How Accurate Is The Chinese Gender Predictor Calendar?

The chinese gender predictor test has no scientific backing. It could have a 50-50 chance of being right -- it means it is no more accurate than flipping a coin (1).

Therefore, some women might find it accurate, while some others might get it wrong purely based on chance. Though some researchers claim it to be more than 90% accurate, it is highly contested as there is no scientific proof. This gender calculator can be used just for fun. It is not a sure way of confirming the gender of your baby nor is it a replacement to scientific methods such as an ultrasound.

History Of The Chinese Gender Chart

There are several theories about the Chinese gender predictor chart. It is believed to have a 700- year old history and is based on the I Ching (or the Book of Changes) and relies on the Yin and Yang, the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams. It was created for the imperial family of the Qing dynasty, who used the chart to conceive sons who were favored for work, making money and for carrying forward the family lineage.

It was kept in the Qing palace by dedicated eunuchs and was not for display or public use. During the Boxers Rebellion, at the end of the Qing dynasty, the chart was one among the looted exotic treasures. It was later brought to England, translated and treasured by the then King.

Later the chart was taken to Austria by a professor from where a Chinese scholar studied it in detail and brought it back to the homeland (2).

The original copy of the chart, which is in the Institute of Science in Beijing, is now gaining attention from the western and eastern world (3).
