[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 of each.   There are innate biological differences that I find wonderful and interesting and enjoyable.  I think anyone that makes a big deal about the gender of their child will miss out on the fun and happiness that they can teach us.    I revel in their differences and my boys have exposed me to some topics and hobbies I would have never known about if it weren't for them and their interests.

I had a friend years ago that HATED little boys.  I had to stop being friends with her after I had my first son(he was my second child) because it came up so often with her that it felt downright rude after a while.  She would say things like "oh it doesn't matter what clothes you buy boys...they are just boys".  Or "I have to get my daughter's tear duct fixed because she's a girl and it will be gross to have her eye tearing up all the time.  If she was a boy it wouldn't matter".      It was honestly kind of disgusting.

Yes my boys were messier and dirtier and more physical as young children (OK, as older teens they still are messier and dirtier and more physical lol).  But my love for them is all that mattered to me and any inconveniences from EITHER the boys or girls were just things about them that were part of them .
