Can a man be predisposed to have only (or mostly) children of a certain sex?

Asked by jmeeker98 (38points) May 6th, 2010

I’ve heard stories of men only being able to have children of a certain sex, King Henry VIII having only girls, for example. I was wondering if this is scientific/genetic, or if it’s just a “hit-and-miss” scenario. (I’m particularly interested because my husband’s family has nothing but boys in his generation & their children, and I’m really wanting a girl after having 2 boys! haha.)
