two male twins and two female twins.
I think i'm right in saying that it would be perfectly legal for two male twins to get married to one of a pair of female twins.
Now if they are both identical piars, would it be possible for there children to look very very similar? I'm doing about genes in biology (gcse but we're doing quite a bit of a level stuff) and i know that basically parent genes get split up so there is one chromosome from each parent then the genes go to the embryo and get jumbled around and that why some aspects of people look like there mum / dad more than the other. So is it possible that the genes get jumbled around in almost the same way, creating two cousins which look almost identical?

My 3 children all look entirely different, we've got straight blonde hair, dark curly hair and straight darkish hair. Also brown eyes, blue eyes and grey eyes - with all this variation going on between 2 gene donors (if you like) there seems to me to be a large amount of variation in the possible appearance of twin cousins.
I hasten to say that my children all have the same father! lol!
