✦ Synopsis


Schizophrenic women reportedly have signi"cant excesses of daughters. People with convulsions or seizures reportedly have excesses of brothers. And photosensitive probands reportedly have excesses of sisters. Steroid hormones a!ect neurotransmission in the brain. So these curious sex ratios are construed here as support for my hypothesis that parental hormone levels around the time of conception partially control the sexes of the resulting o!spring.
