Although firstborns are different genders, there are qualities that surpass the difference due to the child's environment. Studies showed an effect on both personality and IQ of a child when comparing the order of birth.

[9] Bogaert's hypothesis argues that "the target of the immune response may be male specific molecules on the surface of male fetal brain cells (e.g., including ...
A 2015 study of around 377,000 students from the University of Illinois found no meaningful correlation being birth order and personality or intelligence scores. [11] A 2020 study from the University of Houston found no evidence to suggest birth order has any effect on career choice or career type. [12] [13]

The fraternal birth order effect has been described by one of its proponents as "the most consistent biodemographic correlate of sexual orientation in men". [5] In 1958, it was reported that homosexual men tend to have a greater number of older siblings (i.e., a 'later/higher birth order') than comparable heterosexual men and in 1962, these findings were published in detail.
