[SOLVED] Probability Problem

[Joe]

If I understand correctly, taking a life science approach to this, it's not 33%. I didn't care enough to pay attention back in 6th grade when we talked about sex (I lit my binder on fire using a magnifing glass one day, though. Teacher yelled at me), but I think there's a chance somewhat less than 50% for a girl to be born, and a bit more than 50% for a guy, and that it doesn't change at all after the first child.

It's a probability problem.  When presented with a situation like that, you give them equal odds.

Why, Joe, are you expecting?

Yes, you know I definately got laid. :p

You probably just sucked a double-headed dildo on a hovercraft.
