How is the balance between boys and girls maintained?

In a related question, why do they have so many people in India and China, but not in Canada??? If that doesn't prove god being responsible then I don't know.

Most Canadians are gay because they hate God.

[Dauphin]

God hates Canadians. It must be so, else He wouldn't have shoved the USians in as their neighbours.

Why birth, and not say reproductive age, which would be more relavent for evolutionary considerations, as I understand it.

I don't think there's a difference, but we shouldn't talk about both at the same time. I'll say that God also determines what the ratio between boys and girls of reproductive age will be.

[KrazyHorse]

In every country in the world there are slightly more boys born than girls. The world ratio is 1.07. No country in the world differs by more than 0.06.

You are either an idiot who doesn't understand the binomial distribution or you are a genius troll.

In other news there aren't many people liiving on top of mount everest.

gibbler, when will all the boys be born on one continent and all the girls on another?

Yeah, god probably doesn't like mountains.

[Kidlicious]

Every mountain we be made low.

Probably never. Sperm goes in, boys and girls come out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that.

When will one person win the state lottery in ten successive draws?

[Kidlicious]

Probably never. Sperm goes in, boys and girls come out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that.

Wrong answer. If you really believe what you said you wouldn't be shocked if that happened with the next generation, because it WILL happen.

[Kidlicious]

When God blesses someone very much.

[giblets]

Wrong answer. If you really believe what you said you wouldn't be shocked if that happened with the next generation, because it WILL happen.

In all seriousness, I would be shocked because it's extremely unlikely. Just as I'd be shocked if I got struck by lightning, and that's a far more likely event.

[Kidlicious]

Then you don't believe that statistically unlikely things happen? What about life? Are you "shocked" by the existance of life?

[giblets]

I don't think they never happen. I just find it very unlikely that everyone in Asia will be born a boy while everyone in North America is born a girl in the future.
