When I think about having a child that’s a boy, it’s almost a repulsion, like, Oh my God, no.

It's OVER for SonCels. Perhaps parents realize that the chance that a son reproduces is much lower than for a daughter? :rolleyes: :mad:

Polygenic embryo selection can currently increase your child's quality-adjusted life expectancy by 1-4 years, decrease their risk of various chronic diseases by 10-60%, increase their IQ by 2-8 points, increase height by up to 2.25 inches, and moderately improve other traits. The exact gain you can expect to get for each of these traits varies depending on the genetic correlation between the traits, the number of embryos you have to choose from, and the strength of the predictor used to select embryos, as well as simple luck.
A mother will kill her short-male embryo. :mad:
