Is it really??? The word brother is not always used to describe gender.
Brother
1. A male person who has the same father and mother with another person, or who has one of them only. In the latter case he is more definitely called a half brother, or brother of the half blood.
2. One related or closely united to another by some common tie or interest, as of rank, profession, membership in a society, toil, suffering, etc.;
3. One who, or that which, resembles another in distinctive qualities or traits of character.
I could go on with the defintions of the word brother that have nothing to do with your gender, but you get the point...I hope
