Second off there is an actual biological reason why incest is gross. Do you remember basic biology and Mendalian evolution? If couples are to have kids (so not this gay couple but hetero incest couples) while being too closely related the chance of recessive alleles coming out is far higher as they're more likely to be heterozygous for said alleles which are passed down through their family.
It isn't bigoted or close-minded or hate-filled when in the majority of cases incest is an actual biological issue. In this case not so much as they're not capable of having kids but you can easily see where someone would logically think that incest is "gross."

K thanks but I'm pretty sure none of us needed a lesson on heredity, Mendel.
Incest isn't really that big of a deal so long as the parties involved aren't planning on conceiving children together, gay or straight.
Fairly certain that's not the case here. It's especially less of an issue when they're hardly even true brothers in any meaningful sense. They're essentially from two completely separate families with completely separate upbringings. They just share genes. And only about half as many as true siblings would share.
I'm kind of sad if that's the sole reason they broke up. The OP doesn't say, beyond that they've since broken up.
