lovin' that research

SenoraPostrophe · 04/08/2006 17:54

well I guess it could be true that there is a correlation between attractiveness and number of boys/girls, but that would be because boys are harder work and we mums are likely to go grey/wrinkly sooner surely? I was gorgeous befoere I had ds. am a hag now

flippin headline hunting scientists.

joelallie · 04/08/2006 18:44

SenoraP - that is a good point! DD eases my life - angelic child!. The DS's age me by the second....

mousiemousie · 04/08/2006 18:47

Feeling much more attractive now

Tinker · 04/08/2006 18:48

Definitely

flack · 04/08/2006 18:49

Does this mean the best way for me to conceive a girl next time would be to wear smart clothes and get a facelift?

Flossam · 04/08/2006 18:50

Well I think I am uglier now than pre DS - so does that mean I will only ever have boys??!!!

Lemmingswife · 04/08/2006 19:06

What nonsence! The Beckhams aren't exactually ugly, & they have 3 boys! Then there is Elle Macpherson, Catherine Zeta Jones (who had a boy first), Princess Diana, Louise Rednap & Malinda Messanger to name a few!

psychomum5 · 04/08/2006 19:28

absolute nonsense really, but......

does that mean tho that I then became ugly to have my boys???

kelly1978 · 04/08/2006 19:30

I have three boys and one girl, so I'm a dog!!

anyhow, isn't it the male who determins sex - maybe we should be eying up our partners!

psychomum5 · 04/08/2006 19:34

kelly.....my HV said just that.

the man gets out what he put in.....

nothing to do with beauty on the mums part, or the dads in fact.

my DH tho is bald, and he loves the fact that they apparently say that bald men are more virile.

i do wonder sometimes why on earth people do these studies, and who thinks them up.

SlightlyFamiliarPeachyClair · 04/08/2006 20:06

I thought if you had a sex more often (esp. around ovulation) you were more likely to get a by (male sperm swimming fast but not living long etc etc)

So either mingers are more likely to get a shag (unlikely) ofr this is BS.

Invested interest? moi? With three boys?

BTW, the most stunning woman I know has two sons.

Ofha nd the orgasm stuff? take it from me, not true

nightowl · 04/08/2006 20:27

hmmm. well i had a boy first and a girl many years later which would say i was ugly and am now attractive! erm...its actually the other way around...i used to be quite fit....now im just a bit haggard!

kickassangel · 04/08/2006 21:09

our family is riddled with women. the only way to get a boy is to marry one. you should see our family portraits (look out the Hiltons)

tiswas · 04/08/2006 21:10

That explains why Lady Posh Beckham only has boys doesnt it????

MadamePlatypus · 04/08/2006 21:51

But haven't ideals of beauty changed over the years? Can evolution keep up with things like whether its fashionable to have collagen implants in your lips?

Jazzi · 05/08/2006 10:47

..and thing I want to know is who determins attractiveness>???

I am so not posting on this thread cause I have boys

allyco · 05/08/2006 18:40

yes had also heard REAL men make girls.

So - I have four girls -that makes my DH a God and me a Goddess.

Hah

SlightlyFamiliarPeachyClair · 05/08/2006 19:00

Real men make girls

My mate froms chool has two girls

her Dh is hiding in Thailand running fake clothing through customs, and porno vids I believe. He's there coz his second wife (and he's still amrried to mate) lives there and hides his money. He is bankrupt here. His wife lives on income support and huge doses of anti-d's. She ahs been told if she starts a relationship with anyone he will kill her, but she is too far gone to do anything but accept it. She waited for him to leave her, as opposed to boot him out, even though he was using prostitutes.

Real man? HA!

(rant over sorry)

fullmoonfiend · 05/08/2006 19:10

But I also read recently that higher sperm count makes boys - so where's that 'real# men make girls thingy?

I know many, many ugly women with lotsa daughters...

Northerner, BettytheBuilder, I know I'm not a supermoggle, but I ain't too ugly am I?

Anyhoo, would happily settle for being strong and capable over fluffy pretty airhead. Honest

Northerner · 05/08/2006 19:28

I have met fullmoonfield and can vouch that even as a mum of 2 boys she is rather a svelte size 8 babe.

myturn · 05/08/2006 20:39

Well as mum to four daughters, I am obviously outstandingly gorgeous and dh is a real stud of a man.

As anyone who has met me will tell you.

Or not.
