Male dominant families

Well, if you take the idea that men mary women like their mothers... I don't know what to make of that really, I mean who wants to believe that? But I think DH's mom is pretty high testosterone. The man who married her? One of 4 brothers one sister. (His mom was high T?) So DH's mom had 2 sons, his brother married a high T woman who gave him- 2 sons. And Dh married me. I'm a little high T. I have had one son... (but I have 2 HT boy embies and 3 girls on ice right now! one of those girls is going to be a very rare daughter in this side of the family in a little over 9 months if all goes well!)

DH and I both come from very boy heavy family. If I take every generation on both sides atleast 75% were boys.

Lindi, Good Luck to you. I am having a good feeling about your FET :)

My hubby...has a half brother. his dad has 2 sisters (viking meat eating family). mom has 2 sisters (italian family).

My family is a mix of half and bio siblings... 2B and 4G (w/me). My dad has 1 sis and 4 bros (their kids are 60%B), my mom has 1 bro and 4 sis (their kids about 70%G)

My father-in-law had GBBG, but with 2 different wives, so my DH had 1 sister (who was stillborn) and 1 half sister and 1 half brother. His dad had 2 brothers and 2 sisters. His mum had 1 sister and 3 brothers. On his dad's side there is 1 aunt with 4 boys, the others had an even mix. His mum's siblings had even spilt of boys and girls. We have 3 boys, but there seems to be no history of gender dominance on DH's side of the family.
On my side, in my generation there was a huge dominance of girls for many years, then the amount of boys born seemed to catch up. In my children's generation there are more boys than girls, but then I have 3 of them. My mum is one of 6 (3B, 3G), my dad has 2 sisters.
I think I have 3 boys because I have a high testosterone. I read an article on it years ago when I was a teenager and felt I fit the symptoms back then. It doesn't seem that it is genetic though.

no my dh has more sisters than brothers and his brothers and sisters have more girls than boys. my family also has way more girls.

My hubby has 1 brother, we have 2 boys and his brother has 2 boys....mostly a boy family!!! I am trying to change that by trying to get a girl :)
