What's that theory about most left handers starting out in the womb as a twin?

How about this one;

Boy A and Boy B are identical.

Boy A has a child with Girl A.

Girl A accidently falls in love with Boy B (who is identical to the father of her child)

Girl A has a child with Boy B.


Half brother/cousin identical?

Same concept as earlier.
It's the same as how, Boy A and Girl A have child. Boy A and Girl A have second child. They are not identical even though exactly the same Mother and Father who still have the same genetic material.
If the above worked, then all brothers and sisters would be identical. The half-brother/cousin would have similar features.

Their looks will come from the combination of genes you and your future wife happen to pass down to them. And these will have come from each of your parents. And so on through the generations.

So, the looks come from a combination of the parents. It's not going to be the same combination every time, even if Mother and Father are the same. But, there would be distinct similarities.

Left handers started out in the womb as a twin. I think that's how it goes.

You wouldn't expect a normal couple to create the same child everytime they have a baby so there is no way two couples, although identical could create the same child as eachother.

I don't think my post makes sense but I know what I'm trying to say!

Saw a doco about some Twin town where basically everyone born there is a twin

They blamed some nazi doctor who was experimenting on the town back in the day

Josef Mengele is the name. Pretty interesting stuff.

Has anybody seen the results of two sets of identical twins having kids with other identical sets of twins?

I WANT TO KNOW

I WANT TO KNOW

They are, genetically speaking, siblings.

Edit: Oh, beat me to it. Nice photo also.

So, as left handers have been regarded as sinister maybe this means the evil twin survived.

If all the kids of identical twins matched with other identical twins turn out like this... Well, I'm completely okay with that.
