> Mothers prefer daughters while fathers prefer sons, but fathers tend to keep their mouths shut about it

Hahaha, so true.

Myself I couldn't care less ... I actually wanted a girl because I see girls being more close to their parents (a selfish thought) ... but now my wife is carrying a boy, and I started thinking of all the father-son stuff we can do, and I'm really excited.

About the article ... I wouldn't be too worried, unless there is a provable reason for the current bias towards girls. In other countries women that don't get pregnant with boys are getting abortions at an alarming rate, making it very hard for men in their 20-ties to get mates (guess they should come to the US :))
