Why do I feel uncomfortable around my shirtless brother?

[Anonymous]

I'm not attracted to my own brother but I feel uncomfortable when he's shirtless. I'm terrified at staring at his chest or something.
When we're eating at the table I can't talk to him because his lack of shirt is distracting

He gets annoyed when I tell him to put a shirt on especially since it's hot indoors.

We're not close and we barely hug each other, I don't know if this information helps

Usually the brain registers the scent of people you grow up with in a way that nullifies possible sexual attraction, but if that hasn't occurred siblings can be aroused by each other.

But being that you don't believe you're attracted to him, I would wonder if other guys being shirtless would bother you as much.

sounds a bit like you´re so in fear that your brother might sexually arouse you that you want him to put a shirt on. i mean why is it distracting?

Boys will boys. It might make you uncomfortable with him being a man now - hairier and more muscular - I get the sams problem with my brother. But guys love stripping their tops all whenever they get the chance, so it might be something you just have to accept.

I'm pretty sure most guys wouldn't feel comfortable if their sisters walked around in panties all the time, so you're fine.

This sounds like your being socially awkward with your bro
