The Boyfriend Twins meme encompasses a variety of photographs featuring male couples who look strikingly similar to each other, almost as if they were brothers. This template typically shows two men in each photo who share a strong physical resemblance.
The meme began with the launch of the Boyfriend Twins blog on April 6th, 2014, created by an anonymous Tumblr user. The idea stemmed from a discussion about 'doppelbangers,' aiming to spark dialogue regarding narcissism, exhibitionism, and sexuality, as mentioned in an interview with BuzzFeed.[1]
