Hahah no. And we're also identical twins too. She has a husband and two kids.

Though besides our gender and sexuality we are practically the same.
The story is the same, I've just personalized the name.

There seems to be several twins/triplets whom identify as trans - coincidence or something more? According to Google, in the US in 2001 3.1% of all births were twins with the figure in Europe roughly half that. A quick count of this thread ~ roughly 12 different posters, reveals 25% of whom are multiples. Interesting?  :eusa_think:

I was born 2 months early. I barely had lungs! My mom tells me horror stories of the machines that I needed to survive and how they'd go off in the middle of the night cause I'd stop breathing.

Yep born at 6 months weighing 500g. And about the size of an average soup tin. Mum made a huge fuss. it was in russia and I was declared unfit to live because I was apparently to premature. But im here today, a little strange but here. Hmm the systems changed a lot now. Now the nurses dont get to decide whos fit to live and who isnt. Everyones given a right to it. :)
things dont change, they merely rearange into that which they already are.

Not premature but I was about 2 weeks early... my mom said I just wanted to be an Aquarius as I was born the last day of Aquarius and if I'd waited 6 more hours would've been a Pisces  :P

Weird how many people are premature though, maybe there is a link between that and being trans.  Actually I don't even know how often babies are born prematurely... time to do some research.
;D

I was born a couple weeks premature, and my mom was born, I think a month premature.

It would be interesting to to a formal survey of trans-people, to see if there is any difference in rates of birth-complications from the general population. One theory about ->-bleeped-<- is that it originates with a hormonal imbalance in utero.
