Why are more girls adopted as compared to boys?

Answer 1

There are many possibilities to this. In some areas of the world, many people consider a baby boy much more valueble then a baby girl, thus the baby girls get dropped of at orphanages and since there are more of them there will be more of them adopted. Another reason probablly is that all the bad statistics for boys are higher. Boys have higher crime rates, lower grades, more dropouts, more mentally ill, and boys tend to be more violent than girls. But the biggest reason is probablly just personal preference as many poeple consider little girls sweeter than little boys.
