Unless 1 becomes accustomed to the left while the other uses the right while doing homework. Could do 2 projects at once.

It'd be difficult, but they could manage to find a way.
wtf this isn´t some marvel comic.
Good superhero idea. Or villain.

If one of the heads were to die would the body keep living?

^Depends on how controlling the body turn out. It may disable the limbs of 1 side.

Close this thread before War Man is condemned to hell. As for Macbeth, well, I don't think he believes in that mumbo jumbo anyway.

I wonder if both heads have equal control of the body. Say, one decides to hit the other, would they be able to stop each other before the punch lands? Can one be straight and the other one gay? Wonder what happens when they have to poop. So many questions...

There might be some, advantages. You have 2 minds instead of 1.
I have multiple computers, but it doesn't make my laptop any faster. I could jam two motherboards into a single box, but it won't double my speed.

To my knowledge, after a certain stage in development, even if it were possible to sacrifice one before, it would be fatal for both parties.
tazz.

Na but seriously. I remember two twins joined by their stomachs and there were many issues because they shared organs. Another was two joined by the heads.

I'm going to come up with a really wrong one here...

If you have sex with them (when they're obviously old enough), would that count as a threesome?

Considering this is China, there is no social system...

I'd like to know how the nervous system works, as well. Who controls what appendiges and when/how? Can one take control away from the other? Considering they both have a spine and a brain, I bet that complicates things. Then again, if one of the children is severely mentally handicapped, perhaps there will be a dominant twin that controls the whole show and the other is just along for the ride?

There have been enough cases, though, where conjoined twins such as these have led perfectly "normal" lives. Certainly there are hardships, but considering the number of success stories, I think it's possible. Hopefully they'll get the care they need so they don't die early. China's not renowned for its care of the sick and old, though...

They might be more likely to take care of 'special cases' though.

Nope. Care for mentally and physically handicapped people is among the worst in the world in China. I'm obviously referring to state care and not any private care that is paid for by families.

I would think something like this where its a huge deal and incredibly unique they might do something extra to show off to the world.  Since China does care quite a bit about their image...

It's only a big deal if it gets lots of media attention... all the raping that goes on in the DR Congo doesn't get reported on nearly as widely as it ought to, thus it remains an insignificant problem or a completely unknown problem.

yeah but this is something that would be little effort with big humanitarian reward - unlike something like that where its not as relatively easy to do something about

Yes, except the CCP has never been one to do anything logical...
