Since Ive have my 2 Males, Sweep is allways doing the mating dance to sutty... & When they walk by each other they try to stick there bums! in each others face haha, & then sutty will chase sweep trying to hold his bum Furr? what are they doing? can they be gayy? haha
 
This is just to show who is the dominant one. The swaying of hips is like a dance to show who is the leader. It is perfectly normal so no need to worry.

No they can't be gay. The walking is called rumble strutting & they usually make a low rumbling sound as they walk. It is a display of dominance as is the chasing & mounting. It's perfectly normal behaviour & not just for boars, sows do it too. :)
 
Can I ask where you got them from and how old they are? Have you had their sexes confirmed?
 
They are about 7-8month old, sweep is about a month older. but sutty seems to have had a growth spurt & is much bigger than sweep.. & from a rescue, & they where confirmed both males, Evan by the vet when i tuck them.
