Is it advantageous to go first?

Usually, when I'm white, I lose a lot less than I win, whereas if I'm black, I lose a lot more (Although I do win sometimes). So is chess fair this way?
I have a better score with black than white. So in my specific case, no. (GM Suba also claimed that black was OK.) The games of most GMs have shown that white does have a higher winning percentage. Below 2000, the advantage is not statistical significant.
I like black more cause when I play white I am disoriented beacause a play my brother a lot and he is always white
