They don't. There are two types of twins, fraternal and identical. Current research shows no genetic connection to having Identical twins, anyone can have them.
Fraternal twins are caused by a female trait, dropping more than one egg at a time. There appears to be evidence that the trait can be inherited. While it appears to be on the mother's side of the family, it is certainly possible that this could be transmitted on the male side as well. This double dropping also occurs with older women as well.
