No. Most people --- boys and girls alike --- are born with 24 ribs. However, some people (both sexes) are born with more or less than the standard 24. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeper investigation also reveals that "rib" is a questionable translation of the Hebrew phrase used in Genesis to describe what was taken from Adam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's this mystery which makes me laugh because if they're joking, then it's a good joke and we're sharing in the laugh, but if they're serious you laugh because it's better than crying or getting worked up over nonsense.
