"Growing up with brothers isn't for the weak," according to a BuzzFeed article asking women to share their "that's so unfair" moments if they grew up with brothers.


Title: The Perils of Growing Up with Brothers: A Sarcastic Rant Ah, growing up with brothers. What a character-building experience. The constant competition, the endless teasing, the fights over who got the biggest slice of cake. Good times. But let's talk about the real issue here. The "that's so unfair" moment. You know what I'm talking about, ladies. That moment when your brothers got away with murder while you were grounded for breathing too loudly. For me, it was when I was 16 and my brothers were 14 and 12. My parents decided that they were old enough to stay home alone for an entire weekend while they were out of town. The only rule? Don't have any parties. Guess what happened? Of course, they had a party. And guess who got blamed for it? Me. Because apparently, it was my responsibility to make sure that my brothers didn't have any fun while my parents were away. Makes perfect sense, right? But hey, it's not like I'm bitter or anything. I'm sure that my brothers learned a valuable lesson about responsibility and consequences. Or not. And let's not forget all of the other "unfair" moments. Like when they got to drive the car before you did. Or when they got to stay out later than you. Or when they got to eat the last cookie even though you clearly saw it first. But hey, at least we can take comfort in knowing that our brothers will always be there to protect us, right? Except for when they're the ones putting us in danger. Like when they convinced us to jump off the roof into the pool because "it'll be fun". Spoiler alert: it wasn't. So to all of the women out there who grew up with brothers, I salute you. You are warriors who have survived the perils of siblinghood. And to all of the brothers out there, I have three words for you: karma is real.
