I have a younger brother (he’s 9, I’m 15). We share a bedroom (which, from what I understand from both the old TeenHut and form some of my friends and cousins, is not an uncommon thing). But the thing is, my brother has unfortunately been through…a few bad things in his life so far. I don’t really want to get into them here (but I will say that among other things, he’s seeing a therapist for it). One thing is that he still gets nightmares, and one of the things that seems to help so that he doesn’t get them (at least not a lot) is that he sleeps with me. Our parents even got us a queen sized bed to help with that. He likes to cuddle with me as we sleep. One thins is, we both sleep in just our briefs. A few people that I’ve told this to think it’s pervy and weird. It might be a bit weird, but this is my brother and I want to help him. It isn’t like we’re doing anything….well, sexual (which is what I get the impression people think is happening whenever they call it pervy). I’m straight, and even if I weren’t I wouldn’t ever do anything like that with my own brother. So how do I address the topic of it not being pevy to those who think it is? (Or do I just not tell people about the sleeping arrangements of my brother and me?)
