It’s simply not easy being a girl and on top of that an only child. People around you get to say stuffs like “who is gonna look after you after your parents are gone". I hail from a hindu community, importance of having a brother is supreme as he is the one to perform specific rituals in his laadli sister’s wedding.

I have no problem with people’s thinking. It’s just that i wanna convey them that having a sibling is not an insurance which you get for life which most people think. Circumstances do break the strongest bond. Its high time those old nosy ladies realize that a women has the greatest power of being an origin to another life and she is certainly capable of looking after herself even when the world chooses to judge her based on her marital status.
