Any feisty women had all girls?

i cant bear all this gubbins about strong women have boys.
I have four and one girl.
My mum was a feisty stern and mad cow and had four girls.
Why do I ( a quite but not THAT domineering woman) keep being blessed with long tails?

I am not at all strong & I have two boys!

NotAnOtter · 01/08/2006 20:33

I am very laid back! Too much so!

What gubbins is this, NQC? Never heard it before. I have heard that super-virile men have only girls but since that was from my dad (who has 2 daughters of whom I am 1) I ignored it. Tell me more of this bizarre myth, please.

Scoobydooooo · 01/08/2006 20:38

ok so what does it mean if you have one of each

NotAnOtter · 01/08/2006 20:39

i thought lower sperm counts beget girls

Sorry NAO- don't know why i misread your name as NQC. I will tell my Dad your theory re girls, heh heh heh

indignatio · 01/08/2006 20:42

Nah
dh has not been blessed re sperm count and I have a boy - feisty - me - yes - doesn't help does it

Uwila · 01/08/2006 20:42

I'm feisty, and I have one of each. Thinkit's the man's little fish who determines the sex anyway.

KRat · 01/08/2006 20:43

cod's a pussycta

NotAnOtter · 01/08/2006 20:43

I can be a right old ballbreaker

three girls here

Moomin · 01/08/2006 20:49

i have been described as feisty (mostly by men who are scared of me) and i have 2 dds. mind you, dh probably has more oestrogen in his system than me - plus he's works with anaesthetic which is supposed to affect sperm of summat and lead to more girls AND he's in a 'caring' profession which is sposed to have the same effect. so maybe his wussiness has run my butchness out of town

NotAnOtter · 01/08/2006 22:31

what can i do to girly up his seeds!

I have one daughter and have been told more than a few times that I am terrifying

And what about MotherInferior? She's on holiday, so I dare say it [whispers] two girls and she's not exactly a wimp, is she?

expatinscotland · 01/08/2006 22:37

I'm pretty fierce and I have two girls.
