Do men and women have the same number of genes?

Question

As far as I know, humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, each one which contains a particular amount of genes. But in the "last" pair, men have a XY pair chromosome, and women have a XX pair chromosome. Does the missing "leg" of the XY pair make men to have fewer genes than women, and if so, how many genes do each sex have?

Answer 1

The X chromosome represents about 800 protein-coding genes compared to the Y chromosome containing about 70 genes, out of 20,000–25,000 total genes in the human genome.

So, if you have an X and an X, then you have more genes than you do if you have an X and a Y.

Answer 2

It would be highly unlikely that an x and a Y chromosome would have the same number of genes.

From the Internet:

The X chromosome represents about 800 protein-coding genes compared to the Y chromosome containing about 70 genes, out of 20,000–25,000 total genes in the human genome.
