Mindteaser

Ok sports fans here is another mindteaser for you...same prize as last time (a T-mobile card...one prize per month).


Which one of the following words does not belong with the others and why?
Father
Aunt
Sister
Cousin
Mother
Uncle


UPDATE: I have posted all of the responses to this question. Let me say that no one has got it correct. Someone did figure out the answer but not for the obvious reason, and when you find out you will go...d'uhhhh. So the prize is still up for grabs...now go get it.

UPDATE 2: The answer is: Cousin does not belong since all the others refer to a specific sex. So the winner is my sister Angela in Salt Lake City...way to go AFGG

It is either cousin because it has 3 vowels and the others have two, or it is aunt because aunt has one syllable and the others have 2 - or maybe it is both because you did say "words" in the question. AFGG

Aunt - only one syllable?

The word "Aunt" doesn't belong. It is only 1 (one) syllable and the other words are all two syllable words.

Ok it is cousin because the others refer to a gender and cousin could be either gender. Is that right?? AFGG

I think it is cousin because a cousin is not a direct relative.

It is cousin because cousins can be either male or female. All of the other words are gender specific. Sally Peters
