The Number One Reason Boys are Better Than Girls

Written by mom - 9 Comments

As a followup to my list of five reasons that boys are better than girls, I’d like to point out a comment from a reader named Jim Durbin, who attributed the following to his father-in-law:

“With a boy, you just have to worry about one [boy]. With a girl, you have to worry about all of them.”

(The brackets denote editing by Jim to ensure family friendliness – use your imagination.)

  1. I’m sorry but I had no where else to say this. I’m sick of this boys are so much better than girls. All my life I’ve had to compete with my brother for my dad’s attention and guess who won it. Definitely not me because I was the annoying, blonde, little imp who spent too much time playing with dolls. And what hurt me even more is when I became a little older and I dropped the whole pink princess phase and became more interested in sports, base-ball in particular. He still didn’t like me, my brother was still untouchably high on the pedestle. I hate to sound over-dramatic but why is being a girl so bad? I’m not catty, I’m not a drama queen, I condemn the color pink, and I still watch base-ball whenever I can. You make the female gender out to be some kind of disease. Thanks for making the wound just that much deeper. I’ll make sure to let my brother know just how much better he is =(

  2. Hey Nina, don’t forget that the four boys came from someone who was once a little girl herself!

  4. I am glad that I was born a boy. I am just as glad that my wife wasn’t. Heheh.

    That being said, I hope that we have one of each, but we’ll be just as happy with whatever gender we get.

  5. I think that boys are easier for dads to relate to because they “is one”. That means there’s the same thought processes and they understand how they think.

    I don’t think that your dad loves you any less, Nina, it’s just that he relates better with his boy. (If this is the case at all– you should ask him about it.)

  7. Eh, in my view all these thought (of this website) is just for laughs….

    The comparison is annoying. Why a need for this? I don’t think anybody is better than anyother person. We all are same.

OK I have 3 girls and I am dead happy I am a girl, I think that why is it so horrible being a girl cause in my personal veiw I think there more important and you need more of them in the world( but of corse you need boys too) I think what the people did along time ago was horrible( in the bible) They basically said yea women are useless, rape them kill them they don’t matter, oh yeah I would like to go up to them and say Hey Bitches you all wanna die cause that the way it is, In my personal view Woman are more important then men and we need more of them, but of corse we need boys too I have 3 girls and I have a baby on the way witch I hope is a boy, But still what they did in the old days was horrible, Screw them
