That's a myth. When i kept and bred chins, i used to keep unrelated same sex pairs together all the time. They can be a bit more complicated to introduce than other rodents but it is very possible.
The males get very territorial if there are females present in the same room, that's why it is advised to keep males and females in seperate rooms
