There is a minor problem with applying statistical readings from a large general population (the 50/50 rule for males and females born) to a closed population such as exists in this case ... the men might be more prone to sire females than males thus the number of males may be low because the men are more prone to ire females ... 'the sex of the child is more a fathering trait than a mothering trait, gamete-wise.'

Sadly, the Lawrence v Texas case decided for the homosexual degenerates does have implications regarding polygamy, and as we see polygamy in this case has its origins in Mormonism. So, the issue is indirectly related to religion though the initial protection of these ranch children is not a religious issue ... future dealings with the issues of polygamy and human trafficking will be tied to religious 'doctrines'. One need only look at the Muzzie polygamy and abuse to see there is a wreck up ahead if this issue of polygamy and enslavement is to be properly dealt with.

It's true that the father's chromosomes determine the sex of the offspring.

But surely you're not prepared to argue that the FLDS men are XXXXY genetic oddities (extra X chromosomes sufficient to explain the skewed ratio of males to females).

Normal men are XY, meaning a roughly 50/50 ratio of offspring. Yes, male sperm are slightly less road-worthy compared to females, but only a percent or so.

Most male genetic oddities are XYY (extra Y chromosome) -- that argues for more male offspring, not less.

In any case, nothing other than murder or institutionalized murder or ostracism can account for the incredibly skewed ratio of males to females seen in the FLDS.

The simplest explanation is most often the correct one. The old men got rid of the competition for the young girls. Are we surprised?

I actually did think about that—— but even on the lowest end, ~~100 males are missing....on the average birth rate stat, 300 are missing.

Either way, someone’s not there who should be.

Thats what happens when you have a wind-up sub.
