Just something I'd been thinking about for a while...

How many (if any) of you are twins? If so, are you identical? Fraternal? Do you get along? Does your twin post here as well?

Personally, I'm an identical twin.

I am not a twin, but I am presently conducting a study of twins where we examine the brains of monozygotic (MZ, identical) and dizygotic (DZ, fraternal) twin pairs in order to estimate how much of certain brain function that is genetically and environmentally determined respectively It's a very interesting study that has already received a lot of attention although it's not finished yet.

I have met several twin pairs, and it's fascinating how extremely close some of the MZ pairs are, they call each other several time a day, they speak in "we" form, just as some old married couples, they choose to live in the same neighbourhood, they choose similar educations and careers. Others are more like any siblings, but it's certainly quite special to be MZ twins!

My cousins are twins, and their birthday is EXACKLY the same date as mine
(or maybe the other way around, since they are 9 years older than me)
Now, if that isn't weird, then I don't know what wierd is

Very interesting!
But how are you conducting this study?
Do you also compare MZ's who lived together all life with MZ's who have been seperated? To see if the differrence in enviroment/social place are important for them
Are there any "pre-conclusions" of the study?

Well I have another one kinda in the same lane (or maybe it's just spam, you decide)

My name is Helge, and my fathers name is Arne. Now, my brother married this girl whose fathers name is Helge, and whose grandfathers name was Arne.

It's crazy...

Twins? Are you hot? Is your twin male? If so, can I have you and/or your twin?

A friend of mine has a twin brother. They sometimes fight, but at the same time they seem pretty close.

Yeah, TM, can you post a pic of you and your brother?
