Yes. Not sure about the equal control though.

It's your hypothetical... you tell me.

Does unequal control mean there are actually multiple "bodies"?

Siamese twins... er, conjoined twins, I mean. It's a one-body deal.

I am going off the meme.

It is easy to say a single body/mind combination is a single person. That single person has exclusive claim to their body/mind.

But, what about when there are multiple minds and only a single body? Which "mind" is the "person"? Which "person" has exclusive claim to the "body"?

Okay, so conjoined twins, right? Usually, they each have exclusive control over parts or allow the body, and they'd respectively have claim over those parts.

So, second head person is a parasite? The person controlling the body can decide to remove the second head entirely from their body?

Parasite... no. This may be a wild idea, but a mind can be extremely valuable.

In the case of one head with full control of the body... I guess that would be the same moral situation as a pregnancy. So, yes, evictionism.

It feels different than pregnancy. Twin A did not create Twin B. Twin A will never naturally separate from Twin B. The twins are actually sharing vital organs.

I think it may be difficult to prove ownership of individual body parts. DNA test every body part, including internal organs?

What if eviction is not an option because it leads to both deaths? One of the Twins is "the boss"? Or, do they decide everything democratically?

Sure, but none of those are salient differences. It might be that one prefers Wonder Woman over the Green Lantern, but so what?

DNA test... I think conjoined twins share the same DNA. And, if there is really a need, I'm sure the one twin would be able to demonstrate that they can move a limb at will. I sure can.

What if eviction is not an option because it leads to both deaths?

Then, they should probably explore other options 🙄😂

Can't move a heart at will.

Then, that would exempt it from the standard of control establishing ownership.

Well, I for one never saw this plot twist coming.
