A boy.

Because girls are Nancies, and they can't drink liquor.

I'll drink you under the table any day son :colonhash:

A girl definitely because I wouldn't have to tear my hair out figuring out why the opposite sex(if I have a son) is acting that way.

I would prefer a girl. I personally think they are easier to raise as kids and also if you do have another kid after them, they are generally more helpful than a boy would be :colonhash:

Plus whenever you take a boys nappy off they pee everywhere! :unimpressed:

It honestly wouldn't matter to me what gender my future child turned out to be, I'd still love him/her all the same. :h:

Obvious boring answer....

Before potty-training my boy I was queen of the 5-second nappy change.

Definitely a girl - so I can do all that protective father stuff

One of my reasons why.

I always thought that girls understand more and act more adult-ish. Yeah... I have nieces and they just act older than my nephews and little bro. And I would not have to deal the trauma boys bring (fights in school, fights with cousins, scaring the girls, fights with the sofa, fights with the food, fights with anything that are smaller than them really..... And also they cry more and at a younger age they don't feel shame).

You don't know if I am boring or not. I just knew that somebody is going to say the boring "It doesn't matter who it is... ".

Boy. Usually easier to deal with between 13-18. Also, who else is gonna carry on the family name?

My brother's sons are going to carry the family name.

Girl. I can't dress a boy up and teach him to do his hair/make up/paint his nails for him.

A girl. No contest.

I'd love to have a little girl but for practical reasons I'd choose a boy. Boys don't get preggers or have periods!

A girl, simply because I can think of more female names that I like than male ones. I find a lot of children don't conform to stereotypes so I wouldn't be worried about girl or boy problems. I loved both Hotwheels and Barbie as a child.
