I Am Fascinated By Human Behavior

Why do people insist boys are so much easier to raise than girls? I hear this all the time! Everyone claims boys are so easy to raise. I think it's because parents treats boys better and favor them simply because they're boys, so it just seems boys are easier. They automatically disfavor girls because they're girls. I've seen this in so many families.

I totally agree about the being favoured part. (Not me personally)
I actually really dislike it. It’s disgusting in
My opinion. But I think it’s unarguably true that boys are Favoured and I’d even say wanted more. I’ve seen it myself with my own family members and just most people in general.
I have 3 daughters have personally seen the disappointment in my parents/grandparents and family of hearing each time I had a little girl.
I wouldn’t swap them for a boy even if I could. There my “babes”

@Frankie13 I can understand why men prefer boys and think they're superior. I don't understand it at all with women. Jealousy and competition I guess.
