Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 What a wonderful topic! I have noticed that the incidence of girls is extremely high compared to boys (we have way more girls than boys) and I have been wondering why. I do know that boy babies (in and out of utero) are more delicate than girls. I have not been able to find any information about what the statistics are though (what percentage of babies born are girls vs boys) but from my own circle of people I know, it is waaayyyy more girls than boys.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Even beyond the ratios of boy vs girl births.... Boys are more effeminate these days then they used to be. We've gone from " real men " to " metrosexual " ... Marlboro man vs our current sex symbols. its interesting to look at ... but there are fewer muscular, strong men who aren't stuck behind a desk. Even in my own family. the boys are thing as rails, barely able to stand against a strong wind, at least as *I* see them Is this due to the amount of phyto-estrogens in our diets (ie: Soy), or is it just another cycle that the world is following?

We just went to an extended family christmas party, and out of all of the children 10 and under (I think about 12 altogether) only 2 were girls. So, at least in our family, the opposite seems to be true. Though, (shining with pride), my boys seemed to be the healthiest ones there, and I know none of the other parents are into traditional foods. The potluck style dinner was SAD, but it was totally worth it to see family members I haven't seen in years. Merry Christmas, Roxanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
