you are obviously not understanding what he said, it is simple, Y sperm are more agile than x sperm if one has sex like a few days b4 ovulation and there is ejaculation, that is how the y sperm will swim very fast to wait for egg, but egg no show so the y sperm after waiting a while would have used their energy to run and die off, but the x sperm that was slow and steady, will now be the only ones left when the egg arrives to fertilise. That is why they say if you want a boy, have sex exactly during ovulation and for a girl, a few days before, but the bottom lie is whosoever will have a boy will do so and vice versa for girls.

All you typed above still boils down to the fact that the female reproductive system determines the sex of the baby and that was my argument. Since both the X and Y are released at the same time through the man's sperm into the woman's body. Whatever happens thereafter depends on factors from the woman, like availability of eggs, etc.

SmartBug:
Yes. You're right. In terms of survival, the Y chromosome depends on the females' body but that doesn't change the basic knowledge of sex determination.

It's still a Y for males and an X for females.

I'm sure you're intelligent and you know the meaning of the word ‘determinant’ so don't give it a new meaning.

So if the male ejaculates both X and Y chromosome and the female's body suppresses the Y chromosome in preference for the Y chromosome, doesn't that make the female the determinant of the baby's sex?

ExInferis:
I can't even think why I'd want a male child.

Daughters are the best.

Supported! Who boys epp

SmartBug:
Sex is determined by two chromosomes, X and Y.

A female is XX, a male is XY. Since women, completely lack the Y choromosome, they always contribute an X chromosome to the baby. As such, the baby's sex is determined by whether the sperm that fertilizes the egg is carrying another X or a Y.

And that's why education is so important... because I'm sure if only this man was a little more educated, he'd had known the ‘fault’ lies with him. And not his wife...

Though i don't support the man's action, i'll like to point out that the female is really the chief determinant of sex. Males release both the X and Y chromosomes per ejaculation but the survival of the Y chromosome depends on the females' body, like PH, distance from the cervix to the oviduct etc. The X chromosome has higher chances of survival in the woman's body than the Y chromosome.

Most of the guys attacking the op are actually scared that the post could make their babes begin to close legs. Lolzzz

Don't know why i feel like this isn't newsworthy...

first, Dentistry is a branch of medicine.

I'm Speaking On a federal government salary scale, Dentists earn way higher than Pharmacists. even During housemanship.

General dentists make, on average, around 120-180k/month; that's the same average as many primary care specialties in medicine. Dentists work for less hours and still get paid the same as their colleagues. main reason I switched from medicine to dental surgery.

I have Uncles that Are dentists. My Aunt is a maxilofacial Surgeon. she studied Dentistry. I Am also Studying the Course.


Nigeria as a whole has less Dentists, So work Opportunities are Numerous and Not Competitive, Hence It's a sort -after Profession.

I am aware that medical doctors and dentists earn cohess 12 for a start while pharmacists earn conhess10, but my dear, that amount dentists earn in a month, a pharmacist can make that in a day. Pharmacists who work with multinational pharm. companies also make more cash!

Estharfabian:
More lucrative?


definitely Dentistry.

You are very wrong! Pharmacy is more lucrative!

How many Nigerians see dentists? just a few! But everyone takes drugs. Simple logic.

I have many wealthy pharmacists around me, but the dental clinic in my area is always on ghost mode.

That is not to say every pharmacist, doctor, dentist must be RICH. It depends on individual in most cases. However, pharmacy will sure afford you more OPPORTUNITIES.

So, op go for pharmacy.

All these guys that are commiting and attempting suicide, don't they have loved ones I mean people they really care about Or are they so selfish that they don't care how those people will feel Too bad!

When we advise guys to take it easy with sex, they think say we no get action.

He who fuccks and runs lives to fucck another day.

tutudesz:
plz go there 1st to know 1st hand Mr man

U are d one who is typing ignorantly! I live and relate well with people from agbor, i am in a better position to advise you.

YungMillionaire:
God punish you for saying such a useless thing. Are you madt?!

E pain am!!! Lolz

wirinet:
And you think you people are more productive? You call importing and trading substandard products from China productive? It seems you do not know much about the itsekiris. Ask your brothers trading in warri to tell you more about the itsekiris.

Lol... No be only itsekiri, na ikechiri...Lmao

tutudesz:
Hope you know if you call an Agbor man Igbos he will insult you?

Presently, my neighbor in Benin is an Agbor man who is very proud of his igbo route. We communicate in igbo and the papa is so knowledgeable in igbo cultures and tradition, infact i learn from him.
My bae is also from there and proud of her igbo route.
So stop saying what you don't know.

Amarabae:
you don't have to insult them. Its not proper.
They have the right to make their own decision.

I've not insulted them! I only stated the fact, which is that they are unproductive.

Personally, i only care about igbos in anioma where i happen to have some ties.

What good are itshekiri people known for Nothing!
Please my people let's cut off all redundant tribes from Biafra!

Go for it if you really have the passion.

Only lazy men find it hard to do house chores.

Truth is, most of the people commenting against the man on this thread are yorubas. I've used all the search engines while looking for a reliable news source where Michigan state university came out to describe Emeagwali as fraud, but none. Only Sahara reporters claims the man is fraud, and sahara reporters has severally proven to be an unreliable news source, not with their recent lie that Dino did not graduate from ABU.

The envy is real mehn!

ADAMUdaCOWBOY:
If he is who he claims to be, many other sites will talk about him, why should all the stories about Emeagwali com from his site?

It is only sahara reporters and haters like you that are claiming he is fraud. Emeagwali's high intelligence is acknowledged by many including our dear former president Bill Clinton.

Any unbiased mind who visited his site and read those materials he put up there would not doubt his mental prowess. The guy is a genius!

LastProphet:
am surprised to see a fraud like emiagwali resurrected in a large forum like nairaland

Go hang yourself!!!

For all you doubting Thomases, check more facts about Emeagwali at emeagwali.com/. He's indeed a genius!

This same stupiid Indians that have made Nigeria a dumping ground for their fake drugs?

I don't blame them, it's because our government has failed in all areas, that is why common indians now turn Nigerians to their slaves both in india and even in Nigeria. It's a shame!

I wish our leaders can think for once and organize our drug market, invest in drug development and production, and revamp our health sector as a whole. If we stop depending on other countries for everthing and start being productive on our own, all these disrespect will cease.

Some nigerians are so stup1d that they can't even handle failure. After wasting your time in the uni and graduating with a 3rd class, you are now looking for someone to compare yourself with Failures!

Why is it that the so called witches seem to avoid those that don't believe their existence Isn't that an indication that they exist only in the figment of the imagination of those that believe they exist

Poor woman!

1.0 would have been better I.M.O, so that students can sit up.

Junia:
He allows free will.
Which good and loving father doesn't punish his or her disobedient child

Atheist thinking ...
Sha

Lol..if i knew that such freewill would lead my cherished creatures into commiting sins that could make me cast them into hell, i will not allow it at all.

Junia:
God created man and man was wicked.
He took away their lives because He gave them life.
In this way, God is displaying is wrath.

The same way when i have a business and i have unfaithful workers, i will sack them to make room for faithful ones. I was able to sack them because i employed them
In this way, i am displaying my wrath.

Now we are in the era of love. So God doesn't kill us for our sins because He bore it on the cross.
Now you have your free will to do what you want.
At the end, you will account for it.

Lol...Christians and their reasoning sha..

Your bible described 'god' as all loving and all powerful, yet he couldn't stop satan from causing man to sin against him. Also, you always say that 'god is love', should we also say that 'god is wrath'?

If i am an all loving and omnipotent god, who created man in image and likeness, i'll not even create anybody a criminal ab initio nor allow satan input crime into my cherished creatures.

eyinjuege:
Now I understand...
It's a cultural thing. If that's their culture and he's an Igbo man, I guess he can follow it. But if he's another tribe, it probably sounds strange, and in the OPs case annoying

I think most cultures in Nigeria share that norm, unless the Op is from the west.

Your father inlaw just want to maintain a close contact with you like most elderly people do and that is what you now see as trying to control you

Simply explain to him that you'll visit only when your tight schedule permits.

Yet i'll not advise any woman to remain married to an abusive husband for whatever reason.
