“Zombies.” That’s the best descriptor medical experts who met identical siblings June and Jennifer Gibbons could come up with to describe the young women. They didn’t speak. They walked in a synchronized fashion. They were the Silent Twins. And they unsettled everyone who came into contact with them.
Born in 1963, June and Jennifer were moved by their Barbadian parents to a small town off the coast of Wales called Haverfordwest. Known for its tranquility, the town and the twins had but one thing in common: Quiet. Amazingly, the two had never spoken to anyone else their entire lives. Instead, they communicated with each other in a strange, birdlike language only they could understand.
At age 14, the twins were separated in an attempt to encourage socialization. They responded by slipping into catatonic states. Doctors and family members reunited the siblings thereafter, and they spent the next few years holed up their room, performing intricate plays for one another and writing extensively in their diaries.
It was on the blank page that June and Jennifer revealed the darkness of their bond, exploring the joint need and hatred they felt toward one another. June wrote, “Nobody suffers the way I do, not with a sister; with a husband, yes; with a wife, yes; with a child, yes, but this sister of mine, a dark shadow robbing me of sunlight, is my one and only torment.”
Born 10 minutes apart, Jennifer viewed her older sibling as mightier in every way—looks, brains, wits. For her part, June sensed the envy, writing, “She wants us to be equal. There is a murderous gleam in her eye. Dear lord, I am scared of her. She is not normal … someone is driving her insane. It is me.”

Some people ask "Why the word feminist? Why not just say you are a believer in human rights, or something like that?" Because that would be dishonest... to choose to use the vague expression human rights is to deny the specific and particular problem of gender.

It's time!
So it's time for action! The beginning of this year has been an uneventful one and I feel like I have blamed it mainly on school. Well, April is right around the corner and I hope to make April a month full of action!

Hey what’s up guys? So lame-opea and I have been getting requests to do more music videos together. It’s crazy because since our first video of us signing songs for the first time together, Ashley has gotten SO MUCH better at singing songs. She is profoundly deaf and it’s crazy because she sings this song better than people who can hear. This weeks video we did my current favorite song To Love - Talking Body (remix). Hope you guys enjoy this little clip.
PS - sorry for the camera shake, we were dancing so hard that the floor was shaking. Enjoy.

I had to watch this short video in my communications class and I found that for its briefness it is very informative and helpful. My yoga instructor had already suggested that I take deep breaths before facing a situation that might cause some sort of stress like giving speeches, so I found it reassuring to know there’s actual science to it.

I don’t necessarily work ‘better under pressure’, I just literally will not work until I am under the extreme pressure of time constraints created by my own unnecessary procrastination
