Why did Kunti have five sons and no daughters

Why did Kunti have five sons and no daughters? Did she have a preference for having daughters as well? In the Mahabharata, Kunti the mother of the Pandavas, had five sons yudhishthira, Bhima ,Arjuna ,nakula and sahadeva but no daughters. This watch not due to any personal preference or gender bias but rather a consequence of the divine circumstances surrounding her life. According to the story, Kunti was granted a boon by the sage durvasa , which allowed her to invoke any God and have a child by him. She accidently invoke Surya ,the sun God, and had Karna, her firstborn. Later, she invoked other gods, Yama ( Dharma) Yudhishthir, Yavu ( wind) Bhima, Indra ( rain) Arjun, and madri pandu’s second wife, used the same mantra with kuntis guidance, to invoke the Ashwini twins, and thus gave birth to the twin brother Nakun and Sahadeva. Saga Durvasa’s boon granted Kunti the ability to have a son from each god , and since the god's were male, it's possible that only sons could be born through this divine intervention. The Hindu mythology, the god's are often depicted as male, and their energies and attributes are associated with masculine qualities, while goddesses and feminine energies are also revered , the god's in the context were male, which might have influenced the gender of kunti’s children. In this conclusion, there is no indication in the Mahabharata that Kunti had a preference for having only sons or that she deliberately chose not to have daughters. The circumstances of her life and the divine interventions led to her having five sons. Infact , in Hindu mythology, it is considered a blessing to have both sons and daughters, as they are seen as a source of joy and strength for the family. Kunti's situation was an extraordinary one, shaped by her unique circumstances and the will of the god's. Thank you Jay shree Krishna
