This is a serious question it really is lol Two of my male guinea pigs appear to love eachother more than they should in terms of a bond. They do the 'mating dance' to eachother constantly, they do that to eachother all day too many times to count, rumbling and strutting to eachother. I know that guineas do this to eachother but these to are very extreme with it and I do believe they are gay and quite madly in love x)
 
Lol, that doesnt really sound like "love" to me. When male gp sway their body left to right, it means that one of them wants to be the dominant male of the cage. If they mount eachother as well, this could be them saying "Hey, I'm the oldest I'm the man".
I know someone else can give you a better and more clear view of what I'm talking about. I just wanted to help put you at rest and not make you worry that they maybe "gay". I'm kind of in a hurry, sorry, but good luck with your male piggies! :)
 
sorry but i have to laugh my boys Smokey and Bandit are the same i checked there sexes 5 or 6 times because i didnt think two males should behave that way but i think its plain dominance;)
 
Twinkle is the Graham Norton of the barn! Very camp! But gay not sure he mounts Milo but its dominance, they have tiffs over the water bottle of all things!

I am more inclined to think Pudsey and Eccles are gay as they have never had a barny, minor little things of course like all couples but Pudsey goes to Eccles for comfort and they are the same age give or take a couple of months. :)
 
My two Champagne and Truffle get right up on their toes and sway their bums at each other haha they rumble in unison its quite funny to watch, all my other boys do this to their chosen buddy but not to the extent these two do lol They have never mounted each other, I think because of the lack of females and the hormones that Champagne and Truffles have chosen eachother to express themselves lmao ahh young love lol
 
strange behaviour

My guinee pigs were always fighting, one bossing the other around all the time. Now the one that was being bossed about sways his hips and when he stops they touch noses, what does this mean.

LOL mine have had a tiff over the water bottle before, Gerty would only let Morgan drink for a certain length of time then he would move in the way, not to drink just to be annoying haha
