The bond of brotherhood is strong.
Twitter user heycnyn recently shared a picture of himself and his boyfriend snuggled up in bed together, writing: “hi lemme introduce you to my adventure buddy, best friend, lover, and everything else.”

He followed that up with a second tweet, letting his nearly 20K followers know they had merged their Instagram accounts together and that he was “so excited to see where things go.”
But many people on Twitter couldn’t seem to get past the boys’ uncanny resemblances to one another.
How about we take this to the next level?

But apparently heycnyn didn’t see the humor in any of it, because he later tweeted: “I’m honestly tired of being dragged for being in love. We’ve been through hell for being gay and now this FROM gays”.
well wait maybe add a few years to that, i’m honestly tired of being dragged for being in love. we’ve been through hell for being gay and now this FROM gays. pic.twitter.com/pnvu6wfUuK

What are your thoughts on boyfriend twins? Share your opinions in the comments section below…
Wicked Dickie
First of all, you both definitely could be brothers, if not twins. I can’t tell where one ends and the other begins. Second, people in relationships who have joint accounts are ugh (eye roll).
RoughRugger
Seriously. They cannot be surprised that people take note of the fact that they’re clones.
…and Hear, Hear on the joint accounts.
OrchidIslander
@RoughRugger, taking “note” is one thing, flat out attacks are another.
Aires the Ram
If they’re brothers and love each other and have sex with, sleep with, one another, that is hurting who?
I know those clutching their purses will scream about this article.
@HarryB
As for me it is strange and not normal. Brother should love his brother as a brother, not as a man
Crystix
Does not Jesus instruct us to love thy neighbor as our brother? Just seems like they’ve taken this love to the next level. TRANSCENDENT.
Now its time to listen to Le Sexoflex’s song “Twincest”. MmmmHmmm
thisismylife247
@HarryB – That’s the same excuse homophobes give: “As for me it is strange and not normal. A man should love a woman, not a man”
Who are we to judge?
Brian
I have a feeling that a lot of men use that logic as a justification for molesting their children
I don’t really care what other people do if it doesn’t affect me, but that doesn’t mean i won’t think you’re a sick fu*k if you’re in an incestual relationship.
Anyway, i think these two are just narcissists, not brothers.
Crystix
Two consenting adults with no chance of three armed anemic babies? I believe that’s the logic states give in letting cousins marry after the woman has gone through menopause.
But yes, lets fall back on equating adults consenting to sex to that of a sexual predator. Why not throw in some beastiality too for good measure
VESSAGO
Yum ?? Eat my bro all the time.
Tombear
This is gross!
Greg
Jesus said love your neighbor as yourself. I see no problem with brotherly love. The reason incest is a “crime” is because girls can get pregnant. Two boys can’t get pregnant.
sputnik53
Exactly.
Personally, they’re very young and will probably out grow it. No biggie to me.
Just sayin.
DStanley
They are not actually related. A bunch of Twitter trolls started this “joke” a few months back. The fact that Queerty jumped on this bandwagon, and is helping to bully these two young people is DISGUSTING.
QueerTruth
That’s called incest. What’s wrong with you?
DCguy
Just for clarity, the article seemed to indicate they just happened to look like each other, but some of the responses are saying they’re brothers. Can I get a judges ruling on that?
PoetDaddy
That’s how I read it. And while I don’t happen to have any interest in falling in love with someone who looks just like me, I can see that two lonely people who have felt alienated for being gay might well wish to be close enough to be brothers, or twins.
jjose712
The responses are joking about the fact they look like brothers, but they are not.
And frankly this is the kind of joke that you find funny when its about others and not about yourself, so i understand they are a little tired of such stupidity
DStanley
They are not related whatsoever. They are being bullied because of how similar they look. The fact that Queerty is helping to perpetuate this, is super unethical.
iamru2
I give them credit for trying really hard to come off as cutesy and unaffected. Unfortunately it’s not working they seem desperate and creepy instead!
Crystix
Awww! Just like this post!
pvkalso
I don’t know if I could stand another version of myself, even if he was a truly unique individual who looked exactly like me, as I know what a butt hole I can be. However, I wish these two brothers, who not only share identical looks, but a seemingly genuine romantic love for each other, nothing but the best that life has to offer. As an only son, I can only imagine what these two men feel. I hope it’s as glorious as I imagine it to be. 🙂
Crystix
Nowhere does this article state that they are brothers. They use the term “boyfriend twins,” which references two men dating, who look eerily similar.
devg50
Ok, the author of this article definitely went a bit too far with the exaggerated claim that the couple are in an incestuous relationship, and that, in itself, is not even true. They’re not even related by any means. Queerty should definitely be more careful next time with how they word things. This is quite a damaging thing to do.
Robert-in-Seattle
I actually don’t have a problem with it at all. They cannot reproduce. They are hurting no one. They love each other. Who am I to judge another’s love? I’ve dated (briefly, in college) two sets of twins. It was very surreal and wonderful. If you cannot see past you own prejudices, then maybe you should not respond to this article and just move on. Religio-speech and hate-speech have no place here.
Go troll EHarmony…
okzain
I really don’t understand why people can’t leave these two guys alone. They’ve done absolutely nothing wrong yet people are treating their relationship as if it’s a joke, all because they look like brothers even though they ain’t related at all. They let the “twin jokes” slide and act like it doesn’t affect them but it gets to the point where it’s taken too far and this article is a prime example of shit being taken too serious. Just leave them alone. They ain’t hurting anybody. There’s actual siblings dating each other, write an article on them and leave these two alone.
VESSAGO
Well stated.
DCguy
While I like the sentiment in your comment, when people make a big deal on social media, merge their accounts, and basically go on a P.R. tour, it gets silly for them to then complain that some people actually paid attention.
I’m guessing people “Leaving them alone” is the absolute LAST thing these guys want.
Insipid
Yes, they want to be recognized. They don’t want to be lied about. Accusing them of incest is a lie. Just because they seek to be social media stars (or movie, tv or music stars for that matter) doesn’t mean all abuse heaped on them is justified. These two are as entitled to as much dignity and respect as any other couple.
frankie042172
1. It doesn’t specifically say they are brothers.
2. Even if they are who cares. For the religious right. Moses children repopulated the planet which means incest was involved. Go back even farther one man and one woman populated the planet which means Adam and eves children had to be incestual.
3. Incest is banned in straight community’s where children are involved. In the situation of 2 gay guys there is no procreation so no birth defects. If they love each other leave it alone. There relationship doesn’t effect anyone but then. MYOB.
VESSAGO
Exactly. People seem to forget that, as they “preach” from on high.
Chipper
Frankie, get your biblical stories straight. Was NOT Moses.
And Adam and Eve may have been the first, but probably they were not the only ones God created.
jayceecook
Yeah! Like Chipper said it wasn’t Moses’ family. It was more like Lot and his daughters, Abraham and Sarah, Nahor and Milcah, Isaac, Cain, Reuben and Bilhah, Judah and Tamar, Amram and Jochebed, Amnon and Tamar, Absalom and David’s wives, Herod… Wait, Moses’ father did marry his aunt. Oh I give up.
andchamir
So they are of similar age, build and coloring. Remind me why this is interesting enough to people that they need to comment?
VESSAGO
Because it’s uber-hot…. ???
jayceecook
I wonder if Queerty will do an update article on how THEY are being (rightfully) dragged on Twitter for this article. Graham has already made his account private.
Brian
I wish that would happen more.
ryanvomusic
This article is incredibly irresponsible it makes them out to be actual brothers when they are NOT. The jokes are one thing and harm no one but to actually harass and accuse them of incest is a whole new level of wrong
sfhairy
After seeing their photos, I just went and vomited.
arie570
I concur
They are not related so what’s creepy about it?
BrokebackBob
Why don’t y’all mind your own god damn business!
DCguy
Weird, so they can put everything out there publicly but then it’s the audiences fault if what they’re selling isn’t liked?
Insipid
So because you posted a comment on a public board I can just make stuff up about you?
Ok… Mmmm DCGuy is obviously consumed with jealousy because he can’t get laid or find a boyfriend and has to pay for it. For all I know, everything I wrote is a lie, but it doesn’t matter because you put yourself out there.
Their choosing to be on social media does no absolve us from civility.
tjack47
They aren’t brothers. They aren’t related. I wish them all the best. Someone always seems to thrive on being offended or outraged. It’s getting more than old.
Notyourdaddy
Brothers or not, big deal. It’s not uncommon at all for brothers to experiment with one another when they’re young, and sometimes it goes on longer. I’ve known many brothers who enjoy sex with each other, even some identical twins. My brother and I used to suck each others dicks, but that stopped when I was about 15 and he got a boyfriend of his own. To this day I wonder what it would have been like had we taken it to another level, but then, he ended up being a Dom, and I’m by no means into that sort of thing.
batesmotel
That’s creepy sucking your own brothers dick. Then you can’t say anything for red neck cousins marrying each other.
JPGUY
Why is this a story? Queerty is just as bad of a Troll for publishing this. Blah!
BazT
So disappointed in Queerty! Writing a story and becoming a hater yourself is sickening. I thought you built your platform on support and positive messages but to see that you are fueling this story and making it bigger is low. These two boys I follow on social media are boyfriends and that’s all people should see. And also, let’s not forget we are talking about pretty young members of our community. Have you thought about the damage you are doing by writing this story?
Maybe you should have used an angle about discrimination between members of our own community, the one you are using right now? If Queerty is becoming the cyber-bully where are we going??!
This story didn’t even have to exist. We fought to be able to love each other publicly and now that two young men have the opportunity to do it, you want to make us go backward?? That is a real shame for a platform like Queerty.
iamru2
Sorry but you sound like a hater to me!
Brian
You follow them? Why?
sfmike64
What do I think? I think it’s none of my business. Instagram is about showing off and people will be bitches. And who cares? It’s none of their business either.
surfpenis
This story is hot -and nobody’s business other than the two boys involved. Even if they are twin blood brothers, what difference does it make? My brother and I sucked each other’s dicks from when we were about 12 until college time. Again, who cares!!
VESSAGO
That’s hot. My bro and I still suck and fuq each other when we’re hanging out & horny. Even if we’re in relationships, it’s just a thing. Men like to fuq. And I like fuqing with my bro. He knows how I like it, and I know how he likes it……
johnnymcmxxx
No “hot” at all. Sick is a more appropriate description.
mcmahonlier
They aren’t related. It’s not that uncommon for same sex couples to look somewhat alike. If they’re of similar nationality and share the same interests in style of course they are going to look similar. Don’t have a Twitter but the comments I’ve seen come off to me as hidden homophobia and show immaturity.
Hillers
They’re adorable. And plenty of straight couples look alike anyways. Also, I give it six months. ?
SportGuy
Super creepy when guys date other guys that look like they could be brother or twin.
Stenar
About 50% of the gay guys I know are dating guys who look remarkably like themselves. It’s pretty common.
nm4047
can queerty follow up this story in 6mths, if they’re still together then, I will pay some attention, otherwise young guys like this fall out as quickly as they fall in love with the next clone.
Stenar
Even if they were related, which they apparently are not, I don’t see the big deal. The main reason incest is taboo is because with heterosexuals you’ll have deformed children, but since they can’t procreate, there’s no real reason to be against it.
johnnymcmxxx
Your defense of incest is beyond ignorant.
Geeker
They both look like they’d be exhausting to be around.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Why is this even a thing???
Two hot twinks found each other and clearly are infatuated with each other. What gives anyone the right to spew hatred upon them?? The Gay community is tearing itself apart from the inside out…..
And if you really need a twincest fix use the Googles for “Milo and Elijah Peters”
startenout
My opinion is that I don’t have a judgment on them. Date who you want whether they look like you or not as long as you’re not ACTUALLY related. There was an article in NJ recently about two “boyfriend twins” who found out they actually WERE separated twins.
kernowcraig
Don’t give a crap. They are in no way affecting my life. If they’re happy good for them. Got my own life to deal with thank you very much.
batesmotel
Well it is their life and they can be together if they choose to. Regardless they do look alike which is kind of creepy. It’s like dating yourself. I’ve noticed quite a number of gay guys seem to do that. Two identical hard bodied pretty boys in a relationship with each other. Um yeah we know why you’re together. Still it is their life and if they want to date a clone of themselves go right ahead.
MountainCowboyMan
For Years Study After Study Has Documented That 50% of All Twins Bond Into A Full Life Long 100% Relationship. So There Is Nothing Odd or Off The Wall What These Two Men Have In Life. When Going To University There Were Male Twins From Sweden That Came & Were Lovers 24/7. Interesting To Also Realize In The Animal Kingdom The Stats Are The Same 50% of Males & Females Twins & Siblings Are Lovers For Life. Love Trumps Hatred Around The Globe.
Esscourt
I used to date a guy whose mother was a psychiatrist. She told him that gay men usually fall in love with mirror images of themselves. Just sayin’.
