About a year ago, we at choose-sex-of-baby.com made available a no-cost evaluation of our Amazing Gender Selection Software to those who visited the website. Parents could give us their dates of birth and the year in which they planned to have a baby, and also tell us whether they wished to conceive a girl or a boy, and we would run the information through our programme, analyse the results and send them our recommendation.

Contrary to what we were told to expect, most of those who took up our offer wished to have girl children. During this past year, a majority of people who took our paid service also indicated preference for girls. This desire to conceive a girl was not restricted to couples from the US.

What could be the reason for many people wishing to conceive girls?

One of the reasons parents wish to could be that today's world is an rewarding and exciting place for girls, with so many opportunities and experiences awaiting them that that simply wasn't there even some years ago. Parents have no special anxieties about girl children than they have about boys.

One reason which we have been encouraging parents to learn how to choose the sex of your baby is health-related. If either parents have a family history of diseases that are genetically transmitted through the female line (X-chromosome linked), the best way to protect their progeny from the defect is to try and improve the odds in favour of a particular gender. If the mother carries genes for such illness, it is considered better for her to give birth to girls, to break the transmission of the disease. We do not really know how many parents thought of this when they said they wished to know how to conceive a baby girl.

Perhaps the most common reason is emotional. We saw that most of those who took our free trial were women. In most families today the bonds between mother and daughter are quite strong. They are able to share more of their thoughts, desires, dreams and experiences; they are very close friends. This could also be the reason for our receiving so many requests for recommending dates for conceiving a baby girl.

Just to check how right our assumptions were we conducted a search on the internet to see what people had to say about the preferences of parents for girls. This is what we found: positives of having a girl include the belief that girls are pretty and the parent can "dress them up," that girls are strong and independent, that girls carry stronger family bonds, mothers can are able to share more with daughters and that the "world is kinder to girls.

At the same time we also found that some couples wanted to have girl children because they thought that girls and fathers share a special relationship.

Some families opted for daughters either because they already had daughters and wanted more of them, or already had boys and wanted a girl to have at least one of each.

One particular answer was striking: that when parents get older, chances are that daughters will be available to support by being present and care more than sons, perhaps because they are able to decide how and when they wish to be with their parents than the boys. "Girls are more compassionate. When you are older they will come visit you. Boys will most often become part of their wives' family"
