A related phenomenon is in IVF for sex selection. I remember reading that Americans prefer girls to a great degree except for those of Indians/Chinese origin who prefer boys. Both my wife and I have the common reflexive distaste for being too predictable (we're an Indian/Taiwanese couple) but for us the choice was made since pre-implantation genetic testing revealed that our only healthy embryos (until gene therapies currently in trial reach fruition) will be girls.
I do confess that, if we were fortunate enough to have three children, I would prefer at least one of them be of the other sex but the preference is exceedingly mild and I'd rather have all the children we can have than have ones of any specific gender.
