7. One Preferred Water, the Other Preferred Beer
Twins are known to have very different personalities frequently. In fact, they have long been the subject of experiments to determine which is stronger, nature and the genetic disposition that a person is biologically inclined to, or nurture and the environment within which a person is reared. Even conjoined twins, like Giacomo and Giovanni Tocci, are tempted to have very different personalities. This reality became apparent to many people when the television show Abby and Brittany aired on TLC, revealing the day-to-day lives of conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel. One challenge that conjoined twins face regularly is ensuring that their habits, likes, and interests do not conflict with those of the other.
Giacomo and Giovanni got along with each other better than most brothers, seeing as it was more of a necessity to daily life than a duty to family. Giacomo loved to draw, but if Giovanni found a problem with the drawing, he would kick it off his brother’s knee. They sometimes were known to quibble about which language to speak, seeing as they fluently spoke at least French, German, Italian, and probably also English. Furthermore, Giovanni enjoyed a good beer, while his brother was more prone to have a glass of water.
