Topic: Guess the Gender Posted: April 03 2009 at 19:29 |
Now that I'm sufficiently *ahem* prepared (read: ) to consider the reality of another child, I wonder what people will guess regarding that child's gender.
Boy or girl?
Data:
-I have two brothers and a sister, in that order.
-My wife has an older brother and a younger sister (biologically...and then a HORDE of adopted siblings of various genders and colors).
-We already have one son named Simon.
-I like beer.
Go.

If I had to guess, I would go with a boy. But since I know the gender, I voted girl.

What's your address?

But it's 18 in Argentina.. The fact that Pablo is only 15 in no way discredits my argument.

However, being Argentina, the country you're talking about, you can get beer with just looking a bit grown-up.. I really don't want to make Argentina "look like stupid", but this country is what it is, unfortunately...

Well since the immutable laws of probability state the chance of having a girl is 1/2 and you have one boy already, your second child will have to be a girl to keep probability true.
An alternative proof goes like this 2 children * 1/2 = 1 girl.

actually the chance of a girl is about 51% ---- they make us remember these things, so I voted girl.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.
