Hello!
Your brother seems pretty normal to me; likewise Nikky my daughter is wicked close. Your brother is just starting puberty, or is already started and that means his hormones are raging just the same as any other boy his age. Curiosity in sex, "hair down there", masturbation and as to why girls have breasts, how girls act differently, all these things are quite normal for a boy about to enter his teens.
Now you have a big responsibility, and that is to lead; lead by example since to him you're Big Sis will have to answer his questions that come from his insatiable curiosity. I think though, you need to set up boundaries as to how far he can go with his wrestling, again a normal young male activity though it might be a good idea to ask your parents to have your brother enrolled in a martial arts club. Nikky has followed me into Aikido, and very good she is, too. Joining a martial arts club will help him relate to boys his own age as they learn under a licenced professional, and there is a discipline within these martial arts clubs and brilliant camaraderie: growing in mutual trust and friendship.
You must also tell your brother that you need privacy sometimes and that means he respectfully knocks on your bedroom door and waits until you call him in. That's another boundary, too.
I'm going to recommend you a book to help your brother. It's called: What's Happening to Me?: Boy
You might also be interested in a similar book, but for girls: Girls Only! All About Periods and Growing-Up Stuff I gave this to Nikky who found it very helpful.
Welcome to Teen Hut Forums, by the way. I hope you stay and enjoy yourself.
Best,
Poppi

thank you very much

Tell your brother to give you some space. He can't be peeking around like @sarrah1555

yeah, it's fine if you answer any questions he may have, and you may even want to tell him he's welcome to ask, but if he starts spying or getting handsy you need to teach him about boundaries

My little brother does the same thing.

I sounds like raging hormones with your brother, I do not have siblings but some of my girl friends do and have the same problem with brothers going through puberty, but you will just have to explain to him that you are not comfortable with whats he is doing.
Hope things work out for you.
