Hey guys!!! I know most nairalanders know that the man is responsible for the sex of a child but I'd just like to inform the others who do not know.Okay for quite a long time women have been blamed for been responsible for the sex of a child in developing countries like Nigeria.In this post I'd like to clarify this misunderstanding in the simplest way I can.Every month,every woman releases an egg waiting to be fertilized by a sperm.It degenerates if it is not fertilized and the monthly menstruation occurs. Every man's semen(that is the liquid containing the sperms and other healthy materials like proteins) has sperms that can be of two types-the X and the Y.X stands for female and Y stands for male.During ejaculation,millions of sperm move towards the egg.If the first sperm that fertilizes the egg is an X sperm,the child will genetically be a girl(XX) and if the Y sperm is the first to fertilize the egg,the child will genetically be a boy(XY).As you can see XY indicating the boy shows that a man can give either X or Y and the XX indicating a girl shows that a woman will always give X.If you don't understand please indicate and I'll go over it again till you do.So as you can see the sex of a child is based on Luck so the fact that you got a boy when you married another wife doesn't mean that you're former wife was the reason behind you having just girls with her.

OK
