[quote=Anonymous]I agree it's annoying, I think I find it particularly so because I'm from a cultural that stereotypically and historically values boys more, so the "are you disappointed you had another girl" question carries extra meaning. Other people do see it as a failure/shortcoming. (Which makes it even ruder that they say it!) I will say my husband has said numerous people have said this to him--he is caucasian--and he finds it really shocking. But we just brush it off. I always wish I would reply "why didn't you guys have more kids?" or "did you wish you had had a girl instead?" to the asker, but it's just rude, so I never think of it at the time. [/quote]
