Do you ever think it would be fun to be a twin or to have identical twins?

I think twins are so cute whether babies or grown. Some seem to enjoy looking so much like their siblings while others resent it and I often wonder why sometimes they turn out so differently even though thy have identical genes and the same environment. What are your thoughts?

It might be alright. I could get into a lot of mischief and play some great pranks if I had an identical twin. I can be a laugh. But at the same time I enjoy being unique. I won’t mind having identical twins. I just hope I’ll be able to tell them apart myself.

I don't think I would like to have a twin, identical or otherwise. I am a person in my own right and although from a large family who were all bought up together we are very different people. I sometimes think that the only thing we have in common is our parentage.

My roommate was a twin, not identical. She said it was fun in high school, cause they still look a lot alike, so they would be able to go to each other's classes.
I would like to have twins, but not identical. I think looking like someone else would take a little away from their personal idenity. I mean people would confuse them for each other.

Back in 1983 when I was going to College, I had 3 friends who were identical triplets. It was quite interesting trying to keep them all seperated. In a way, I think it would have been Fun to be an identical twin so I could have like switched classes, etc. and see if anyone noticed.

I do not think that I would prefer to be a twin, but of course it is an experience that I have not had and so it is impossible to be certain.
I do have a brother, and I have an excellent relationship with him, so I can see any benefits if we had been twins.
As for having identical twins, I can not imagine how the parents differentiate at a very early age before the children know their own names. This would be a totally confusing state of affairs.

I have brothers that are twins. I alway thought I wanted twins untill I had my second son . There was 18 between the boys.I felt like twins I had for a while. I wanted a boy and a girl. I would have named them Hascal and Hattie. That is what my great grandparents were named. I always thought those name went together so nice

I would LOVE to have been a twin. I have a brother 2 years older than me and when we were in school a lot of people thought we were twins. It was a lot of fun messing with people.
But to share a life with someone that is so much like you would be exciting! I think they may be different because they try to in some ways so they can have their own individuality. When actually if you watch their mannerism it will be the same only the things they can control can be different. That is like trying not to be like your Mother or Father but so many people tell you that you are just like one of them.
None of us wants to be like anyone else, but it is ok if someone else is like us. I guess it is just human nature to try to be an individual.

twin are cute iether identical or un-identical, i have a twin cousin, both boys, they are cute, and very naughty, i think it is in the genes of the parents, if the blood line of your parents or relatives has twin, there is a big possibility, than you bear a twin too..
