did you happen to catch I Am My Own Twin on TLC last night.

it was a show about human chimerism.


fascinating.


i looked to see if it was scheduled to be re-aired, but i didn't see anything. they'll show it down the road i'm sure.....

This article (http://www.ivf.net/artman/publish/article_352.shtml) uses the term "she-males", don't search that term at work! :D

[GDC]

No, I missed it but will make it a point to catch it later.

this program focused mainly on 2 cases of individuals who were chimeric but otherwise normally appearing and functioning (esp. sexually) adults.

in these two cases, the fused embryos were of the same sex so there were no obvious signs at birth. instead of them being born as conjoined twins or normal dizygotic twins, they essentially had a duel DNA profile.

anyway, it was really interesting....... kind of a long-shot, but it may happen more than we think....

So basically two people in one body, so if your wife was a chimera it would be a menage au tois every time you did it?
