This is the second annoying probability question I've seen today actually. I won't say what the other one is though because this thread is just for this one. The other one I saw, yeah, I agreed with its strange answer. That was actually mathmatical.

But this is just stupid. No other word for it. Unless I'm seriously misunderstanding...
"A woman has two kids. One is a boy. What are the odds the other is a boy?"
Does other not mean the one that isn't being refferred to in "One is a boy"?

Or are you lot on about something different?
