In the future, my longer posts will be posted to my blog, and the Substack will contain my shorter essays. I’m going to be moving the shorter pieces from my blog over to the Substack from time to time, but don’t worry - they will all be updated and improved as I do!
You may have read that eating certain foods, taking certain supplements, or having intercourse in a special position or at a certain time of the month, will guarantee you a baby of a particular gender. According to some, if you do all the right things just perfectly, you will be all but promised a particular gender. And then if your sway doesn’t work out, then you’re left feeling guilty for that Ding Dong you ate 3 months before you ever got pregnant and angry with your husband because he didn’t want to ice his testicles!!
But that’s NOT what Natural Gender Selection is fundamentally all about. Swaying just isn’t as simple as following a recipe, where if you add a pinch of this and a pinch of that, and follow the instructions to the letter, 9 months later a baby of your desired gender (DG) will pop out of the oven. Your baby’s sex has very little to do with what you ate or didn’t eat on any one day or even every day, or any one sway tactic you did or didn’t do.
Instead, the outcome of your sway has everything to do with what is happening inside of your body and to a lesser extent, your husband’s (DH, dear husband) body. That’s why some people have ‘perfect’ sways but conceive opposites, while others who have never even heard the word ‘swaying’ (other than the wind through the trees) conceive children of both sexes without even trying. Most of what is actually swaying is not visible, or even controllable.
Of all the females that have ever been born on this earth, very few of their parents were ingesting large quantities of Crystal Light, and of all the males, practically all were conceived without eating bunch after bunch of bananas. You don’t have to do any particular sway tactic or eat any one food to make yourself have a child of a particular gender.
Let me say it again for the people in the back: YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO ANY ONE SWAY TACTIC OR EAT ANY ONE FOOD TO MAKE YOURSELF HAVE A CHILD OF A PARTICULAR GENDER. I promise.
You can do absolutely nothing any differently than you have every other day of your life, and still conceive a child of your DG - even if you’ve had 3-4-5-6 or even more of the other gender already. Because internal body chemistry naturally changes from week to month to year, it may very well be that all you need to do to get your DG is simply get pregnant again.
If that’s the case then why even bother attempting to change our external environment in the hopes of altering our internal environment? Why not just try to conceive (TTC) naturally, and hope for the best?
We could, actually. Any of us willing to “Duggar-it-out” and have an unlimited number of children, would eventually have an opposite, or even several. But for the rest of us, who prefer smaller families for whatever reason, we want to try to assist Mother Nature in whatever way we can so we get our DG sooner, not later.
Natural Gender Selection works in two ways. By far the most important way, is by actually "convincing" your body to conceive a child of a particular gender by changing certain cues in your environment - indirectly. The other, less important but more commonly advertised by sway “gurus” online, is by directly mimicking and manipulating the physical processes through which your body conceives a child of a particular gender. With every aspect of swaying, we’re working towards accomplishing one or both of those goals. We have to keep them both in mind.
In other words, if as evidence suggests, low sperm count sways pink, it doesn’t matter if a man is an overweight smoking deep sea diver who wears tighty whities and sits in a hot tub all day drinking aspartame-laced cranberry juice. If his sperm count remains high despite all that, he’s still going to father more sons than daughters. He did everything right in terms of swaying, but it wasn't enough to "convince" his body to change its natural setting, nor was it enough to override it.
To sum up, Natural Gender Selection is not a matter of, do X, Y, and Z and then you WILL get a guaranteed result. If it were, it would be called ‘guaranteeing' and not 'swaying'. You can do everything right and your body still may believe it’s more desirable for you to have an opposite due to things outside your control. You can do everything wrong and your body may still believe it’s better for you to have your DG even after several of the other gender.
Some swaying sites unfortunately refuse to acknowledge that Natural Gender Selection is anything other than 100%. They want everyone to believe that they offer a guarantee via swaying when that simply isn’t the case. NO ONE can guarantee success with Natural Gender Selection, not even me. All we can do is offer better chances. Thus, when someone on a phony-guarantee-site gets a sway opposite, the members of that site actually blame the person who got the opposite, even going so far as to pick apart the unfortunate person’s sway looking for any reason, even small and clearly meaningless details that could not possibly have mattered, to pick on.
The approach I am offering you is different - No-Fault Swaying. No-Fault Swaying means that every swayer does the best we can with what they personally feel comfortable with doing. No pressure - though I will explain to you honestly what works and what doesn’t, after that it is your sway, your way. If something isn’t right for you, that is ok. If things don’t work out, I will never second-guess you, nor will I blame you.
I urge you not to obsess over the tiniest detail before, during or after your sway. The outcome of a sway never comes down to any one thing, and the smaller that thing is, the less likely it is to have made any difference.
Although my goal is, and always will be, to come up with the very best sway techniques, even the very best sway is never going to be a guarantee. Swaying isn't worth ruining your life, health, sanity, or marriage over. We just cannot control every aspect of our bodies. And that is NOT your fault!
