The term for 2 toes joined together is commonly known as syndactyly and it often runs in families. If your child inherits it, it must feel like a superpower. People can have a trait that makes them stand out from the rest and we believe that our differences are what make us special and that we should cheekily show them off.
Bright Side loves to see people, animals, and plants being proud of their unique traits and we prepared a collection that will surely sweep you off your feet!
