Are twins ever identical?

<< < (4/5) > >>

Process Denied:
I have two sets of identical twins--one set are boys and they are identical except for their personalities(opposite which is pretty realistic).  The other set are girls and they also identical they also have identical personality points but one is a Aries and the  other one is a Gemini.

Jadis:  But those twins aren't quite identical, are they?  Look at the eyebrows.  :)


I think that's only because one of them is smiling. Actually, you're right. The eyebrows are different, but they're still the closest thing to "identical" I've ever had.

No, they are identical.  The eyebrows are styled differently, but the facial structure is the same.  It's like having different hairstyles.  The "plucked" style eyebrows are thicker in front and taper sharply, while the "combed" style looks more natural and feathers finely into faded ends.

I have only one set of natural twin boys (born to one of my CAS Sims' daughters and Dirk Dreamer) who appear to be completely identical. 

But if anyone hasn't played Brandi Broke yet in their game, I played her recently for the first time and had her eat cheesecake (she has enough cooking skill points to make it) and since she is already pregnant (by herself, as I understand it, so she can have only boys) she will have twin boys who I would imagine can only look identical since they are opposite sex clones of her.  Anyway, mine look identical (different birth signs, though) and are adorable!!   ;D

The reason she is pregnant with boys is because EAxis coded it that way, for boys (I believe for twins as well). It's basically the only precoded birth in the game. It  has nothing to do with the fact that she is self-inseminated. Logically, if a girl were self-inseminated, she would only have girls as there is no Y chromosome to donate. 'Cause, ya know, that's possible right now.

Logic doesn't always have much to do with it when it comes to EAxis though, does it?!   ;)  Anyway, I know it wouldn't work that way in "real life" genetics, but I read that in Sims2 if you impregnate someone with themselves using the spawn cheat (or Sim Modder??) that they will always have an opposite sex child (don't know why or if it's true) with their own hair/eye/skin color because all genes for those things would come from them only (makes sense).  I haven't tested it myself though as I haven't done much with all the boolprop cheats yet...  I have also read that other people have had Brandi give birth to a single boy, not twins.
