smwiggle · August 2012

I was told a girl for my last pregnancy and this one. I had a boy and this one is also a boy.

patientnwaiting · August 2012

Mine was right. It told me boy, I'm having a boy.

rrcraz7 · August 2012

It was wrong once & right once for me.

featherust · August 2012

It was right both times for me.

Mine said girl and it's a boy!

marlee323 · August 2012

Meagan0528 · August 2012

Mine said girl but he's all boy!

ExcitedAunt2b · August 2012

Mine was right...just can't say yet because my sister reads these boards and we haven't told anyone yet.

snmcfarlin · August 2012

I used the one on the Bump, and it said boy (which we are having!). And then I checked it with the one from Babycenter because it claimed to calculate your Chinese age, and it said boy also! It's also been correct for two friends! Have fun!

AshleyLecker · August 2012

Mine was correct! It said a boy and we expecting a little boy in November!

wallacek07 · August 2012

Mine was correct! Said boy, having a boy!

CMor1 · August 2012

The bump gender chart says girl for me, but other online charts that go by Lunar age all say boy. I guess one of the versions of the CGC will be right for me....I find out the sex in a couple of weeks.

jkg0527 · August 2012

The Bump one said boy, and another one on a different site said girl. We're having a little girl!

tamaratoday · August 2012

it was right for my first two pregnancies, wrong for this one.

newtonk · August 2012

Right with DH wrong with this one.

ObLaDi · August 2012

MandJS:
For S, it said girl, and so far, she seems to identify as a girl. I'll let you know in a few years when kiddo #2's personality comes out if the gender predictor was right or not this time around.
Oh wait - you wanted to know sex? Shrug. Still don't know. I'm team green.

Ha!

The bump one was right for me.

rachael_c26 · August 2012

It was wrong for us.

bunnymay · August 2012

It was right on all on the various versions I tried. All predicted a girl!

Angelzkisses · August 2012

It's been wrong both times! First time it said boy, I had a girl. This time it said girl, and we're having a boy.

Kadyra · August 2012

It was right for DS1 and DS2.

MonicaClaire13 · August 2012

I haven't been able to see if it's right for me, but I imputed my mom's info for my siblings and I, and it was wrong every time. It said my sister and I were boys and my brother was a girl. so, idk!

milesc · August 2012

Last time: Not sure which month I conceived in, so I have no idea

This time: Yes. It was right

BLPL101 · August 2012

It predicted a boy and we are having a baby girl!!

amazing22324 · August 2012

Mine said girl on all of them and I'm having a boy. All the Old Wive's tales were wrong too. I no longer will put stock into anything like that, the baby is what the baby is! haha

LadyNikon · August 2012

Peasout · August 2012

CatnipTrinket · August 2012

The Chinese Gender Prediction Chart was right only on THIS website. It said I would have a boy. All other websites claimed I would have a girl.

Kingston54 · August 2012

It was wrong for pregnancy #1. We aren't finding out this time so we have a while to wait and see...

MandJS, you gotta the OP a break on this one. The name of the chart is the Chinese Gender Chart, she didn't name it.
She may not have named it, but she still could have clarified what she meant. And I DID answer her question. S is currently showing all the signs of being female, and until that changes, the Chinese Gender chart was correct for me.

So when she said "Chinese Gender Chart" she needed to clarify what she meant? I think we all know what it means. In normal (non academic) English we use the word gender to refer to both sex and the social roles. If you have adapted one usage as your darling and decided that you want that to be the only meaning for the word gender, you are going to have to do a bit more than post endlessly on a pregnancy forum.

This forum is meant to facilitate communication amongst people who are going through an extremely wonderful and stressful period of their lives. You should focus your energies on trying to honestly help people rather than take every opportunity to be a pedantic bully. Just take it easy and be reasonable...

I was told a girl and got a boy lol so i wouldn't count on it.

This. And ACTUALLY honey, in the English language gender and sex are two different words. Read a book. Take a college class.

'Sex' is the anatomy you're born with.

'Gender' is the way you behave and identify with people. Do you behave and identify as a boy or girl, by social standards?

From Merriam-Webster.com:

Definition of GENDER

1

: sex 1

2

: the behavioral, cultural, or psychological traits typically associated with one sex

I don't know where you went to school, but where I went petty insults are not the way you respond when you disagree with someone. And you might want to take your own advice and read a book - a children's book- that teaches children to be respectful and that insulting other people who disagree with you is no way to conduct yourself. Here we have grown women acting childishly telling other women how to be mothers. The hypocrisy is astounding.

You can use the word "gender" either way you want since there ARE MULTIPLE MEANINGS IN THE DICTIONARY. You don't have to push your personal crusade on people who really just want to get some helpful advice. This is not YOUR clubhouse where you make the rules.

You are entitled to your opinions and your beliefs but we are all entitled to a forum that is free from the obnoxious correcting related to this issue that goes on all over these boards. And just to clear it up, no, I'm not new here, I'm a long time lurker who felt the need to say something.

MommyLuvsMe1210 · August 2012

Oh believe me, that wasn't an insult. But you're entitled to whatever opinion you so choose.

There is a difference. The "definition" you quoted is outdated.
