Depending on your brothers' attitudes, it could be nerve wracking thing to do. I'm not very familiar with how your society sees such things, but I think that's something that should, in most cases, be told to family. Just be prepared for possible awkward experiences.
When I told my mother and father that I'm bi, things went fairly well. My father was fine with it (hippy artist from England, big surprise there). My mother was fine with it, and even told me about some of her experiences with experimenting when she was younger. >.> We were in the car and I was driving, so I couldn't jump out of the car to escape the weirdness of having my mother talk about her experiments with women. Damn I did not want to hear about that. My brother's mostly cool with it, he just doesn't bring it up much. On my 21st birthday (legal age for drinking here), he and his wife took me out. As they drove me home, she questioned me about my sex life. Me being a happy, chatter drunk and a generally open person, I told her pretty much everything. She was surprised and amused, my brother seemed to wish he had been left in the dark on such matters.
