WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Don't call us 'sisters'—that's not what we are to each other.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Sworn Sibling Dynamics

Labeling close bonds as 'brothers' or 'sisters' establishes social expectations and boundaries; disputing these terms often reflects flirtation or shifting relational status.
