A staple of many sideshows was the half man or woman. They were born with sacral agenesis, where only the upper body developed in utero. The most famous, Johnny Eck, had a storied career in movies, vaudeville and the sideshow. His twin brother had a perfectly normal body.
Jeanie Tomaini, a half-woman, spent a lifetime in the circus and was married happily to 7 foot tall Al Tomaini. They raised children and help found Gibsontown, Florida as a retirement venue for circus people.
Prince Randian was a halfman who also lacked arms. Billed as the Living Torso he could roll a cigarette and light it using only his lips! He also married and had 5 children.

Thanks for observing and considering my world view through the art I've created.
