Yeah, but some argue that the it might be hurtful to the older sister to see her sister being married befroe her. I'm not saying it's right, but it is a cause for concern. I'm just glad I don't have an older or younger sister!

I personally know of several girls who waited for older sisters and it only hurt them. A) they got married before their sisters anyway-except it was at the age of 23 and B) they just hurt their own prospects by waiting to start later. Also, I don't know many people that would want their younger sisters to wait (I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I knew I was holding my sister back). I think it's generally the parents, but in truth, the older daughter would be able to deal with it. I also know of someone who waited for a sister and started going out at around 23-and is still single some 10 years later-which is not to say that's why she's single-but it certainly didn't help. In this day and age where 20 is ancient, people can't afford to wait around too long.

My younger sister and younger brother got married before me and I would never have asked them to wait. H-shem sends every person's match in the right time. Obviously, 7 years ago was the right time for my sister, and not for me.

Essie, I truly admire your level of Bitachon and contentness. I wish you Bracha v'Hatzlacha.

That's a little extreme, don't you think?

Nice gesture, but I wouldn't encourage anyone to do such a thing. If anything I would advise against it.

I would be curious to know what people think about a younger brother getting married before an older sister, is it an issue at all and if so how should it be dealt with?

The bottom line is simple. There is no reason whatsoever to keep the younger sister waiting. Let's face it, if they both have a minimum C cup and a puffy camel-toe they will obviously both end up getting married. The question is just when. My guess is that the sis with the bigger boobs hooks the guy first. But then again...G-d's will rules.
