"Oh have you guys ever swapped places before?"

"Are you the smart twin or are you the sporty twin?"

I've had friends, like talking to me, and then being like, "Oh I thought you were Tope."

Like even our dad, he still gets us mixed up.

And then they start looking for identifiers.

They're like, "Hmm okay. Which one are you? Wait a minute, are you the one with the weird thing on his face?"

You're the bigger one and you're the like, more thinner one.

And some people have got us to stand back-to-back.

"Okay, you two stand right next to each other."

Like if our parents are buying us something we know it's for both of us.

Like our friends are like, "You can just share this present."

We used to have to kind of sit back-to-back to open our presents so the other one couldn't see one of them was keener than the other to get the present out.

People that get their own cakes don't appreciate it. Like we have to share the cake and share the candles.

Like if someone got us a DVD and that like sticker would be scratched out "2 for £10"!

Yeah we get that like every…like every other day.

They kind of come up to you in the street and they kind of give you this little eye, kind of like… "Oh yeah?"

The whole double-take…They'll be like, "Are you guys twins?"

And you're just like, "I know what's coming. I know what's coming."

Or they'll stop our mum and be like, "You're so lucky."

Yeah that was one of the first questions they ask: "Where's your twin?"

They always ask me as if I'm supposed to know where you are every minute of every day.

I don't know, maybe just some niceties first and then lead into, "Where's your brother? What's he up to now?"

Our hairlines receded at the same time, Yeah.

People get really invasive actually, yeah.

"When did you start your period? Who had sex first?"

The period question: "Who started their period first?"

"Do both of you know when each other have sex?"

Or, "Do you feel each other when that happens?"

You know, that question we get asked so many times! -so many times!

Do you think that because we're twins like all social convention goes out the window?

And incest is suddenly acceptable, it's not!

Yeah exactly you wouldn't have a threesome with your aunt!

We shared a womb, we're not going to share a partner as well.

First thing that everybody does and they're just like, "Can you feel each other's pain?"

And then they get us to like… they'll be like, "Okay what's she thinking her now? What's she thinking now?"

If someone's like, "Can you feel each other's pain?" We're like, "Yeah."

Yeah, yeah as far as we know, maybe there are some twins who are more connected.

People wanted to put us in a group: the smarter twin, the naughty twin, the good twin, the bad twin.

"Which one's the smarter twin? Oh  you're the smarter twin."

Like, teachers will always be like, "Are you the good one or the bad one?"

And they'll be like, "You look like the evil twin, I can see it."

Being a twin, you've always got someone there with you.

You know when you've first moved to your school and it's that awkward like, you're standing around because you don't know anybody.

It's like, you've always had… so whenever you go on holiday, you're guaranteed to have a friend there.

Like all these humans walking around by themselves. -Walking around by themselves.

With my friends they might not be available but I know she's always going to be.

I feel like everybody should have had, like got a twin.
