A lot of sperm are needed to increase the chances of finding the egg. Both egg and sperm are tiny and, compared to their size, the sperm must cover a vast distance.

Why does the male produce so many sperm?

Nature wants you to reproduce, the vagina is a somewhat hostile place for sperm trying to survive, and they have a distance to travel, if only one sperm at a time was released from ejaculation then the chances of getting pregnant would be virtually nil and the human race would die out. Also sperm die after a time even in the scrotum so they are continually replaced.

Does anyone know of any fun tips to help conceive a girl?

"Male" sperm can live up to 3 days, "female" sperm live longer, up to 5 days. At ovulation, your egg is released and takes about 12-24 hours to get to the fallopian tubes, where the sperm is waiting for it and it gets fertilized. So to give the male sperm enough time to die off but not so much time that the female sperm dies too, you need to stop having sex 4 days before the date of ovulation. Then the only sperm still alive in there are female sperm. But be sure to have lots of sex up to that 4-day cutoff, so there's plenty of healthy sperm.
