I have 5 children and 4 of them are boys. I have noticed that this is the case with those around me with many children. the majority tends to be boys more often than girls. Do you agree?

My 6 are evenly split-3 boys and 3 girls. I think that statistically, there are a few more boys than girls born.

which is odd considering that statistics state that there are more females born then males on any given day - perhaps those are within single child homes? Who knows. I do have a friend who has 4 girls...but I see more families with boys when their families grow large. one man I know is the oldest of 9 siblings ALL boys.

We have 3 girls. We'll have one boy come August. My BIL has 2 girls and 1 boy. I have two friends with 2 of each. Another with 3 boys and 2 girls. Another friend has 3 boy and 1 girl. I think it just varies, though a GENERAL trend I've noticed is one gender tends to run in a family [you know, 10 grandkids - 9 of one, 1 of the other, etc.].
