Armenian population, children, etc...

[HyeJinx1984]

...we are not 7.5 million we are less then 4.5 million... in armenia today there are 2 million people and i estimate that there are another 2 mill scattered all over the place...

I gotta disagree with you though, I think the 7.5 number is relatively accurate. There's no way it's JUST 4 million.

ahh yes the infamous population level of Armenians argument... yes it is never ending...

ok so logically thinking... 2 mil in armenia
1 mil in the USA, Europe/Russia, Australia each = 3 mil and that leaves africa, antartctica and the northpole and i dont think there are Armenians in the north pole or antarctica so that leaves africa and i dont suspect that there are more then 500k in all of africa, they are mostly all concentrated in Egypt...

2+3.5 = 5.5 so MAX is 5.5mill i mean the MAX MAX MAX... that is really stretching it...

but then again there are those who argu that there are 11 million and i just laugh laugh and laugh...

I've heard the following.
Armenia 2.5 mil
Russia (ex USSR) 1 mil +
USA 1 mil
Europe 700,000
Middle East 500,000
South American/Australia/Asian coutnries 100,000
The only thing missing is Canada which I'm not sure maybe Baron knows. That's a running total without Canada of around 5.8 million, still way less then the 7 everyone says.

That is more then I was was told there was. So it puts a smile to my face. a bigggg smile .....Now what we need to do is make more babies. I'm serious.

goey,

you are so cute, and i am girl and i dont swing that way... but seriously you are...

Armenias giving birth is one of the hardest things to do... ask your mama... and any other Armenian women who have kids... they will tell you that it seems like its the most devistating thing...

but on the other hand i have an uncle who has 11 kids... they are a BIG family... they own a business, and the kids operate it... the oldest one is 24 or 25 and the other come 1 year behind each year... he is the leader of the pack... oh and only 2 of them are girls, so its mostly boys...

i am going to contribute 2 max 3 to the culture...

[HyeJinx1984]

I say any given Armenian family should have as many kidfs as they can both mentally, emotionally and financially afford. I'm planng on having six myself

I heard that Canada has about 40,000 Armenians. But that is still an optimisitc figure in my opinion, so you can take it as the maximum.

[nunechka]

hyejinx, may your wife have wide hips and be loving (wide hips because that allows for and easier birth, the baby just slides right out)

LOL!!!

wow! you will be the brady bunch, the 3 girls and 3 boys...

very good intentions though... i truly admire it...

[angelik22]

wait wait wait its not quantity, its quality... make sure u raise ur kids right.... or theyll end up being like that porn star chick, we dont want any more of those in the armenian culture do we?

[dstyle]

Culture or community. Wow so were not even 6 million. D@mn tzoolveeling. About kids, it is a big problem for us, as we have each two or three kids, turks ussually have five or six, they are already about 10 times our population it seems, so that difference might escalate.
