And the full answer isn’t because of societal preferences – i.e. male babies being preferred over female babies for religious or economic reasons. Although that is a factor of course.

The main factor causing the imbalanced ratio of females to males is actually just evolution being clever (again). Due to the fact that men are more likely to suffer serious illnesses, take risks and be subjected to violence during their lifetime than women – coupled with the fact mothers are more likely to miscarry a male fetus during pregnancy – means that mothers will carry 150 male fetuses for every 100 female.

Take a look at this video by MinuteEarth explaining why there are more bouncing baby boys born every day than girls – even if the scales do end up balanced.

Why the sad faces? it's funny and it makes sense.

I think there are more women than men....

ladyF:
I think there are more women than men....

i think say na only me pinky are u pondering what am pondering
op is high, it should be more women than male or is NL now on pluto?

Where did you get this false info from?


There are by far more women in the world today than men. and till today, more girls are born.
There is always a higher probability that an unborn child will be a girl.

This is because, during intercourse the X(female) chromosomes from the man tend to swim faster than the Y(male) Chromosomes from him.


While a man has X and Y, a woman has two X chromosomes in her reproductive cells.
Each ovum(reproductive cell) carries an X chromosome.

If an X fertilizes an X, the baby would be a girl.
But when a Y fertilizes an X, the baby will be a boy.

most times the X Chromosomes from men swim faster than their Y chromosomes. Hence the X tends to enter and fertilize the chromosomes in women before the Y.

This is why we have more women today. It's been proven scientifically.

Cos men are polygamous by nature. More women foe fewer men

OP, please get a better research and post.....in about 5years time there would be about 65%-70% female of the worlds population so and according to the post of the chromosonal donors in male&female it just get to prove it more.....inshort in my church every thanks giving service for child dedication na 7 girls 1boy, this month again 6girls no boy.....I tire oo

you are wrong,theirs more males,check the facts and gender ratio!

u need to be very practical in this kinda stat, the statistics u read is what they want you to believe, why dont you do a practical insight of your own and you will see reverse is the case from your stats

doublex:

i gave you raw facts - a re-ocurring phenomena in the human species - a well laid out explanation, and you're still argueing?

This is why Nigeria is struggling to compete with the world in science and technology - too many lay men.

you gave me your raw facts,not the raw facts.post the links that show the gender ratio of nigeria,are more females

you are also wrong about the x chromosome being faster,its heavier and slower.either way post links and lets settle this,mister

didnt see this mention.but this is too funny mister! I disprove your 'facts' and tell you to provide evidence,so you say i should do a practical insight?hehehe,am a human not a machine who can count with my eyes how many people are there etc,thats why census was created.whats even funnier is your small conspiracy theory that this is what they want me to believe...the fact that you even got the science of the chromosomes wrong shows how your facts are wrong more-over in nigeria even with men going to outside countries,theirs still more men.CONCLUSION:THEIRS MORE MEN

U are a joke.....imagine u saying the chromosonal analysis is wrong as well as the men to women numbers, im just gonna be still maintain my stand with you and ask that u be practical for once even if u have never been and come back to give your observation and not always read what u find online.......
