Deformity is when a brother and sister have hot, forbidden sex. This leads to a baby that looks like sloth from the goonies. Usually, these incestral babies are as retarded as they look. They could have extra finger and stuff which is really dugusting. Sometimes they have big heads and shit. So don't have sex with siblings or your baby will look like sloth from the Goonies. |

A '''deformity''', '''dysmorphism''', or '''dysmorphic feature''' is a major difference in the shape of body part or organ compared to the average shape of that part. |
|||
Deformity may arise from numerous causes: |
|||
*A genetic mutation |
|||
*Damage to the [[fetus]] or [[uterus]] |
|||
*Complications at [[childbirth|birth]] |
|||
*A growth or hormone disorder |
|||
*Reconstructive surgery following a severe injury e.g. [[Third degree burn|burn injury]]. |
|||
*[[Arthritis]] and other [[Rheumatoid disorders]] |
|||
[[Irish Mythology]] includes the [[Fomorians]], who are almost without exception described as being deformed, possessing only one of what most have two of ([[eye]]s, [[arm]]s, [[Human leg|leg]]s, etc.) or having larger than normal limbs. Other mythological creatures may have been created due to a deformative syndrome also, for instance, descriptions of [[mermaid]]s may be related to the symptoms of [[sirenomelia]]. |
|||
Deformity can occur in non-humans, as well. [[Frogs]] can be mutated due to [[Ribeiroia]] ([[Trematoda]]) infection. |

In many cases in which a major deformity is present at birth, it is the result of an underlying condition severe enough that the baby does not survive very long. In some societies, defective babies are abandoned at birth: some are saved by the "kindness of strangers."(See [[John Boswell (historian)|John Boswell]].) |

Deformity is when a brother and sister have hot, forbidden sex. This leads to a baby that looks like sloth from the goonies. Usually, these incestral babies are as retarded as they look. They could have extra finger and stuff which is really dugusting. Sometimes they have big heads and shit. So don't have sex with siblings or your baby will look like sloth from the Goonies.
