The situation that I had in mind was that of conjoined twins, and whether its fetus should be aborted.
There is a less malevolent depiction of conjoined twins on display at the Ripley's Believe It of Not Museum in Baltimore.


Even if the child does survive to adulthood, should its future be that of an attraction in a Freak Show?

The Freak Shows offered a wage and a family of like disabled, who often supported each other, fell in love, married.

But you're overarching point is granted.

Next trip to Baltimore, for sure. Estes Park used to have one of these places, but it's sadly nonexistent now.

I mean, what could be more exciting than looking at replicas and reconstructions of interesting things?
