Gender selection

I have always been interested in the biological differences that are hard-wired in men and women. This interesting BBC article, discusses briefly how the gender choice of offspring is environmentally influenced. It appears that in different species different factors influence whether the offspring will be male or female. It seems our biology is way ahead of us. We are more in-tune with what goes on around us than we realize. Even our bodies realize it, we seem to have tuned that information out. Too bad. I simply think it is so interesting what stimuli are integrated into our functioning and we don't even know it--we don't even acknowledge it. Amazing.
The world is a cool place. The organisms that are 'us' are so fantastic. Take care of that organism!!
