Pre-Tongue Bifurcation Information Search & Scientific Planning Thread
Hello everyone, it has been quite some time since I have found myself returning to this grand place. I hope this finds you all well.
I have become increasingly fascinated with the process of tongue bifurcation over the past year and have decided that this modification is something I would like to have. I am particularly interested in changes in dexterity possible with two independently controllable tines of the tongue.
There are questions I have, and I will be researching and getting to the root of these mysteries to the best of my ability.
The questions I have floating around my mind currently are as listed here.

Question 1: "How do the differing tongue bifurcation methods affect the healing process, and are there significant differences in the dexterity of the post-modification tongue as well?"
- Answer(s) 1: TBD
Question 2: "What would be an efficient set of tongue motility assessment techniques and protocols for both before and after modfication?"
Question 2: "What would be an efficient set of tongue motility assessment techniques and protocols for both before and after modfication?"
-Answer(s) 2: A start even if it is older research at this point I feel this provides a good look into pre modification data collection methods.
-Answer 2 ... continued this video has information on procedures to assess tactile sensory skills related to speaking, chewing, and swallowing. Tests include tactile sensitivity, tactile acuity, two-point discrimination, tactile localization, and tactile extinction.
This is a work in progress and I am absolutely looking for feedback, information, advice, suggestions, references, and any other productive contribution to this doscussion.
P.S. Look out I intend to regularly update this thread with new information/developments/data gathered.
-Sincerely, Hyrulean

My first thought was that cutting back the frenulum to let the tongue stick out farther would be a greater benefit and less noticeable. Plus, who doesn’t like ice cream cones?
Can you expand on what you want to do with a bifurcated tongue? I appreciate the methodical approach to this mod so much.
I have a Firefly myself and I have said it's just cosmetic. I once tried to find a keyhole in the dark and I had better luck with my bare hands. Still, I love it.
I imagine that fidgeting with a split tongue would be entertaining. All day I play with pens and it's pretty obvious when I'm stressed so maybe nervous people could entertain themselves more covertly.
