I think, for a girl, the worst type of siblings is to have younger brothers. Added disadvantages: having TWO of them, and them being in the same age group.

I'm usually jealous of my friends, who has sisters or older brothers instead. It's so much better than hearing "You're the older sister. You must give way to your younger brothers," or when I stay out beyond my curfew, "They're boys. You're a girl. Different."

Maybe that's why I can get a little feminist. There's inequality in this house.

If only I'm not the oldest. But then, being the oldest is like second nature... oldest sibling, (2nd) oldest (paternal) and way oldest (maternal) among cousins, oldest among my group of friends, and older than more than half the kids born in 1991. There's a resentment present in being born so early in the year.

Whatever. There's that saying, "God gave us our relatives. Thank God we can choose our friends."
