A couple who recently tied the knot look so much alike that people mistake them for identical twins.
Don’t get it twisted, the duo aren’t lesbians as they live in Russia
one of the countries where same-se x relationships is a illegal and
considered a social taboo.
Their story seems to be quite intricate because they are both
heterose xuals.At the left (above) is Alison Brooks 19, married to
‘Androgyne’ Dmitry Kozhukhov,
who prefers to be known as Alina Davis.
Alison was born male in 1991 and her preferred name “androgyne”
refers to her not being fitted perfectly as either male or female and
she is more comfortable being a woman than male. This makes her feel
strongly for the female folks.
However, they experienced some hitches in Moscow about both wearing
wedding gowns as Russian Registry officials were not comfortable with
their decision but they finally succeeded.
She has tied the knot with Alison Brooks, 19 – and one of the main
challenges they faced was being accepted into a registry office in
Moscow if they both wore bridal dresses. Despite outrage from staff, the
ceremony went ahead, because there are no rules on a couple wearing the
same outfit.
According a report in the Metro, Alina feels that the ceremony would
enlighten other couples in Russia who are in unconventional
relationships.
In her words, ‘We are not alone in having such problems. I have
written to couples who are planning similar marriages and are afraid of
failures with registration. Be aware – you cannot be refused.’
‘After all, girls are the fairer se x. They are beautiful. So if a guy looks like a girl – it’s wonderful.
