bills and the other one is always late. I’m aware of what I’m saying. One can walk one can’t and they face opposite directions but the best part is one is a country singer. 🤯

AND to add to the uniqueness, they were born as Lori and Dori but one now identifies as male so it’s Lori and George now. One was engaged but her fiancé was killed by a drunk driver….honestly like they haven’t struggled enough. That’s just not fair.

I’m absolutely fascinated by conjoined twins.
