Today, my family was discussing the new rules of the house we are moving in. They told my sister she couldn't have any boys in her room. They didn't tell me I couldn't have any girls in my room. Even my parents think I can't get a girlfriend. FML

Today, after returning from taking my sister off to college, my parents told me that our house would be a lot quieter with my sister gone. Not because she's loud, but because she has friends and I apparently don't. FML

Today, I was helping my dad move into his new house. It's a 4-bedroom house and he has three kids so it's perfect. I was wandering around and noticed that the first bedroom is his, the second is my older brother's, the third is my younger sister's, and the fourth is an office. I have no room. FML

Today, my mom won't let me have the extra hotel room she booked all to myself, even though it's just me, her, and my sister. Basically I can share a room with her or with my sister, but I can't be alone. I'm 23. FML

Today, my brother and his girlfriend are fighting about something they agreed on YEARS ago. Every couple of months this argument comes back and his girlfriend changes the rules or the definition. I can’t believe she gonna become my sister-in-law. FML

Today, I found out that if my husband and I move to another country to live, then his mom and sister will live with us too. I'm already living with them because of societal traditions. I like them and everything, but I really need some privacy. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I had a fight about his parents. We're both 23-year-old university students who aren't allowed in his bedroom unless the door is completely open. Nothing he says to his parents will change this. FML

Today, I was visiting my in-laws and sharing a room with my husband's 17-year-old sister. Later that night she and her brother of 24 years started fist-fighting over an air mattress and I had to pull them off each other. The brother later berated me with, "You can't handle any pressure!" FML

Great parenting

Today, my sister is upset that I won’t upturn my entire life by letting her kids stay at my house 4-5 days a week. She decided to move in with her boyfriend after one month, before even introducing him to her kids. Now he’s decided he doesn’t like the kids, so she wants me to keep them. FML

Thats just how parents are, way more protective over their "little girl" when it comes to the opposite sex

Maybe they specifically aren't forbidding you to have girls in your room...

Umm some parents are just like that. They tell the daughter she can't have any boys in her room, but not the son, because he can't get pregnant. It's a really screwed up way of thinking tho; because someone else's daughter is just going to get pregnant, and either of them could still get an STD. This isn't an FML, you just misinterpreted what your parents said.

thats just them being rather sexist. lol. not in a bad way, but girls are 'innocent', stemming from the Medieval belief that girls had no souls, and had to be led and guided along the good path, otherwise they would wreak havoc (aka, seduce a man, making him act without dignity). Parents now shelter the daughters, but with a different agenda (thank the lord), but men are still able to seduce women without being disgraced for virtue is different for each gender. My dad CONGRATULATED my brother, and actually bought him a whole new set of clothes- he was 15. He hit me, locked my electronics up, and kicked me out- i was 18. He was a little extreme in my eyes. :/ Consider yourself lucky.

Obviously you've never heard of something caled a "double standard", this is not a FML, at all. This is similar to a sitiuation I was in when I was 15 I came home on a friday night at 1 am, I walked in with my sister who was just getting home as well, my parents yelled and grounded her for coming home so late; and they simply asked me why I got home so early. Does that help you understand you're parents new rule. Its not that they don't think you can get a girl, tis that they don't want to stop you from getting one. Dumbass

So prove them wrong and let them catch you with a chick in your room.

Or maybe they just don't care. My parents were WAAAY more protective of me versus my brother. They don't say Daddy's little girl for no reason....
