"We think it is inescapable that the mother's body is remembering how many sons she has carried before, and somehow she is then increasing the amount of androgen that each subsequent son sees before birth. So the fascinating questions are: where is the memory being stored in the mother's body and what is she doing to change amount of androgen that each subsequent son sees."
OK, that is the scariest statement I have ever read... the implication is that a mother produces an first son and her body sets about making sure the first son is the alpha male .... which gives creedance to the first born male inheritance of old.
