If a set of identical twin sisters and a set of identical twin brothers would get married to the other, you would wonder if they're going to have identical looking children, amirite?
I don't think it's gross at all - it's not like they are blood related.
The interesting thing is if each couple had a child, those two children would be considered cousins, but genetically they would be siblings (since their parents are identical). Think about it.
If you think about it, you and your brothers or sisters aren't identical (unless you're twins) and you have the same parents. I think the children would look a lot alike (as if they were brothers and sisters), but not identical.
YAY! I actually know this!
If the brothers have kids with the sisters, genetically speaking, their children will have DNA as similair as ordinary siblings, rather than first cousins.
The kids would look very alike but not completly. I asked my teacher this in the beginning of the year last year and it took up almost the entire class time.
It's happened before, I saw a story on the news about it sometime back. The kids wouldn't be identical but they'd genetically be siblings because their parents are basically the same people.
btw my mom's sister and my dad's brother got married to eachother, and i don't think it's really that weird... They all met around the same time, one couple just got married first.
Okay, this post is wrong on so many levels. Assuming each set of twins is from a different family, let's say the girls are Susie and Sally Johnson and the boys are Billy and Bobby Jones. Susie marries Billy, making Bobby her brother-in-law. If Sally were to marry Bobby, she would be marrying her brother-in-law. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe that that would be called incest.
My mom and dad married and then my moms sister married my dads brother. I think it's incredibly weird and this is the rare occasion that I actually think about it.

Yep, the kids all come from the same selection of genes and would be as genetically related as siblings, but technically cousins.

This post is rather interesting! =D

That's kind of gross.. no offese, it's a good thought, but it'd just be somewhat weird if your sister married your brother-in-law..
Didn't something like that happen in an Arnold Schwarzenegger film? ...Twins, or something like that, I think.
Even if it's not legally incest, it's just gross. Why would you marry someone from the family your sibling married?
maybe because you love them

pretty sure its not incest unless you're blood relatives....

But what if they get married at the exact same time?
Then that's just weird, and it could still be considered incest (I think).
No marrying your brother is incest.... not brother in law
