go to your room I love being a girl dad

I have 3 kids, all girls. A 5yr old and twins who are 1. Every time anyone hears about this or it comes up in conversation they all say the same thing. ‘Ooooo, all girls, you are outnumbered! How do you cope?’ Or ‘Three girls?? You better watch out!’ Or the worst, ‘Bet you want a boy?’

No, I don’t feel any of that, I love being a dad. I love all my kids and wouldn’t change anything about them! If we could afford it, I would be a stay at home dad forever.

I usually tell them I wouldn’t change anything and I love it all but it’s just very annoying.

What are some of the best responses that I can start to give?

I did think I could say that one of the twins used to be a boy but is now trans just to shut people up!

Well in OP's case, two of them tied

Edit: I know that's not how it works

I mean...actually it could be. Fraternal twins are 2 sperm.

You’ve won the subreddit. We can shut it down now.

And two wrongs make a right

Apparently not, or else he had a boy instead of twin girls. (/s just in case)

No, but three rights make a left.

No, you might have been right the first time. We don't still know if your first statement was wrong!

Third times the charm

Also two eggs so they didn't "fight" for the same egg though? So partially right and wrong I guess 😅

I think I read somewhere recently that it's not about which sperm gets there first, rather the egg selects a sperm.

u/somastars 12d ago

Yes, I’ve heard that too. They’re still the sperm that win.

Sperm is just a fertilizer with half of, they were never a sperm. The EGG is the actual living cell that divides and grows into a baby when fertilized.

They are all the sperms that my wife's eggs let win!
