Yes I meant two identical twins having a baby together.

Yes It would be wrong, but I'm just asking a question.

  1. It's impossible for identical twins to have a baby together, they're always the same s*x!


  2. No. You have to take into account that the different genetics from both sets of parents.

    Unless you're talking about two identical twins having children together... but that's just wrong.

    I think you need to explain the question a little better.

  3. possibly but the children may look like the other parent more to the ones who are twins

  4. Only if they already look alot alike. My husband and I (not twins) look similar (coloring, hair, eyes). When the kids are with me people say they all look like me, same when with my husband. In reality the girls favor me and our son favors my husband. My two twin friends have kids and all of them look like a mix of their parents, but not identical to anyone. My sister's kid looks like a mini clone of her, except the hair color.

  5. If a set of twins is a boy and a girl, then they are not identical. Identical twins are either 2 boys or 2 girls. Bit of a bizarre question!

  6. Technically, I would suppose so, but you'd need cutting-edge IVF techniques, an advanced qualification in gene-splicing  and a very, very good lawyer!

    Good question! have a star.

  7. Let's hope this is a purely philosophical question. Due to epigenetic modification (changes in gene expression that don't change the DNA itself, usually environmental) this would be impossible. And then there is also the problem of the parents being different genders. Monozygotic (identical) twins are never the same s*x, ergo "two identical twins having a baby," at least in the traditional sense of "having a baby," does not even make sense. So, no, the baby would not be identical to both parents.

  8. Identical twins could never have a baby together because identical twins are always the same s*x.

  9. do you look identical to your parents?
