Thanks for the links - whoa... the bath thing was weird. Was that Edward ie. the better looking one nearest the window? Cos I think sometimes he seems more 'with it' than John and a bit more serious, and he was quite intense there.
it's like that idea of it being more like masturbation, you know? It's like John's body is Edward's body and vice versa, like there'd be no reason not to go further with their relationship because they see it in the same way they see touching themselves, or something. Does that make sense?
Yeah, it makes perfect sense - that's what I meant to say really, is that it's basically masturbation. (Although, ew, kinda, y/n?!)
It's like their parents never made much effort to encourage them to develop independently of each other. Yeah, but it's like you said - they never wanted to, so they probably wouldn't have. Jedward had a fly on the wall show where I live (not sure if it was shown in England) and the parents seem really normal and actually sort of bemused like everyone else. They're a force unto themselves.
I mean, they're either totally asexual, or they get all they need from each other. You see, this is why I can't work them out. On the one hand, they don't seem interested in anything sexual/romantic. Like the girlfriend thing - it's not like they act uncomfortable when people mention it, it's more like they're shocked anyone would even suggest it, like as if it's a ludicrous suggestion. And I think they'd be the same if anyone suggested boyfriends. So, that's why they seem possibly asexual. But then there's the cestiness, so that doesn't work. But THEN, there's the fact that they're kind of one person, so is that technically cesty? And if it is, is it even sexual at all? (In which case, it's not incest, really.) Because maybe they do get everything the need from each other and sex doesn't even come into it and they actually are asexual?
I want to study them for science or something. That's pretty much my entire interest in them - they're brains are definitely unique and I want to analyse them!
