There were regular disputes over what to watch on Saturday morning, for instance.
“I’ll let you watch WWE if I can watch Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.”
You’re often the person sending “It’s Mam’s birthday on Sunday” reminders over text or coordinating Mother’s Day cards.
You’ve been known to send, “What did I do?” texts to her.
You do. You just have a funny way of showing it.
Although being nice to and considerate of each other usually doesn’t last very long.
Your Whatsapp group is just an endless stream of inside jokes/embarrassing baby photos. (You’ve both been known to share mortifying childhood photos on Facebook.)
Hey, it was all part of his training, okay?
Who else can you slag, offer life advice to and make fun of your parents with? Nobody.

I grew up in a family with two boys and two girls, and I can verify from personal experience that the relationship you have with your siblings affects the rest of your life, for better or for worse. Not that those relationships don’t evolve, and you along with them, but the roots run deep, and grip tightly.
But it’s the older sister-younger brother dynamic that seems to have a very specific effect. Studies done on college students in Japan indicated that men with older sisters were significantly less interested in competing for prizes or money than those without. The students were given the option of either solving mazes for points, or competing in a tournament where they had to solve more mazes than other people to get points. The ones with older sisters were much more likely to take the first option, preferring to challenge themselves rather than others.
In a second study, they offered up the same options with math problems, only the prize was more tangible: either straight cash or a tournament for it. Twenty-four percent of the men with older sisters chose the tournament, vs. 48 percent of the older-sisterless.
Studies also say that having an older sibling of the opposite gender decreases your tendency towards more stereotypical gender roles , but wouldn’t that just be about exposure? My siblings and I grew up in the ’70s, when traditional gender roles were already being challenged. My brothers are both excellent, focused fathers who didn’t shy away from birth experience details, diaper changing, or any of the other things my father was spared from having to deal with by being a young father in the 1960s.
As for competitiveness specifically, since it’s influenced by testosterone, it makes sense that having an older sister who doesn’t spur you on as much is likely to have some impact on a boy’s personality. But clearly it depends on that older sister’s personality, because I know plenty of competitive women.
Bottom line: Before you even get out into the world, the traits are stacking up. Birth order, gender order within that, age difference, it all plays a part. Long after you’ve moved out and you think you’ve grown up into your own independent person, your place in your own, original family has left its mark.

There must have been at least one moment in your life, when you wished you were an only child. But, siblings are siblings, and nobody can take their place in your life. Right from being enemies and fighting over the silliest of things to being best friends who are always there for each other, the relation between an older sister and a younger brother is a beautiful one.
Guys who have an elder sister can understand this beautiful relationship. Your older sister is like your mother and friend at the same time.
Even if your parents were busy, you always had someone to drop you or pick you when you were small. Afterwards, she was the one who taught you to drive. When you first drove your cycle, bike, or car, she was right beside you.
Whenever you are in doubt, you call her. Whether you want career or relationship advice she is your go-to person. You can trust her advice blindly.
With just one look she will figure out what’s wrong with you. You never have to explain your actions to her, because she will just know. Isn’t it amazing guys, to have someone who understands you well, probably more than yourself?
She notices all the good things you do, and appreciates you for them. Even your little achievements matter to her and they make her proud. Even if you have grown up, she calls you and encourages you all the time.
If you make mistakes, she scolds you heartily. Don’t expect any consideration from her, you will get only the truth, the harsh truth. She won’t mince words when it comes to you. It is only because she doesn’t want her little brother to stray.
Whether it’s a really nasty breakup or a promotion, she will be the person you can celebrate it with. She will help you get through difficult times, and party like crazy in good ones. She is your companion through thick and thin.
Remember those boring family functions that you had to attend. Your sister was the only person who made them a little bearable. Cracking stupid jokes and making silly comments ensured that time passed quickly, and you were free to run away!
Your elder sister is like your second mom. She takes care of you, looks out for you, is always there for you, and loves you a lot. It’s like having a mom with whom you can talk about anything and do all the crazy stuff as well. This makes the relationship between an elder sister and a younger brother all the more special.
A brother may purposely tell all your secrets to your parents, but a sister will cover up for you, always. You can tell her everything (OK, most of the things) and she will help you deal with them without ratting you out. She is basically your partner in crime, and you do all sorts of crazy activities together.
Having an elder sister is like a blessing in school and college. You don’t have to worry too much since she guides you and you get a basic idea of everything from her. She knows how it is and gives you all the necessary tips. If both of you are in the same school or college, then you literally don’t have to worry about anything. She tells you which teachers to stay away from, and helps you choose the right subjects.
Since she started working before you, you got all the necessary contacts and expert guidance from her. Things definitely got a wee bit easier for you on the professional front.
Having an elder sister meant someone’s always gonna be there to pick on you, fight with you, and tease you. Those horrible fights and mean pranks made you tough. It literally prepared you for worse things in the world.
The reason you are so smooth with girls, is probably your dear elder sister. She helped you understand women (OK, at least a little). She explained all those encrypted text messages from your female friends.
Although you are the younger brother, you are protective about your sister, isn’t it? You love and respect her. She is the reason you started respecting women. You must have seen your sis going through bad breakups, handle jerks or even perverts, and that has made you honor women even more.
She helped you realize that it is fine to make mistakes, follow your dreams, and go against the flow. Sometimes you rebelled against your parents, but she supported you, protected you. She taught you what determination means.
Remember when you sneaked in at night totally wasted? She was the one who covered it for you. When you got into trouble at school, she was the one who helped you. She always protected you, no matter what.
Your friends were totally impressed by you at the party because your sister got alcohol for you! Even at school, you were a star, thanks to your popular sister and her cool friends.
You never have to worry about food when you have an older sister. Of course, it was a little scary to try out her weird dishes sometimes. And her culinary experiments did turn out good eventually. Even after growing up and going separate ways, she can instantly whip up your favorite meal when you visit her.
Our parents may not be with us lifelong, and our friends won’t be there all the time, spouses might come later, but your elder sister is always gonna be with you. She is that buddy who’s never going to leave your side.
