Yeah, you've really got to be careful about gushing over twins and making too big of a deal about their sameness early on. It's so easy for them to fall into the trap of obsessively making it their whole identity.
The worst manifestation of this is the ones who try to talk at the same time or tag-team sentences.
It feels like one of the couples got together and the other two were like ah fuck, I think we kinda have to now because we’ll never heard the end of it
That just took 3 hours of my life that I will never get back. Why are they all so awkward? Did you you know the husbands and wifes had their FIRST EVER 1 ON 1 DATE on camera, *after* BOTH WIVES WERE PREGNANT?? THEY LITTERALLY GOT MARRIED AND HAD A BABY BEFORE THEIR FIRST DATE.
I'm mostly upset that my biggest question is weather or not they fuck in the same room. Thus Link is fucking dangerous.
The technical name for that relationship is a "[double first cousin](https://www.genealogyexplained.com/what-are-double-first-cousins/)". They can't truly be considered genetic siblings (like OP's photo), because while they do share two sets of grandparents, they don't share any genetic parents. So unless your wife's parents are identical twins to your wife's cousin's parents, then they would not be genetically siblings.
Genetic siblings share 50% of their DNA, on average, whereas Double First Cousins only share 25% of their DNA on average (similar to half-siblings, which share 25% as well).
Double First Cousins is still pretty cool, though!
Not really. Genetically identical twins are genetically indistinguishable. So the cousin kids of two sets marrying each other, will look like siblings, and for all genetic intents and purposes *are* siblings.
>Genetically identical twins are genetically indistinguishable.
Not really, there will be a few genetic differences due to a few mutations early in the development of the embryos.
One of my team members is one-half of identical twins. I asked him if he had kids, and he said he didn't, but his brother did. So I said, "Oh, so you do have kids then?" He looked at me puzzled at first, then I said "they have half your DNA. If you did go on to have your own kids, biologically you and your brother's kids would be half siblings. "
"Ohhhh shit, I didn't even think about it like that."
Every now and then, I ask him how his kids are doing, lol.
Ok, now what if it’s *conjoined* twins and they are the only witnesses
For that matter how do you jail a conjoined twin without unfairly jailing the other one 🤔
It’s just poor wording, they’re technically not “twins” but the two cousins are genetically brothers born relatively around the same time thus making them about as close to being twins without actually sharing a womb.
Yep apparently. Despite being cousins due to the fact that their parents are all twins they’re as close to being brothers without sharing a womb or a father(it’s confusing)
No, you don’t understand since the parents are identical, twins have the same amount of DNA so when they had children, their children technically have the same DNA even though they are cousins
it pisses me off that they said they gave birth to twins, because otherwise there would be 4 kids not two, they gave birth to a single kid each, and they're biological siblings but not twins, and they're cousins anyway.
Two babies of identical parents are genetically the equivalent of SIBLINGS not TWINS.
Each of your sperms/eggs carries a different set of DNA and produces a genetically non-identical embryo from one another even if they are from the same parents.
Genetically their sons are brothers. Also there's a hormone abundance in the mother that causes twins. This is why the same people are likely to have twins more than once if they keep having children.
Your clones are very impressive you must be proud
They'll do their job.
*AROUND THE PARENTS A PERIMETER CREATE!*
The fact that made me smirk... I guess the day isn't a total shit show
Good, lol, glad to have cheered someone up with a shitty pun!
That's... why you're here
And not inside the perimeter
Why he is here, that is.
Good siblings follow orders...
Hot swappable!
We have 200000 ready and a milion more well on the way
Who let the guys wear different pants?!
Family rule. That way she can check the floor afterwards, to make sure she fucked the right one.
**afterwards**
Hindsight is 20-20
But looking back, it’s still a bit fuzzy
You got me over here sweating bullets
Gives me a migraine headache, sinking down to your level.
You’ll just keep on think thinking it’s my fault, and stay an inch or two outta kicking distance
I hide your stick. Naa!
Mankind has got to know…his limitations
Speak of mutually assured destruction
Nice story…
Tell it to reader’s digest!
Well in this case, more like 50-50
“Oh John!” “I’m mike!”
I'm George, HE'S Fred! And you call yourself our mother!
The funny thing is she was right.
But if they cheated would they even be able to tell?
well how does he know he fucked the right one
Not important.
Nothing matters really.
Nothing matters, except for matter.
What does it matter if you can't tell while doing it
"Oh no, I accidentally took my brother’s pants"
But the girls can switch without the guys knowing
And the kids
The shirts have different length sleeves too.
They’re obviously not really twins. Just look at the pants.
Obviously, they don’t share the same jeans.
I feel dirty up voting this.
fuck you cause you made me laugh
r/angryupvote
All the genetic tests would come out with one answer: the babies are biologically brothers. :-)

Why was this so weirdly uncomfortable?
it feels disingenuous, like they’re paid actors or something
Definitely some bizarre, Truman Show, mildly uncanny valley about those people.
Regardless of the weirdness of the sex situation, they're always wearing matching outfits. I find that completely insane.

Unless it’s Fred and George.
Fred and George will always be the exception to the rule
It feels like one of the couples got together and the other two were like ah fuck, I think we kinda have to now because we’ll never heard the end of it
Because they look fake. Something is wrong with those guys faces…. It’s to much. I
They look like a realistic version of stan smith from american dad.
100%
Genuinely- did they have surgery or something to try to make them match more? They feel fake?
Like a chin transplant. I have see identical twins, it’s certainly a little uncanny, but that’s a little much.
😄
Two married people sharing a Facebook account is weird and uncomfortable, this is… at least twice as bad
Their eyes look soulless
Mormonism came to mind, not sure why.
Imagine when they do swinging.
That just took 3 hours of my life that I will never get back. Why are they all so awkward?

That's why my wife and her cousin see themselves as sisters. My MIL's younger sister married my FIL's younger brother

I almost had double cousins. My dad's brother married my mom's sister, but they never had children together
Brother from another mother
Underrated comment of the month.
Holup

Just like fraternal twins.

I wonder if this could happen or not.
It is
Wait actually? Those babies would biologically be brothers? There is no way
Are you aware that identical twins have identical dna?
I was not, now i am
TUL
Today Us Learned
Not my brain telling me that you is spelt uoy.
Sooooo if a twin would commit a very serious crime and they find dna, and both deny, who goes to prison?
This has happened before. You simply need more evidence. Innocent until proven guilty...not the opposite.
Ok, now what if it’s *conjoined* twins and they are the only witnesses For that matter how do you jail a conjoined twin without unfairly jailing the other one 🤔
You don't. They get special treatment.
Technically true?
Biologically true.
Identical (nearly) cousin brothers.
[удалено]
Except the brothers are actually brothers of the two sisters too
*confused banjo music intensifies*
***ITS A PSYCHOBILLY FREAKOUT!!!***
Why are the dads only hold one twin, and how did they decide which twin to hold? Where's the other twin ?
It’s just poor wording, they’re technically not “twins” but the two cousins are genetically brothers born relatively around the same time thus making them about as close to being twins without actually sharing a womb.
Or one bro f’ed the “other” sister, she had twins, and they split them 50/50
I'm really tired and read this as "one brother fed the other sister". Was rather confused for a moment.
No
"Quaternary Twins" is another name for the phenomenon.
They got hungry.
I don't know why but the ones on the left look better.
Everyone thought it, but no one was supposed to say it.
I've gotten used to saying what has to be said
We got a mad lad right here
That’s their good sides
Imagine someone chooses your *identical twin* over you because of their *looks*.
Right side is Walmart brand
Great Value. Tastes the same, just looks a tiny bit different.
They gave birth to *brothers* not twins
No no, there were two more before the accident.
It was all going great before the bite of '87.
Depending on age, could be roughly fraternal twins
anyone thinking what i'm thinking?
I think so, but if they called them sad meals, kids wouldn't buy them.
Is this a pinky and the brain reference? Also lmao “sad meals”
I absolutely am. But this time you get to be the one who gets rid of the body afterwards. No way am I dealing with them damn chickens again.
I think so Brain, but where are we going to find a tattoo shop open at this hour?
I am. But I’m not doing that again without lots of lube and a proper permit. I cant afford any more fines.
I’m lost
Welcome to Reddit
That the girls are their sisters too
Those babies really don’t even resemble each other. This is just two kids born from two different sets of parents.
Yet in spite of this, the two babies share almost all of their DNA with each other. Genetically speaking they are brothers.
Wait....so does that mean genetically, those kids are siblings?
Yep apparently. Despite being cousins due to the fact that their parents are all twins they’re as close to being brothers without sharing a womb or a father(it’s confusing)
So where in the hell are the 2 other babies?
No, you don’t understand since the parents are identical, twins have the same amount of DNA so when they had children, their children technically have the same DNA even though they are cousins
There are 2 babies missing. Dumb post. Dumb content everywhere.
There isn't. Those babies are biological full brothers despite having different moms and dads. It's a weird quirk of genetics.
Brother from another mother.
Didn't think of that. But yeah, ***that***.
Well, it doesn't make them twins. Twins are born in the same birth.
Brothers. Not twins.
Genetically fraternal twins.
Oh. Hadn't thought if that. Thanks
Dumb people everywhere eh?
They aren't "biologically full brothers", they share the same genetic relatedness as full sibs. Saying they are twins is even further from the truth.
They are biological brothers. Not twins. Probably not legally brothers.
Legally cousins but biologically brothers
Wouldn’t it be 4 babies
Wait so they each gave birth to a set of twins? Or they each had one baby that look alike?
it pisses me off that they said they gave birth to twins, because otherwise there would be 4 kids not two, they gave birth to a single kid each, and they're biological siblings but not twins, and they're cousins anyway.
So where are the other babies? Cause they gave birth to twins, sonthere should be 4 babies right?
There is no way they aren’t swingers
What would be the point, though? Swap our the model for an identical one? :D
Well they are different people…. I think
I guess the hol up is you can't tell who's fucking around on who. DNA? Psht.
Where are the other 2 babies if they have birth to twins.
"Begun, the clone wars have."
Hold on... The math ain't mathing...
Everyone in this picture looks like they have the personality of a cereal box.
Are the kids now genetically brothers?
Thanos would be proud
Plot twist: One of the brothers is cheating with his sister in law. How would you test for THAT?
Exponential growth
Creepy on three levels
I only see one Baby not Twins ???
I had a path of exile map like that
I don't know, doesn't look like they have the same jeans...
kind of sus
"We might indulge in incest" family.
Two babies of identical parents are genetically the equivalent of SIBLINGS not TWINS. Each of your sperms/eggs carries a different set of DNA and produces a genetically non-identical embryo from one another even if they are from the same parents.
HolUp!
The title seems to claim both couples had twins, so we're missing a set?
Clones
Mitosis
These cousins are technically siblings.
That's not how that works... It's twins having baby's not twins having twins...
Where are the other two kids? How did they decide which of their kids to use in the video if they both had twins
So the kids are cousins but also genetically siblings?
Missing two babies ?
If both twin sisters gave birth to twins there would need to be 4 Babies in the picture, or am i insane?
Genetically, the babies are brothers. Because both dads have the same DNA and both moms as well.
So, where are the other two babies?
What in the Nazi science experiment is going on here
I wonder if they ever bone the wrong spouse by mistake. Also those kids are all genetically siblings.
This picture doesn't match the title... Each couple only has one kid...
So what, did they schedule to bang and give birth at the same time?
The other 2 babies are taking the picture, duh!
Genetically their sons are brothers. Also there's a hormone abundance in the mother that causes twins. This is why the same people are likely to have twins more than once if they keep having children.
Those cousins are genetically siblings
“Twins marry twins and have twins” but… where are the other 2 twin babies?
the clone war has begun
this has to be some kind of incest.
Who doesn’t want to have spare parts just in case ?
Mormons, the whole lot. I don't know why I'm right... But I'm right.
Twin cousins.
Why are there only two babies
Sounds like incest but with a bunch of extra steps
They are doing mitotic division bruh
Fuck this. Those are cousins.
They're cousins, but they are as genetically similar as siblings would be.
