The Twin Sister Are Happy and Love Each Other

Lupita and Carmen said they were happy being conjoined twins. According to Lupita, if a separation surgery had been carried out, one or both of them would have died, or they would have spent the rest of their lives in Intensive Care Unit.

Regardless of their physical state, Lupita and Carmen said they had a happy childhood. However, Carmen noted that people would be mean to them when they were in school, and the popular kids tended to infantilize them.

She added that sometimes people would speak to them like babies because they were not used to interacting with persons with disabilities.

Carmen noted that she and Lupita had the same friends growing up. She said they were still friends with their childhood buddies. "Lupita has really good intuition about people, so if she likes them, I like them," said Carmen.

Aside from sharing friends, the twin sisters said they share clothes because they have the same taste in fashion. Carmen said they have the same style but have attempted to create their own unique looks.

Carmen also revealed that since they were five years old, the two have had a neighbor who would sew both their clothes. The neighbor made all of the twin girls' scrubs, dresses, shirts, and other garments.

However, the two also have differences as sometimes they do not keep their hair the same length. The twins wear glasses, but Lupita has completely different ones from Carmen. Lupita also has a piercing on the side of her nose, while Carmen has a septum ring.

The twins have their own dreams. Lupita dreams of becoming a comedy writer. Carmen described her twin sister as funny and the one who does most of the talking.

On the other hand, Carmen is in college studying to be a veterinary nurse. Her twin sister also wants to work in the same field but as a technician.

Carmen revealed that she and Daniel have already discussed getting engaged, but they want to live together first.

Carmen and Lupita enjoy spending time together and never tire of each other's company. When they come home tired at the end of a busy day, they both focus on their own devices. Carmen said:

"I have my laptop to do schoolwork, and Lupita will put on headphones and listen to music or go on her phone."

The twin sisters added that they are used to spending time together because they have been conjoined their whole lives. According to Carmen, missing independence is hard for them as they have never experienced it.

In addition to always spending time together, the two absorb each other's feelings. Lupita said she can feel when Carmen is about to cry or is anxious as her stomach drops.

Carmen also revealed that when they were six, they both had nightmares about falling off a plane and when they woke up, they had fallen off from their bed.

She added that in another incident, they were in a mall, and she felt a strange feeling in her stomach that she knew originated from her sister:

"A man was pretending to film his daughter, but he was really filming us. I didn't notice, but Lupita did. She's way more observant."

The twins said their life has been fulfilling as they enjoy it like any other person by going to concerts, watching movies, and traveling on planes. Carmen noted that they want to go to the gym and work out so that they can carry large dogs, as is the norm in their veterinary career.

However, the twin sisters said they have also gone through difficult moments. Carmen said that sometimes they get nasty comments on social media from people who ask them deeply personal questions:

"A lot of people aren't used to…setting or creating boundaries when it comes to our disability. But you have to remember: We're not just conjoined twins, we're people."

Carmen's Boyfriend Was Mocked on Social Media

Carmen has a boyfriend, but her twin sister is asexual. Lupita said Carmen had dreams of getting married. Carmen and her boyfriend, Daniel, have dated for two and a half years. The couple met on Hinge in 2020.

According to Carmen, she never hid the fact that she was a conjoined twin on Hinge. This information caused her to receive several messages from guys with fetishes. Carmen added that she has social anxiety and mostly cancels dates at the last minute, but she was calm on her way to meet Daniel for the first time:

"I knew right off the bat that Daniel was different from the others, because he didn't lead with a question about my condition."

Carmen revealed that she and Daniel have already discussed getting engaged, but they want to live together first. She noted that she was glad Lupita and Daniel were good friends. Carmen said that when they go on dates, sometimes Lupita picks the activities or places to go for dinner:

"It's funny because I stay up later than Lupita, but when Daniel sleeps over, I fall asleep quickly, and he stays up talking with her."

Carmen added that she and Daniel love kids but do not want to have any. She noted that she and Lupita have endometriosis and are on a hormone blocker that stops them from menstruating. However, she said she liked being a dog mom.

Daniel and Carmen are in love, but that hasn't stopped people from attacking their relationship on social media. Users have left vile comments on social media, as one person said Daniel was lucky to have two girls for the price of one. Daniel was particularly attacked when someone commented, "sick and shameful, and God hates sins."

One social media user also targeted Daniel as he said Carmen's boyfriend had scored "a double header." Other users claimed not to understand the relationship Carmen and Daniel had. "… I'm angry with those who understood," a user said.

However, Carmen and Daniel have received positive comments from people who said, "They look so happy," and another person who said she thinks the love between Carmen and Daniel is amazing. An individual also condemned those who had posted negative comments:

"Comments actually make me feel sick...The jokes you may make really show your character, and I'm sad for our superficial future on this planet."

Other people had encouraging comments for the twins, as one user said she hoped the twins could be separated someday. She called them "Pretty girls." Another user noted that the twins were beautiful women.

Carmen and Lupita get negative comments on social media, but this has not stopped them from living their lives as they constantly share pictures of themselves having fun with their family on special occasions such as Christmas and birthdays.
