Chang and Eng were joined by just a bit of liver and some skin. The best example of this would probably be the story of Chang and Eng Bunker, the “Siamese Twins,” so called because they were from Siam (now Thailand).

But those who are watching from afar cannot abide. Typically, people who are close to conjoined twins come to adjust and see them as different but normal they seem fairly untroubled by the idea of conjoined twins pursuing sex and romance. As I’ve told callers, although there are no real studies of the sex lives of conjoined twins, we can safely assume that conjoined twins want-and occasionally feel conflicted about wanting-sex, as we all do.īut not as conflicted as we singletons seem to feel about them having sex. At least it seems that way, judging by the number of reporters calling me to ask about the sex lives of conjoined twins since the TLC reality show Abby and Brittany went on the air several weeks ago. One thing we know for sure about the sexuality of conjoined twins: People who aren’t conjoined are fascinated by it.
