Old Wives Tales

The collection of old wives tales below are based on my personal experience that I have tested over the years. However, I do not guarantee that they will or will not work for everybody.

Eating tidbits

If a man loves eating tidbits he will only have daughters and no sons Reason

I do not know

True or False?

Answer: True

I heard this tale over the Chinese New Year holidays. Apparently, if a man loves eating tidbits he will have daughters only and those who dislike tidbits will have sons only. So far, all the couples that I have asked have confirmed this tale. The men who are not partial either way have had both daughters and sons.

I would appreciate your input on this tale. Please ask your family members and friends and enter your findings below. Thank you so much for your help.
