It was during a competition for junior firefighters that somebody first noticed something unusual about the small Polish village of Miejsce Odrzanskie. Every single one of the uniformed children showing off their skills was a girl.

The reason is as simple as it is surprising. No boys have been born in Miejsce Odrzanskie for almost a decade, while the village’s women in the rural backwater of 300 souls have given birth to 12 girls.

The boy shortage is so acute that the mayor has offered a cash reward for the first family to produce a son. The world’s media have descended on the village in the fields of south-west Poland not far from the Czech border to investigate the phenomenom.

Eh, 12-0 isn't really that unfathomable. If it was something like 50-0 that would be really weird and worth looking into.

that's what I was going to say...the odds of any random place having 12 girls (or boys) in a row is 1 in 1024, so that sh**t happens all the time.

Yep. Out of all the tiny towns in the world, it was inevitable that this would end up happening somewhere at some point.

Clearly the town is sacrificing all the boys to the White Walkers. Isn't it obvious? Wink
