COMMON KNOWLEDGE

the weight of evidence
no sources on either side

Identical twins share the same genetic makeup from a single fertilized egg and are always of the same gender, making this claim common knowledge that requires no citation.

The analysis

The claim that identical twins are always the same gender is a definitional biological fact arising from monozygotic twinning (derived from a single zygote). Because no citation is needed for common knowledge, the paper indices are left empty.
