Don’t identical separated twins disprove environments impact on growth?

[Deleted member 12119]

There are numerous cases of twins separated at birth who meet years later and despite having entirely different upbringings end up looking virtually the same. Height and everything. If environment had a big impact surely it would show here?

no

there isnt massive variation in lifestyle between western nations

2 twins, 1 raised in a hunter gatherer village, the other raised on soft north american food/lifestyle would be interesting, not comparing 2 people that both grew up in a developed society

height is mainly genetic anyway but not 100%

because they live in Western countries so they will develop the same 99% of the time

All lot of these people on here try to hope and cope that something went wrong in their development when a lot of the time there isn't anything

although there is definitive proof that there is a difference of proper verses improper development in twins as shown in these photos

I know identical twins, one 5'7 " and the other one 5'9" (very rare but happens). I know aswell dizygotic twins, one 6' the other one 5'8". But in terms of their faces, they are all at one looks level.

If you take one twin and send him to a north korean concentration camp while another is sent to some obese household in the US, it is extremely unlikely they will develop the same way and look the same way. However if you send them to somewhat comparable circumstances then the genetic similarities will make sure they do similar things.

I.e, lets say a person is genetically leaning towards eating 3000kcal per day and using 2500kcal per day during teenage growth - they both lift weights and develop normally, getting a great chad-like physique.

Now take one of the twins and put them in an environment where they only get access to 1200kcal per day and zero weights. Even if their genetics would force them to seek exercise and higher food consumption, it is impossible - thus there will be differences.

Damn. Do you think LDAR is comparable to North Korea then?

Yeah, it’s so annoying we can’t disregard human morals and just experiment on humans ffs
