    Well I want to know just that. My question wants to know why is it that people want a son in the first place.

    They're not openly going to say that it is because they want a protector/provider and that they view females as inferior. I've noticed it's quite subconscious. But usually, that's why people want sons. Especially for first borns. They'll say things like "Boys are stronger, and less emotional. You don't have to deal with all that drama girls have. And if we have a daughter later, he'll be able to take care of her and protect her." Something along those lines.

      Hmm, I'm not sure about that one. I want a son and a daughter, for no other reason that I simply want a son and a daughter. But I really hope my first born is a girl :)

      Your question was "Is it normal that I hate pregnant couples that want a boy", NOT "IIN I don't know why pregnant couples want boys".

      I don't think it's normal to hate a couple just because they have a preference. Some couples want a daughter, do you hate them too?

      I understand resenting those people who maintain 'traditional' ideas that imply daughters and females in general are inferior though. That's fair.
