What do you call that act of having sex with two or more people at the same time? Oh yeah! You get what am talking about! Having different eggs fertilize within a short space is rear but it can happen. Several studies have established this fact for as far back as 1978 as revealed by PubMed . According to a study by Dr. Lu Hi of department of Forensic Medicine, Sun Yat-sen University of Medical Sciences, Guangzhou, China; ‘If a female has sexual intercourse with two males at short intervals within the same ovulatory period, superfecundation may occur”. Her studies reported reports two cases of paternity identification in twins.
Superfecundation is the fertilisation of two or more ova from the same cycle by sperm from separate acts of sexual intercourse, according to a Polish study by Dr.Zakład Profilaktyki . He further describes the term as ”instances of two different males fathering fraternal twins, though this is more accurately known as heteropaternal superfecundation,” he said. Heteropaternal superfecundation is common in animals such as cats and dogs. Stray dogs can produce many puppies in which every puppy has a different sire. This is said to be the situation among dizygotic twins as found in 2.4% of every paternity court case. The possibility of twins being half-siblings recently happened in Vietnam. According to Washington Post, DNA revealed this when the family members saw a visible difference between the twins . One was said to have a straight hair and the other a thick hair. It also happened in Texas after a lady reportedly cheated on her partner and gave birth to twins. Mia narrated her story and wondered why she would be among few people with such occurence .
Similar case also happened in 2015 in New Jersey where the judge ruled that it was not compulsory that one of the father be made responsible for the two children. I would say is a case of ”you take your child while I take mine” Dr. Lu Hi study also added to this subject matter that twins can come from different fathers, in her words ”each twin had come from a different father. Thus, great attention should be paid to such a situation when the twin paternity identification is asked for,” she said.
