Depends.

In some places, like India, sons are generally held to be more important than daughters.

The sons are expected to take care of the parents as they get old, so sheer self-preservation makes people put more value on sons. With not much of a pension plan going, old age survival has to be managed in the family.

When a daughter marries, she becomes a part of her husband's family, so she can't do much for her parents anymore.

China also has a preference for sons, but not as hard as in India. But sons are the ones that carry the family name further(women give theirs up when they marry) which makes them more important. The men are also traditionally seen as the ones who work and earn money, which also boosts their importance.

In countries where men/women are more equal, sons/daughters also gets valued more equally.
