Why do twins are amusing?

you know, i want to have twin baby, girls or boys, but i'm afraid if it come out a siamese twin. the kids will suffer alot until they're old. i have a sister who's a year older than me, but when we're just little kids, lots of people thought that we're twins, because we're almost look a like, and my mom always bought us same clothes, same shoes, and same things.

i think they are amazing. they are a unique walk of like. i have 4 year old twin cousins and they arent identical but its still cool to see how they act with eachother. they know eachother so well, its weird.

I don't know why people find twins so interesting to look at. I am a twin myself and hate being told how much I look like my sister etc. People are always looking for you similarities rather than your differences and classing you together as if you are only one person and I hate that.

It's a good question... Identical twins are pretty rare and so I think that is part of the attraction. I have non-identical twins and I don't understand what the fuss is about! When they were just born and I tried to go shopping in WalMart or the grocery store with my double stroller, I would continually get stopped! Yes, they are cute and they are babies, but just because they are the same age (and shared a womb for 8.5 months) doesn't make them any more special... does it? (Of course, **I** think they're special! But sometimes when people first glance they only notice one baby, and say 'Awww... a baby.'. But when they see the 2nd baby, it's: "WHAT! You have TWINS! WOW!" I've always wondered why double the baby gets quadruple the attention. I can't imagine how families with quads could manage!)
