For those who enjoy irony....

So in some male-dominated cultures if the woman concieves no boys then the man can take a 2nd wife. In some, the woman's failure to produce sons is room for divorce. In India, relatives on the father's side will even go so far as to light the bride on fire! These Bride-Burnings are apparently common in India.

But, in reality, the man is the one who determines the sex of the child, not the woman.
