I dont get it. Why can't they be identical?
Identical twins are of the same sex
Yeah...that's not true brah. You can has identical twins of different genders.
Maybe we should ask the doctor who lost 2 kg in 9 days about identical twins of different genders. I am just a ballerina here (sigh)
Is 'brah' a female version of 'bro'?
Nah I just used it for a generic "mate" "buddy" kinda deal.
In some cases the egg has 3 sex cells, so for example XXY so when split it ends up XX & XY hence the two genders. it's still monozygotic.
According to the scientists, it is possible. But, it is so rare that is almost non-existent.
Yep rare but not impossible.
It is also possible that they are conjoined since they are identical. Would you assume that though?
eh? no. Why would I assume that lol
Exactly. No reason for that girl in the story to assume that identical twins were of opposite genders0 -

Um.....
girl is told there are twins of two different genders. (when most people hear twins they naturally assume identical)
girl asks if twins are identical
girl gets ribbed in "dumbest thing you've ever heard" thread for something that isnt actually that dumb
I no get your argument.

Considering that only a few identical twins of opposite genders were ever documented throughout history, and that the girl mentioned was a nurse, it is not very smart. She could've as well asked if they were conjoined or had tails.
Anyway, I tried.1 -

This is a pointless argument anyway because we dont know what she was thinking when she asked. That being said, If she had asked if they were conjoined she would have had a straight "No" and maybe an odd look. However, it's been presented as if shes said something sooooo very stupid but in fact she hasn't and that's only due to others lack of knowledge. Rarity is not a factor in right vs wrong.
and yep i feel the same way, i tried

The most stupid question ever, but nevertheless frequently, asked: Are you asleep?
I mean, what kind of answer is expected?
Especially if the correct answer would be "Yes"?3 -

I suspect "truther" websites (which although are also crazy, at least has threads of plausibility sewn in there to make the theories appear legitimate, especially for those who were rightly suspicious about the Iraq war) are a bit of a gateway drug to some of these people and then every possible conspiracy posed is given some merit especially if it sounds like some Matrix-esque hollywood plot where only super smart special people (like them) are "woke".
If you want to really jump down the rabbit hole look up the Mandela effect on Shazam
That's because peoples memories are constantly falling through from parallel dimensions where Mandela died in prison and where Shazam was a movie about a genie.
It is very dimensionist of you to disregard their true memories.1 -

Basically anything like that said to me is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
That's extremely rude.

Played softball with a guy, really nice but not too bright. Was always talking about his uncle but never said his name. The team assumed his uncle must be someone well known in the community. Finally, someone asked him, who's your uncle? His reply, "My daddy's brother."2
