**Loy Toy** · 03-02-2009, 05:13 PM

Thanks for the update BB and it a very interesting subject that most of us who are lucky enough to be able to have children will consider.

^Life is "silly" - but it's true! I have two (grown-up) boys; I was a year either side of 30 when each was born. Each have one boy - one girl - in that order. Both had them late in life.

**cimboc** · 03-02-2009, 06:07 PM

Two boys and one girl.... that I'm aware of

**Mr Pot** · 03-02-2009, 06:54 PM

Yep, you get that when people like you make big statements about things they know nothing about.

The chromosomes are tiny threadlike structures which each carry about 2,000 genes. The genes determine the baby’s inherited characteristics, such as hair and eye colour, blood group, height and build. The fertilised egg contains one sex chromosome from the mother and one from the father. The sex chromosome from the mother’s egg is always the same and is known as the X chromosome. But the sex chromosome from the father’s sperm may be an X or a Y chromosome. If the egg is fertilised by a sperm containing an X chromosome, the baby will be a girl (XX). If the sperm contains a Y chromosome, then the baby will be a boy (XY).

Strang how the mind works. I read this, it's common knowledge taught in grade school (grade 1 - 6) back home. I knew it as well as I know anything I've ever learned in grade school. I'm not religious and haven't looked at a bible in ten -fifteen years, But reading the (xx) vs (xy) thing; I just couldn't help but think, The book of Genesis got it all wrong...

So basically mouthy Western women are more likely to conceive boys than their feminine Asian sisters.

It is an interesting article, but more research needs to be done imo.
You are also stereotyping, and generalising about all western women being mouth and unfeminine. Tsk, tsk.

To answer the OP, I have no children yet. I'm still waiting for Mr. Right, as opposed to Mr. right now.

Children are meant to have two mature, and loving parents. It is the least they deserve.

**Rattanaburi** · 05-02-2009, 10:24 AM

Just one girl for me. All I ever really wanted.

2 boys, one coming up for 7 the youngest is just over 18 months. Little buggers both of them.

**forreachingme** · 04-03-2009, 06:25 PM

3 girls, 2 [at] home , 3 years and 5 years soon and the 11 years old is abroad for school by grandparents, was tough to let her go, but seems good choice, she comes over whenever possible and this will be in few days again for near 2 month...

You are correct, but don't argue with her or she will carry it thru every fucking thread on here.

And I had 1 son die at 38 years of age in 1995 and one son die at 38 years of age in 1998.
Plus 3 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren.

My five boys were mothered by my mouthy, confident, (but still feminine) ex wives.

I agree that children thrive when they have two mature and loving parents. Unfortunately, both my ex wives disagreed with you.

If you can't be with the one you love, love the one your'e with.

**dirtydog** · 16-02-2011, 11:14 PM

In England if you said you had one of each you would have 2 children, in Thailand that could well mean 3 children.....
