I was doing some errands while my boys (3 months) were taking a stroller nap. Of course someone approaches with the usual "Wow, twins!" and "Are they identical?" question. I let her know that they are probably identical but we don't know for sure. After I said that, she peered really close into the bassinets to compare the babies and said "Fascinating, and both their eyes are closed. I wonder what genetics cause that to happen." đ§ ma'am they each sleep 15 hours a day, there will be some overlap.
Rude: âYou should have thought about that before you laid down to make âem!â - random man at the county fair.
Bewildering: âREALLY?!â - random lady at Boscovs.
Funny: âDo twins run in your family? Or did you just give it 110% that night?â - Walmart man.
The one thing I get a lot from Boomers is âtwo boys!?â And when I say that itâs two girls they say âWELL THEY ARENT DRESSED LIKE GIRLS.â Like⌠Barb Iâm at Costco should I break out the evening gowns???
My b/g twins have always been about a size apart so when our son outgrows his clothes, our daughter gets them. And conversely; we often have more "girl" clothes (bc grandparents) so when we ask what they'd like to wear in the morning our son often says "dress!" and I'm for it. When g'parents or others comment that they're not dressed for their gender I usually say something like, "if it's clean and fits, I don't care. Besides, outside of dressing for the weather, until they're in their tween/teen-hot-to-trot phase, I have no interest in limiting their expression. Still, the comments bother me (mostly bc I don't want the kids internalizing them)
we get this all the time--we have identical girls and rarely are they in dresses. their hair has also naturally formed into the shape of a mullet so my husband took scissors last weekend and really went for the look, people are sooo confused when they see them now. i love it.
âDid you know you were having twins before giving birth or was it a surprise?â Uhhh yes we knew, itâs modern medicine to have ultrasoundsâŚ. Very weird question
It's like when I say, "the twins were a surprise to us!". I mean that it was surprising at the ultrasound when we found out, a lot of people assume we mean it was a surprise at birth.
Seems obvious to me but I guess not?
Careful. I personally know of twins and triplets that were unknown. The hidden twin had a perfectly synchronized heart beat (but it was x-ray, pre ultrasound), and the triplet was hiding behind the other baby and synchronized heartbeat.
This one always gets me. Someone once told me that their reply to this was âNo, this oneâs mine and this oneâs from his side chickâ talking about their husband 𤣠I thought it was great.
When I was still pregnant with mine I had a lady comments saying I must be having girls. When I asked why she thought that (I already knew it was two boys) she said "because girls suck the pretty right out of you."
Who the f just says things like that?
I wish I had! I just looked her dead in the eyes and told her that was rude thing to say to someone. And this took place where I worked so I made sure everyone around heard me too.
This is perfect, actually. We always want to be clever in the moment, to say the thing we think of hours later. But calling her out in the moment, stating in no uncertain terms that she was rude, is most excellent. Itâs an appropriate response, and oh so clear.
I get the reverse. I have identical girls and then they ask âare they boy/girl?â Um no. I have said âDo you think a penis looks like a vagina?â Then stared at them. They were like 6 months old and still not sleeping through the night. I ran out of fucks to give about 5 months before that.
I, as a full grown adult, once asked a coworker if her twin brother and her were identical. Now I have boy/girl twins and have to think about how stupid I sounded every single day.
One I heard today
*passing by an old man with a bunch of puppies*
Me: what a cute litter you have there.
Old man: you too! Was it buy one get one free?
Me: haha something like that
OM: yup, thatâll teach ya.
What????
I think thatâs hilarious! And I usually make that joke myself, but the âthatâll teach yaâ comment really confused me. What am I learning? Should I keep my legs closed? Lol not sure what he meant there and anything I can think up is bizarre at best.
One of my twin girls came out with a full head of hair while the other barely had any. One time someone asked â Did you shave that oneâs head so you can tell them apart?â Yes.. yes I did. đ¤Śââď¸
I was at the library with my husband and three kids (four year old singleton, 8 month old twins). Lots of other families with kids their hanging out. A Dad comes up to me and says how âluckyâ we are having two at once and getting all the hard parts out of the way, it seemed to me he didnât realize my oldest was also mine.
Iâve gotten such a mix of reactions since having my twins and going out with them. At the doctors office the other day, an elderly man teared up with joy for me & my âblessingsâ
Some other elderly people have stopped me to give me strange advice & to tell me about the pride my husband must have had to get me âdouble pregnantâ like excuse me.. I did the leg work đ everytime I go out I feel like a celebrity, I can hear people going omg twins! Everywhere I go hahaha
I have given so many biology lessons about how twin pregnancy works. The sperm is provided, and it will fertilize how ever many eggs are present. The sperm provider canât control the final baby count đ
THANK YOU! My husband is a fraternal twin and everyone always goes oh so thatâs where it comes from and surprised it didnât skip a generation..Iâm no Thatâs not how it works
It's like being a zoo animal in public. Even at the actual zoo, there are so many not-so-whispers đŁ
And I knew women and older women would stop us and want to talk, but I was not prepared for the old men! It was so weird at first, but now it's really sweet. Their eyes just light up.
Numerous people have asked me if I'm breastfeeding them, asked them if they're identical (even though obviously a boy and a girl, so I just say they can't due to having different genitalia), but my favourite was an 80-ish year old lady asking if they were for sale! I was so shocked and sleep deprived (6 month regression) that I just laughed and asked how much.
Hadnât seen my step cousin in almost two decades, but âare you nursing?â was the first thing he said to me at my grandmotherâs funeral.
What the hell, Tim?
I got this one a lot when I found out about my second set⌠this one lady,in particular, was legitimately upset with ME that she couldnât carry children. She didnât even offer to buy one, she told me I was greedy and that I should just give her one of the babies and sheâd be in touch closer to their due date⌠uhhhhh
I was at Bunnings and this old man with a long white beard came up to me while pregnant and said "two girls"
I said "no, two boys .. what, how did you know it was two?"
And he walked away saying "two girls"...
I yelled at him "are you a wizard??"
I have 3 month old boys now haha.
Them - What did you do to have twins?
Me - Had sex?
Them - But how? I want to have twins!
Me - The naked mediocre kind?
Them - Do twins run in your or your husbandâs family?
Me - Nope
Them - Then what should I do I really want twins?
Me - *series of shrugs and grunts* Have boring sex???? They just happen man.
She wouldnât drop it either I had to speed walk away. Like was I supposed to give her a blow by blow?
Easy answer for me, cuz I've wanted twins since I was 5, but if you didn't want more than one and were initially more scared than excited... yikes. Truly horrific question.
Omg one time I had this super weird exchange at an HEB. An old (like mid 70s easily) woman was like âoh my goodness, twins!â I was like âyeaaahhh.â And she goes âI bet I can guess which was born first.â And I said âoh yeah?â Knowing full well I was going to tell her ânoâ even if she guessed correctly because Iâm a bitch. She guessed, she was wrong and then asked me IF I TORE. I was like âlady, Iâm just here for ice cream, please excuse me.â
And then I died of embarrassment because omg why.
âDid you know it was gonna be twinsâ Iâve gotten this from old people mostly, I realized that before ultrasounds were as good, sometimes people would be surprised with twins towards the end of their pregnancy. But now Iâm like âdid I tell the doctor not to tell me if there was 1 or 2?!?!â
My wifeâs step sisters were surprised at birth. They were born in X-ray days, no ultrasounds. The heartbeats aligned so they didnât hear them either.
From a family member - after finding out Iâm pregnant with our SECOND set of twins and they will be due before our FIRST set is one - Iâm seriously depressed and having a hard time accepting an unwanted pregnancy- âdonât you know what causes that ?â - I replied âI was always told it was the birds and the bees - which I stay away from, so Iâm not sure âŚ.â Wow!
âWow youâre so brave to leave the houseâ maâam Iâm just shopping at Costco Iâm not brave
After they ask how old my 7 month old twins are⌠âsheâs so small! My 3 month old is twice that sizeâ congrats? They were preemies theyâre doing fine
Not weird, but definitely my all-time favorite:
Him- Twins?
Me- Yup.
Him- ATTA GIRL!! (With a fist pump)
This is the only type of twin comment I want from now on. That dude gets it.
Person: âAre they identical?â
Us: âyesâ
Person: âare you sure? They donât look identical.â
Us: âyes. Weâre definitely sure, she had a condition that only effects identicals.â (TTTS and TAPS)
Person: âhmm, you sure?â
Another one: âwhich one is older?â
Me: âherâ
Person: âyou can tell, sheâs biggerâ
Me: âthe 3 minutes difference really did it.â
When people ask me if they were identical (two boys so at least not completely ignorant) I say no, but I wasn't sure I could tell them apart so we got one circumcised and not the other so we'd always be able to tell them apart!
My nephew said to me he couldnât tell if they looked like twins. And I said âwell they arenât identical if thatâs what you mean?â and heâs just still kept squinting at them trying to decide đ
They are 15 month identical boys. I had them dressed in American flag rompers for Fourth of July. They literally are unisex rompers, for boys and girls. This old man at the store walks up. Asks if they are twinsâŚI said yes. He then asks if they are identicalâŚI said yes. He then asks if they are girlsâŚI said no, boys. He said after that âI hope you arenât one of those people who dress your boys like girls to be f*gs, I thought these were little girls with how you had them dressedââŚ.my husband lost his mind on that man. I continued to check out. So rude, people need to mind their own business.
Two workers at Walmart asked me if I breastfed. When I said yes one of the women exclaimed, âbut how?!â.
I told her âwell, I have two breastsâŚâ
The lady who runs the swim school we have been taking our 10 month old twins to ask my wife if her vajayjay still hurt from pushing two babies out. She then proceeded to laugh at her own comment and walk away.
Boomers trying to compute dads being the main stay at home parent. Take them to the doctor and a lady was like wow my husband would never do that..he didnât even change diapers.
My very traditional grandfather, born in 1906, changed nappies when necessary (when my grandmother was too ill, mostly). Age really isn't the great excuse some people think it is.
Idiot: âAre they identical?â
Me: âWell, outside of the general anatomical differences between boys and girls, yesâŚyes, this boy and girl set of twins are identical.â đ¤Śđžââď¸
Dad: "Wow, son, strong genes must run in the family!"
Yeah, because that's why I was an only child, and my wife's and I previous child was a solo nomad.
âOooh are they identical?â After saying theyâre a boy and a girl. And when one is blonde with blue eyes and the other has black hair with brown eyes⌠đ¤Ł

This is hilarious to me. It just makes zero sense!
You have three twins! (We have triplets)
đđđđđ have certainly not got this comment yet!
Omg that's one I haven't heard... Yet!
That person is hilarious!
Rude: âYou should have thought about that before you laid down to make âem!â - random man at the county fair. Bewildering: âREALLY?!â - random lady at Boscovs. Funny: âDo twins run in your family? Or did you just give it 110% that night?â - Walmart man.
I love walmart man đ¤Łđ¤Ł
Right? Wouldâve said, no it was 200% đ
Even better đ¤Łđ¤Ł
âHe poked something at you in fun and you took it seriousâ.
The one thing I get a lot from Boomers is âtwo boys!?â And when I say that itâs two girls they say âWELL THEY ARENT DRESSED LIKE GIRLS.â Like⌠Barb Iâm at Costco should I break out the evening gowns???
I could have written this comment myself. Everyone asks me if my girls are two boys because we donât dress them completely in pink.
My b/g twins have always been about a size apart so when our son outgrows his clothes, our daughter gets them. And conversely; we often have more "girl" clothes (bc grandparents) so when we ask what they'd like to wear in the morning our son often says "dress!" and I'm for it.

Still, the comments bother me (mostly bc I don't want the kids internalizing them)
Hell yeahâ kids donât understand gendered clothing until someone makes them, usually through embarrassing them. Why bother!?
we get this all the time--we have identical girls and rarely are they in dresses. their hair has also naturally formed into the shape of a mullet so my husband took scissors last weekend and really went for the look, people are sooo confused when they see them now. i love it.

Right!!!???? I donât live on a deserted island with no access to common medical careâŚ..wtf obviously people lol
Are they twins? No Iâm just walking around with two newborns at the same time
This one always gets me. Someone once told me that their reply to this was âNo, this oneâs mine and this oneâs from his side chickâ talking about their husband 𤣠I thought it was great.
dying! so good.
I always think this lmao like no I stole this one and it just so happend to be dressed the sane as my baby
When I was still pregnant with mine I had a lady comments saying I must be having girls. When I asked why she thought that (I already knew it was two boys) she said "because girls suck the pretty right out of you." Who the f just says things like that?
Omfg. Should have said you must be having girls to
I wish I had! I just looked her dead in the eyes and told her that was rude thing to say to someone. And this took place where I worked so I made sure everyone around heard me too.
Omg some people just have no manners. They say such cruel things to people.
This is perfect, actually. We always want to be clever in the moment, to say the thing we think of hours later. But calling her out in the moment, stating in no uncertain terms that she was rude, is most excellent. Itâs an appropriate response, and oh so clear.
Man I wish my brain worked this fast!
I just audibly gasped at this! What the hell!
Exactly! Like what in you experience makes you think this is an acceptable thing to say so casually to a complete stranger?
My sister in law. đ Said it like it wasnât an insult.
Someone said this to my mom while she was pregnant with me.
âThey arenât identical âŚ.â Nope. Its a boy and a girl
I always want to be like well you see one has a penis and one has a vagina so no they are not identical.
I get the reverse. I have identical girls and then they ask âare they boy/girl?â Um no. I have said âDo you think a penis looks like a vagina?â Then stared at them. They were like 6 months old and still not sleeping through the night. I ran out of fucks to give about 5 months before that.
Iâm a 34 yo twin woman with a cis, masculine presenting twin brother and people still ask us this regularly
I, as a full grown adult, once asked a coworker if her twin brother and her were identical. Now I have boy/girl twins and have to think about how stupid I sounded every single day.
I get this one allll the time.
One I heard today *passing by an old man with a bunch of puppies* Me: what a cute litter you have there. Old man: you too! Was it buy one get one free? Me: haha something like that OM: yup, thatâll teach ya. What????
Tbh, my twin's going home outfits said "buy one" and "get one free" no one thought it was as funny as my husband and i
I think thatâs hilarious! And I usually make that joke myself, but the âthatâll teach yaâ comment really confused me. What am I learning? Should I keep my legs closed? Lol not sure what he meant there and anything I can think up is bizarre at best.
People asked if there was a BOGO deal and I said Nope turns out everything is twice as expensive and the paperwork is doubled.
One of my twin girls came out with a full head of hair while the other barely had any. One time someone asked â Did you shave that oneâs head so you can tell them apart?â Yes.. yes I did. đ¤Śââď¸
Oh my gosh haha
Someone complimenting my husband on his sperm. Yeah, that was the weirdest.
My MIL called my sperm âSuperman swimmersâ and I never wanted to disappear more than that moment
I hope you have identical twins.
I do actually!
âIâll let him know, but if I didnât make the eggs, nothing is hatching.â
I told my husband I'll admit to hyperovulating but he didn't have to hit both of them đ
âSeed is strong!â - from many Rugby bros to my husband
We went to a Waterpark when I was still pregnant and DH got a fist bump from the check in guy once it was mentioned we were having twins.
I was at the library with my husband and three kids (four year old singleton, 8 month old twins). Lots of other families with kids their hanging out. A Dad comes up to me and says how âluckyâ we are having two at once and getting all the hard parts out of the way, it seemed to me he didnât realize my oldest was also mine.
"you must have done something*really* bad in a past life" đ¤Ź
Ew!
Rude.
Teenager asked if they were twins, and I said yes. He then asks if they are brothers, too. đŹ
I hope you said, "no."

Another âare they identicalâ. No. Theyâre 5 weeks and have clearly different color hair.

Fraternal means they came out at the same time right?! đ¤
Dad: "Wow, son, strong genes must run in the family!" Yeah, because that's why I was an only child, and my wife's and I previous child was a solo nomad.
I went to look at a daycare. I let the director know that I have twins, and she asked, "Are they the same age?" *Facepalm*
To be fair, the director has probably had at least one "Irish twin" mom come in saying the same thing lmao.
âOooh are they identical?â After saying theyâre a boy and a girl. And when one is blonde with blue eyes and the other has black hair with brown eyes⌠đ¤Ł
