I read about these bitches, they are not ok.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago (2 children)

What in particular is so bad of I may ask?

[–] [email protected] 57 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Just googled them. They seem to be twins to a worrying degree. If something happens to one, it has to happen to both of them, including unnecessary medical procedures. They seemed to really go off the deep end when realising they might not get pregnant together.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Being twins really got in their head huh.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

It's their entire identity

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

I had to end a relationship with a twin when her sister got pregnant. I was in no situation to support a child then if it could be avoided, and I just knew there was a "accident" coming soon. She managed to get pregnant from some guy less than 2 months later.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If it doesn't really harm them, then what does it matter?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

The mental state is the problem... imagine one of them suddenly dies.

You decide. How they try to say the same thing at the same time and fail at it is particularly funny for me

[–] [email protected] 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sheesh their mom seems so done with them. Also yeah the saying things at the same time is really weird. The pther just randomly daying words to match her sister.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It seems one needs to raise twins with a healthy dose of individuality or risk them becoming emotionally stunted in their development and being overly dependent on one another. Weirdly, this is the second time I've seen a video of Australian twins who are way too in to it

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Omg they are really insane! Also ben has NO clue what's going on. He just sits there like "I have no idea how I got into this situation or how to get out, pls help."

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

There is something seriously wrong with them... that man needs to LEAVE ASAP!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

How bizarre!

This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

two pairs of them.

When you apply so much makeup you enter the uncanny valley.

Ben is fucked. And not in a good way.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago

*not only in a good way.

Am I the only one that thinks Ben has won the lottery? What am I missing??

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Do watch some of the videos posted above.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Oh god. Aside from the odd need to be extremely identical, I found them annoying in the first 5 mins. I can't imagine having them around regularly. Wow.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 11 months ago

If you’re lucky enough to date a Ben, you don’t ask questions, either. I dated one. He left me for something called an Allison. 😞

[–] [email protected] 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Last time I disappointed two people that bad was at dinner with my parents.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Believe you me, it's better to disappoint your parents than make them proud asf. They don't leave you alone anymore. BTW happened by accident and lies, from which i can't back out again. I'm so stupid.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I’m a Lemmy commenter, not the therapist that you might need.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 11 months ago

Ben said nothing. "Help me" said his eyes.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

I saw these guys on some show back during Discovery's slide into trash content. IIRC they got plastic surgery to even out some minor variations to become more identical.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That’s weird and kinda fucked up. Sharing a partner with your sister is closer to incest than you should be comfortable with

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

My siblings and I had enough trouble sharing toys or snacks without getting into a fight.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Yeah. Like I’m very poly and my wife and I don’t have vetos or anything but if she started dating my sister I don’t know who I’d yell at first.

And with identical twins it’s somehow grosser. Like fraternal twins already need effort in parenting to ensure they’re not at risk of codependency with each other, and with identical twins there’s this cultural force of treating them like they’re interchangeable. It’s really fucked up.
