[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wanted all sons.

Of course, I wanted a healthy child and we kind have loved any gender—-but my preference was boys.

I have 2 boys and my sister has 3 boys. She always wanted a daughter. I never did.

Yeah. No periods and pms and all of that. Less worry over all with boys. You worry about a daughter’s safety there entire lives (male predators, driving alone, Ubers alone, living alone, walking in the dark, etc) in a way you don’t with young adult/adult sons. [/quote]

Thats a BIG worry with having a daughter. As a woman, I have always had to live with caution and fear and I hate the same for my daughter. Women have way more options today than previous generations but this will never go away. It sucks.

On the other hand, with a boy, I worry that no matter how hard I work on him and try to raise him with the right values, he could end up being the kind of man perpetrating such crimes against the opposite sex. 
Another thing with boys is that the world has changed so that women can be independent and expect equal partners of men but many men dont seem to have caught on to that fact and stepped up to it. Relationships have to have both partners working to keep the household afloat, a lot of men need and want that of their partners but shrug off a lot of the household and childcare stuff (both physical and mental load) onto their women. No wonder, women would rather be childless cat ladies and rightfully so. Am afraid that even with all that I try to teach my son, he'd end up mired in the manosphere toxicity[/quote]
