In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The only sure-fire way to have a baby boy is to use in-vitro fertilization and gender selection. However, you may not want to rely on these procedures to have a baby boy. Before you try getting pregnant, talk to your doctor about your wishes. They may check your health to ensure you are healthy enough to get pregnant. They may also have some non-surgical tips on conceiving a baby boy. Recognize that many old wives tales or other suggestions for having a baby boy have no medical evidence to support them. Women only carry female X- chromosomes. Men have both one female X- and one male Y-chromosome. This means that the male partner determines the sex of a baby. A male Y-chromosome sperm may swim faster than the female X-chromosome, but the X-chromosomes have more endurance. Keeping track of your ovulation cycle with a calendar or app can help you have sex closest to when your body releases the egg. This might increase the likelihood of having a boy because the Y-chromosome sperm may not tire out before reaching the egg Consider avoiding sex the week before you ovulate to increase your significant other's sperm count. Have sex on the day you ovulate, if possible. Although not proven, it may increase your chances of conceiving a boy. Having sex in positions that deeply penetrate the woman could increase the chance of having a baby boy. This may give the male Y-chromosomes a head start on reaching the egg because they can swim faster than female X-chromosome sperm, though there is no evidence to prove this. Try any of the following are deep penetration positions: Standing up Straddling (woman on top) Doggy style, or from behind Missionary with the woman's legs pulled toward her chest. Women's orgasms may give Y-chromosome sperm another head start. This is because orgasms move the sperm closer to the cervix. A female orgasm may also create a more alkaline environment in the vagina, which can also increase the chances of the male Y-chromosome sperm reaching the egg first. Hinder the man's orgasm if possible. Be aware that there is no medical evidence to prove this increases your chances of having a baby boy. Consider manual or oral stimulation before penetration. This may help a woman orgasm more quickly than the man.
Summary: Consult your doctor. Time your ovulation. Do deep penetrative position. Let the woman orgasm first.

We often do things to ourselves that we would never dream of doing to someone we care about. For instance, when's the last time you called a friend ugly, told them they weren't good enough, or discouraged them from following their dreams? Whatever you believe to be respect, apply it to yourself. Don't insult or harm yourself, no matter how bad you feel. This kind of treatment is only bound to make you feel worse. Here are some other ways to treat yourself with basic respect: Don't steal from yourself, such as recklessly putting everything on credit; you're essentially taking money from your future self, because you'll have to pay up eventually. Be honest with yourself instead of being in denial about what you really want. Think for yourself by developing your own sources of knowledge and doing research, instead of just following the opinions of others. When you make an effort to keep your body in good working order, you'll not only feel better physically, but you'll also feel a sense of pride. Respecting your body also means not insulting it for what it is, naturally. Make an effort to get fit and stay healthy, but don't trash yourself over the things you can't control, like your proportions. Focus on the things you can change and improve, and do it because it feels good, not because you think you're not "good enough" the way you are. This doesn't mean that going to the gym and looking amazing will automatically lead you to have high self-respect. But it does mean that if you don't put any time or care into your appearance, that you'll start to lose respect for who you are. Respecting yourself does not mean thinking that you are perfect and that there is absolutely nothing that you need to work on and improve. It means being able to accept the things that you cannot change about yourself, while working to address the things that you need to work on. Take some time to really think about yourself and to consider the areas you'd like to work on the most; maybe you would like to improve your listening skills, or you would love to handle life's daily little stresses a lot better, or you would like to have a more balanced approach when making the people around you happy without sacrificing your own needs. Make a plan to make some headway in these departments, and soon, you'll be on your way to having more respect for yourself. Make a list of areas you'd like to improve. Take note when you make improvements, however small. It's important to write down your small and big victories. Of course, changing behaviors and the thoughts and feelings associated with those behaviors takes more than a day or two; it takes a big commitment and persistence. But taking the first steps to become a person that you respect more will make you feel more confident about who you are. Improving yourself means taking the steps to try new things and to open your mind to new possibilities. Improving yourself can mean taking a yoga class, volunteering, spending more time learning lessons from the elders you care about, learning to see multiple perspectives about a situation, reading the news, and striving to learn new things.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Carefully rinse the strawberries in a colander to wash away any debris. Then, cut them to prepare them for the mascarpone cream. There are 2 ways you can cut them: Perpendicular cuts: Use a paring knife to trim off the stem end to create a flat surface, and then place the stem end facing down on a cutting board. Next, cut the berry in half starting from the top, slicing down towards the cutting board but not all the way through the berry. Then, make another perpendicular slice using the same technique. Fan out the berry so it resembles a blooming flower. Upright, core removed: Alternatively, slice off the tip of the non-stem end so the berry can stand upright. Then, slice off the leafy stem and remove the core, so the inside of the berry is somewhat hollowed-out. Stand the berries upright. Finally, add a garnish of your choice if you'd like. Small sprigs of mint can add a fresh taste, or toasted almonds can bring a crunchy contrast to the sweetness of the cream.

SUMMARY:
Wash and cut 16 strawberries. Garnish with mint sprigs or toasted almonds.
