I can’t help it. I do, however, hope that he’s a decent and upstanding guy.

Why would it make you think less of him?

I could be wrong, but my gut reaction is that he’s in it for some sort of kink. I’d like to think he truly fell for one—or the other, not that he wants to be that guy.

People used to say that about people marrying outside their race or normal height people marrying dwarves. There’s something wrong with your “gut”.

Yeah. People never have bad motives, and this situation is just like those other situations.

🙄🙄

I mean do you have any evidence the husband has any bad motives?

Getting married is a big commitment. If he refused to marry Abby, I would think he had bad motives.

So these women should never get married?

I didn’t say that. Stop being dramatic. As I said, I hope he’s a good guy.

General consensus is that it’s likely a three way relationship but they he cant legally marry both of them. That’s really the only way to make sense of this

That being said, they aren't here for my comfort and I'm genuinely happy for them that they have a nice life and one or both has found love.

They are human beings like you are a human being. They didn’t choose to be co-joined twins. Why are you squeed out by people who didn’t choose their circumstances but graduated from college and teach 5th grades?

Stop pretending that they look normal. They don’t. Of course they didn’t choose their circumstances. Neither did the elephant man. But they still look odd.

Nobody is pretending they look normal. Lots of people don’t look “normal.” What is “normal,” btw? Civilized people don’t base their opinions of people on their looks.

I bet someone, somewhere, thinks you look odd.

Why do you assume bad motives?

Weird. The twins aren't going to have a long life exactly so—whatever.

Seems like a great guy to me!

I had never heard of these twins but it reminds me of a male set of conjoined twins from the 1800s who also married two sisters:

This is probably the first plural marriage situation that kind of makes sense to me - if all are game why not? Love is love.

DP- come on now you can’t be serious. There’s literally only one other set of conjoined twins with their same condition- connected in the same way- alive in the world right now. You mean to say that if they were walking down the street you wouldn’t look twice? Of course they look odd. It’s an odd situation.

I wonder if the twins think of themselves as being kinky because they're in a throuple, or this was just the only way they could do the traditional thing of getting married.

OK I think this circumstance is very interesting because I’m not understanding how the orgasm/mental connection works here… But you can’t possibly think they’re doing this for a kink! They’re too living human beings, who deserve to be happy and fall in love. It’s a highly unusual situation and hopefully this guy is just super open-minded. He has a daughter from another relationship.

Why do you need to understand that?

+1. He probably fell in love with Abby first and then the twin.
