What, like the joke? Heard your mom had three kids, one of each?
4 boys would qualify. 'Half are boys' doesn't exclude it, unless 'Half are girls' also applies.

| I get it. 3 boys, thre girls and 1 who was actually 2, but the twin of the opposite sex got absorbed in the womb. I saw something about that sort of occurence on The Learning Channel, I think it was called "I am My Own Twin." Doug Larson: “The cat could very well be man's best friend but would never stoop to admitting it." |

| If there were seven boys, it'd be true. _________________________________________________________

| ADO is right. And actually all you need are 4 boys to have 1/2 being boys. 1/2 of 7 is 3.5, so 4 boys, 5 boys, 6 boys or 7 boys means 1/2 are boys. |
