Found this interesting:

Women who eat more calories around the time of conception are more likely to have sons, according to a study.

Researchers said it is the first evidence that a child's sex is linked to the mother's diet.

I thought the male's sperm determined the sex?

Yeah, sperm does, but there are these little wives tales, which were completely true for my wife, with our sons she ate a diet of salt salt and more salt, with our daughter it was everything sweet, apparently what you crave can help you figure out what you're having, but I'm not sure if the calorie thing is along the same lines.
