Would you rather have eldest brother or sister?

Well, that's hard to say since I only have an elder brother. My brother and I, actually all my siblings and I, are very close to each other. My big brother isn't one of those talkative types and he doesn't act like it but he's very protective of my younger sister and I. I really like the feeling of having a big brother looking out for me. I don't know if I'd feel the same way if I had an older sister instead. Having an older brother is easier to use to intimidate people than the other way around.

hi i really hope i could have a older brother, when i was little, i always asked my mom, why did you give me a young brother, not an older one?hahaha... i was so puzzled, and the movies affected me, i think it is good to have a older brother to take care of me, and always protect me. since i am not a little girl now, i think it is a good to have a young brother.:)

I would like to have an elder brother or sister, I don't care if if it was a brother or a sister I just wanted it will be old than me. Because I'm the eldest in our family that's why I want to have any eldest than me. Actually I don't really like being the eldest because you have all the responsibilities in you and all the blame are in you if the family doesn't do well.

I have an eldest sister just like you careguarden. I am the the second child of four. And i love it the way it is! Next to me is a younger sister followed by younger brother. I'm not that really close with my eldest sister because she is closer with the younger one and shared stories most of the time. She wouldn't really care if i smoke or if i go out with friends at night. We're close with my younger brother. I don't think there are much/big difference with having an eldest brother or sister except that i noticed that my younger brother once said "I wouldn't allow you to smoke if I were the eldest brother"
With that being said by him, I think eldest brother may tend to be authoritative, and most likely, they are the type that would say " Follow what i do, but don't follow what i say" attitude.

Well, I have both since I'm the youngest and we're only 3. The eldest is my sister and the middle child is my brother. I guess it's because we're both female that I can say I can relate to my sister more. Even now that she lives in the USA, I can still feel that bond between. This seems ironic considering the fact that I live with my brother so we basically have more time to bond. But there are some things we can never meet eye-to-eye on and that's annoying. Needless to say, I guess having a sister as the eldest in our brood works out well for me.

this topic or this thing i love the most because i am the eldest in my family among brother and sister so in my accordance i love to have the eldest brother and sister actually saying lot of tension is reduced if you have one because you get the things that you want from them and you can share your problems and be free so i think we should have one yaar

As a person with an older sister, I would definately rather have an older brother. I hear from other persons who have older brothers that they do beat them up and perhaps are a little bit meaner to them. Fact of the matter is that the older brothers tend to get into more trouble than older sisters. This means that the moment that you come into play, everything that your older brother has already done seems a lot less intensive when you do them. Also, an older sister can be more kind to you and sensitive to your needs because of their feel for being a mother in the future. An older brother though can definately protect you in all kinds of situations and is someone who you would be able to count on during difficult times (strictly trouble wise with other persons). So there are two sides to the coin, but as a man, I think that I would have prefered to have had an older brother than an older sister as I do now.

well, i have a eldest sister... she very caring towards me and she will always call me and asks about my studies... she takes more responsibility for my future.. i will share all my personal problems and personal matters that i have... she will be very helpful for me to take decisions....

Hi Guarden,

It depends upon the mentality of the peoples I would
always want to have the elder brother in order to have the good
advise as well as to have the better protection, because as you have
knew that all the sisters are not much dare to supports or to give the
advise to the younger, and also some times to give the moral supports
from the outside. So having the elder brother would always much helpful
for us in order to have the good life . As you have said that you like
to have the elder sister because of your younger brother is too active and
also opposite to your elder brother. So it is really depends upon the
peoples, and how they are dealing with each and every peoples in the
family.

Have a nice day.

I have no idea. I think it depends on the person, more than the gender.
