    Adriellen Barbosa Lima, 22, who was shot and killed in Mineiros, in southwestern Goiás, became known for a rare case of twins with different fathers. At the time, the young woman was 19 years old, and her pregnancy resulting from heteroparental superfecundation was the 20th such case recorded worldwide up to that point.

    Adriellen was killed on April 20 at a house near the Buena Vista housing development. Joelson Ribeiro da Conceição, 23, the young woman’s partner, is the prime suspect in the crime. As of the latest update to this report on Wednesday (29), he had not been located by the police.

          It’s not about the enjoyment, it’s about the dehumanization. She’s not a slut to be used. She’s a person.

          Now, who wants to join me in triple teaming this dude’s ass? Let’s go! Colon party, baby!

            I wanted to point out cheating is straight up evil. Then got back to image and checked…nowhere there is info about her being married. Or any other context.

            And no, didn’t want to support dehumanisation, just point out calling a cheater slut isn’t that shocking, regardless of sex. But we don’t even have context for that lol.

                Being too innocent for this world is the first for me lol. I assumed that due to first comment, why else call her slut?

                Damn. Feels weird to be the naive/innocent one for once. xD

      I know you’re joking but I’ve heard of weirder in my family, a majority of the time we pop out looking pale and pink but on rare occasions some native DNA will come to the surface and they come out tan. Hasn’t happened in a couple too many generations so I suspect the native blood has become too thin but with an ethnically mixed enough population this could happen relatively frequently.

          Native American, most of my ancestoral branches have had good relationships with the tribes we’ve encountered over the last 500 years give or take since the oldest American branch has been here. Sometimes we intermarried, hell at least one branch outright became fully integrated into the Cherokee, got some ancestors in one of their grave yards back east and have some pictures of my last ancestor born amongst them.

          Best I get out of the deal is that I tan a bit better than your average person of non-Metis Scottish diaspora.

      To add to the other comment, albino babies have not been treated kindly in the past

        A lot of people haven’t been treated nicely because of some gene defect. And albino doesn’t even come with any mayor disabilities.

    That’s honestly cool - not cool she was killed, that is tragic. But personally I’d have been thrilled to get a variety pack like that, nature is so interesting and they’d both be my kids regardless of who fathered them.

        A threesome baby though? I guess guys have to worry, but women know they are the mother. A lot of the bad stuff in the world has come from men trying to control women to make sure they are the biological father of their kids. So setting that aside, it just is cool to me - cats have litters like that, step siblings. Humans usually don’t.

    So, not twins in the biological sense then? Is it not so that a fertilised egg must split and then two babies develop from that one egg for them to become twins? This is two separate eggs being fertilised from different men in a short time frame. All they have done is share the womb.

      and sometimes they are. and it is really their business, but it is why we invented contraception.

        The sluttiness is rarely the complaint. It’s the ones who promise faithfulness we hate. Be your slutty self but be real about it. This isn’t about women, it’s about people - it goes for men too.

    What’s the cut-off for “nature”? I mean, it’s not like DNA tests grow wild on the PCR plains, and it seems to me that the DNA test was the “tattle tale”.

    I thought twins were always split from the same egg. Great and my only news source for learning, shit posts.

      I think that’s just identical twins, but fraternal twins are two separate eggs being fertilized, which is how you can have twins of different sexes

      The concept of “twins” is far older than any knowledge of eggs (in mammals) and sperm cells. Two babies come out at the same time, language decided to call those twins.

        Thanks for the knowledge! I’ve been walking around knowing that Twins and Identical Twins are different; yet thinking that sex differences were developed post fertilization, like we do some in-vitro reptile shit, hahaha

        Mental apologies to my AP bio teacher, who probably taught me better! He took great pleasure in publicly slaughtering transphobic ideology, before it was cool.
