El bent Zai El walad :p (Girls = Boys)

Today, my brother brought his girlfriend home to meet my mum!?!?!?!?! @#$%^&*!#@$ (not for anything, just because my mum is sick and the girl came and brought flowers..)

OK... I know that most people would be like "whats the problem with that?"... But the thing is, THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM...

I am the eldest daughter of 2 Muslim and really religious parents... They have been prohibiting me from talking to guys or going out with them till I went to college... And still then I had some restrictions... I had to call them only if I wanted to talk about stuff concerning college... I was not allowed to be in close friendship with a guy... I always had a bestfriend (guy) secretly and when I first had a boyfriend, I had to hide it from the whole world afraid that my dad would burry me alive... talking to guys was something i had to do in my room while the doors are closed and with a very low voice... For God's sake I was asked to wear the veil on my 12th birthday...

Anyway, thats not the point... The thing thats bothering me is that my father raised me in that manner and NOW he says nothing about my brother bringing over his girlfriend... And when I complained he was like: "El walad 3'er el bent" (boys are different from girls)... And I was like "WHAT DA?!?!?!?!?!"... And we had this boring and long conversation where he convinced me that a girl obeys and HAS to obey but boys don't and will do whatever they want... And here is were I got REALLY furious... Is it my fault that I am obedient? I know i made so many mistakes because I had no other choice but to do stuff behind their backs, When they are really trivial stuff that do not deserve lying in the first place... but still they accepted the things that they wouldnt have accepted if it was me who did it...

My brother did not do anything.. He is a normal guy and I am not accusing him or envying him... I am just Annoyed by the fact that my parents are sexists... DAMN!
