In summary, having a brother generally means having a male sibling who shares one or both of your biological parents. This can also be through adoption or marriage, but typically refers to a biological brother. You can determine if you have a brother by asking your parents or through a DNA test. If you do not have a brother, it means you do not have a male sibling who shares your biological parents. Siblings can also be of different genders, including sisters, half-siblings, or step-siblings.
