Which Of The Weird Sisters Are You Most Like?

as an only child, I didn't identify with their roles as much a pieces of each character. I did view the birth order roles very similar to those in my husbands family though, he is the youngest of 3 with 2 older sisters.  

I am so totally Rose! I take everything on as my responsibility, and I attempt to manage every situation so I can stay within my own comfort zone. As I was reading, I could see myself in her, and really found myself getting upset when her family was pushing her to leave LOL!

I found myself identifying with all three characters. I, too, am one of three sisters (the baby). At times I am the responsible voice of reason. I had a few years like Bean where I lost myself in other bad habits. And being the baby in the family, I definitely identified with Cordy so much.

Cordy! I could identify with all 3, of course, but I am the youngest, the fuck-up, the one who lived fairly unconventionally compared to my staid and successful brothers. (I did manage to avoid getting pregnant, though, until I was ready!) I'm the one from whom they ended up expecting little, not that I was unreliable, but because I was not pursuing a professional life and lifestyle.

And honestly, much of the time I wish I could grab a backpack and just go...but to the mountains and trails, not to live in squatters' houses like Cordy.

I could identify with all 3, to an extent. However, I think I'm most like Rose--which kind of makes me sad. Seeing so many similarities between myself and Rose was kind of an eye opener.

I am the youngest of 2, yet I have a unique situation in that my older brother has Down's Syndrome. Because of this, I am more like Rose - when I am around him, I take charge. I like to think this gives my parents a break. I wonder what I would have been like had I truly been able to be the youngest sibling...

I definitely feel like I identified with bits and pieces of each sister, as opposed to one completely.

I see myself having parts of all three sisters, but really identified with Bianca, in terms of wanting to leave the small town she was from. I grew up in one of those little towns and spent most of my adult life in Dallas, now Colorado Springs. Thankfully, city living has agreed with me in a way it didn't for Bianca, but I do relate to why she wants something more.

I am the youngest of three sisters and could see a little of us in each of the characters. I think sometimes we each play our part but most identifiable was Cordelia. At one point living out of a backpack was romantic but as we age we have to put our roots down and make a home for ourselves.

I'm an only child, but I think I have more Rose in me. A little more serious, responsible and self-important. There are definitely positives and negatives to each of these personalities.

I found parts of myself in all of the sisters. At some points in the book I was completely one of the sisters and other points not so much like any of them. Of course, then my children filled in as one of the sisters.

I don't know if I'm really that much like any of the sisters. But I think I'd like to be a little more like Cordy. Just a little less attached to people and locations. A little more free to move along, and start new projects. And really. . . I love to bake:-)

There was definitely a time in my life when I'd have been most like Bean. Now, though I'd love a bit more don't-care-what-they-think like Cordy, I'm definitely most like Rose!

Although I think I have characteristics from all three, I do think that Rose is probably the sister that resonates with me most!

Considering I am not particularly a fan of ANY of the sisters, it's hard to identify myself with one. Or rather, I don't want to. That said, I'm clearly a Rose. Total A-type personality, and caring for my younger brother more than I should. My mom joked that he was so late to talk because I was always doing it for him!

Well, this is a tough one. I think it's hard to pinpoint just one that I am like and I can see a little of myself in each of them. I'm the middle child of 3 and moved from college to NYC, but not for the same reasons as Bean. I think we all want attention (middle children, yay!) but my ways of finding attention geared more toward me acting like Rose and trying to keep everything running smoothly. And ultimately, I moved to NYC much as I think Cordy might have... because it was something to do. So, there we have it. All three!

Between you and me and, well, everyone here, I have a lot more of Rose in me than I care to admit. As the eldest, I've spent a lot of time taking care of things for my younger sibs and trying to hold everyone together -- especially in hard times. But I have also shed a lot of that as I've gotten older and had children of my own (I wonder if Rose would too?

But I also understand Bean. I've had my share of Bean-ness in my life too (the escapism, not the theft).

But Cordy? Not so much ... I understand on some level why she is how she is, but I am just not like that at all.

Must be the oldest child thing.

I saw myself in each of the sisters, but oddly enough I saw myself in the mother as well. I have three daughters and I found myself thinking about their future. I loved the way Brown showed the mother's love for her daughters by encouraging their choices and personalities.

One of the aspects I loved most about the book was Brown's ability to prove that we are all three weird sisters.

I am the eldest in my family, and I certainly have MANY of Rose's qualities (a place for everything and everything in it's place!) But at the same time, I related to Bean's desire to reinvent herself and her comparisons to other's in order to define herself. I am the child that moved away to try and "discover" new things, new places. Perhaps that's Cordy, but perhaps that's more of Rose as well.

Fortunately and unfortunately, I related to all of them. My favorite line sums it up, "We are all fuckups in our own special way."

Although I'm an eldest daughter, I am, unfortunately, most like Bean. What I would give to have a little more of Rose in me.

Looks like there a lot of us here, but I am definitely most like Rose. I have no sisters (no siblings at all actually), but am very much the stereotype of the oldest child. Hyper responsible and perfectionistic. I also had trouble in early adulthood with separating from my parents. I felt so much obligation, sure that they needed me. I've worked on that, but it's a pull that's hard to resist.

I can't assign myself to be similar to just one sister. I'd like to think that I'm a combination of all 3 of them in the sense that my younger years I could relate to Cordy then Bean, and eventually where I am now which is more like Rose.

I am ROSE. I am a homebody, aleays shy, never outgoing, trying to keep the fsmily calm and stuck together!

It would be impossible for me to pinpoint just one sister that I am most like. I'm like Rose because when things need to be done in my family if/when none of my siblings can take charge, I will. I'm like Bianca because I absolutely felt the need to leave home after high school, but I left the big city (NYC) and went to Vermont, so the opposite of her, but still monumental in that a huge part of who I am is because of my time in Vermont. What I love about Cordy is how she floats. I was kind of like that in college. I traveled a lot and bounced from place to place. Experiences like that can truly change who you are as well. So I'm not specifically like one, but all.

Rose...DEFINITELY Rose. Except I'm so conscientious I just COULDN'T steal that half-sized little pint glass! I just couldn't.

In college, I had trouble really separating from my parents. Thankfully, my dad gently told me I needed to stop calling them for advice about EVERYTHING. Well, THAT advice was hard to hear! But I gradually learned to become more independent, and I'm so glad my dad carefully pushed me out of the nest. It prepared me for adulthood and for marriage, and as I grow older, I appreciate the relationship I have with my parents, on an adult level.

I'm Rose-like. For awhile I was Bean-like. I don't see myself as Cordy-like, though I can also see at one point in my life where I *wanted* to be like her. I'm very oldest sibling, but I also lost myself for awhile there.
