you need to get them neutered now. in another few weeks they will start seriously fighting. two male rabbits housed together will start tearing at eachother's testicles and eyes. if you can't get them in to get them neutered, separate them. it has nothing to do with "being gay" it's about dominance.

They need to be separated immediately. Fights can be vicious and even deadly. They are both hormonal right now and it won't get better.
If you intend to bond them again once they are fixed, then, again, it is crucial that you separate them now. Fighting (the inevitable result with 2 intact males) could prevent them from future bonding.
They need to be housed separately at least until they are old enough to be neutered. After they are neutered, it can take 1-2 months for their hormones to fully dissipate. Once that time has passed, they can be re-introduced to each other on neutral territory and monitored.

This is normal behaviour, You need to sepearte then as it will quickly turn to fighs and rabbits can cause serious damage to each other fast. Male rabbits even when neutered will nearly always fight. I don't know who your bought them off but reputable breeders would never sell two males to live together. If you are going to have two together is is recommend to get a male and female that are neutered as same sex even when neutered will nearly always fight. It is very unlikely that these two will ever safety be able to live together,
