Conjoined twin Abby Hensel is now married

Yeah, we're curious, but polite.

The answer is: Yes, Josh can procreate with Brittany in plain Abby's sight, and Abby would never suspect infidelity.

Wikipedia says one set of reproductive organs, and apparently they're fully functional.

Basically a threesome every night 🤣

All joke aside these girls are bad ass I could not imagine being in their situation. I remember them dating different people for a while which would have been interesting for everyone…. Glad they figured it out with a life partner

Do they both feel it at the same time??

They have found all sorts of coping strategies throughout their lives to assert their individuality, so Brittany would probably say no, she was not married to him and Abby would agree, because he married Abby and they are two different people.

Brittney is the third wheel. This can’t end well.

That's my suspicion. They obviously can't legally have a plural marriage. But then again they could have such a ceremony but only one of the girls' names on the paperwork.

I mean they don't have options for a legal poly marriage or some harem multi-wife practice, and they are registered as two persons in one body, I believe. In reality, yes, he can't marry just one. A weird situation law-wise.

It would have to be "Love me, love my sister", or it would never work.

Everything I've read or seen about them shows that they unsurprisingly have a lot of ways of coping with each other when they disagree, even when it is a major disagreement. What's interesting is that they use "I" as a single entity when they agree and consider each other separate entities when they don't.

I don't know what both think about pregnancy, but they're school teachers, so they definitely like kids. I wonder if pregnancy is even a possibility? Or maybe unwise if their condition is genetic.

That article is a ride. All sweet stuff until

The twins prospered and moved to Surry County, where they came to own more than one thousand acres of land and twenty-eight enslaved people.

Wild

They are bad-ass.

Nah, I think I'll respect their privacy. Though I'd read a book about them if they ever choose to publish one.

upvoted for having the balls to ask the important questions.

Given their mouths are in parallel and not series, it’s a topological impossibility.

Now some kind of xenomorph, with two mouths in series, maybe.

I'd imagine most are a lot more minor than this. Baby is born with a small growth that turns out to be a malformed limb of an incomplete/reabsorbed twin, doctors remove it quickly after birth, and the baby goes on to live a normal life.

I've heard of there being chimera people as well who go through most of their life assuming they're perfectly normal until they learn that their DNA in one part of their body doesn't match their DNA in another part of their body.

Yes but this is muuuch rarer because its a very clean case of it. Most of them pass away in early childhood.

A lot of them die in infancy, so you don't see them around.

Better third?

Wonder how Brittany feels about it.

I'm in my early 40s, retired, and never even been engaged. I kinda like it tho. It's pretty chill 🙂

Maybe you could date Brittany, I hear she's single too. :)

I heard they technically each hold a part time position and take turns who pays attention to the students.

This is literally the most one-sided marriage in history.

I think a better way of describing it is that the two heads have one body since they don't share a brain, making them two people.

Yea, they really are a throuple.

I do wonder how insurance works for them too, are they treated like two individuals or do they get the benefit of having a single body and are treated as an individual?

Obviously they would both feel labor pain. The interesting part is the hypotheticals that they would plan around. What if they both wanted to get pregnant at the same time? Would they just decide who the mom is based on who the dad is?
