For the past few days, I was helping my younger sister to take good care of her newborn baby boy. I had noticed that it sucks milk often. I was quite amazed looking at him and whine aloud if breastmilk is not enough. According to my sister, baby needs to be feed every after 2 hours. Thus, I wondered if it applies to both genders. Since I have a little niece, I haven't seen her acted this way during here babyhood days.
"Does baby boy suck milk that often?"
"Does baby boy cry much?"

I fed my babies myself for a while and they do tend to cry more at the start and then as they settle down it all calms down as well.
Congrats to your Sister and her newborn Son.
My boys cried a lot one more than the other.

Its part of his getting attention.
In Spain old saying "he who does not cry, does not get fed".

@lovinangelsinstead21 I do think that this quote makes sense.

Young babies need to suck around every two hours. You see all they have is the mum's milk to drink. Later on they get weened and so they eat baby like food. A baby boy seems to suck a lot and some baby girls as well. I think back in a happy way when my two children were babies back in 2007 and 2009

@Mavic123456 I respect your opinion. Since I only experienced having a little niece, she is not that a whiner during her infant days. This new baby nephew is quite the opposite though. Perhaps it varies from one baby to another, either boys or girls.

I don't know if there's such a difference between genders on their milk consumption.

Nope. It depends on the baby, not on the gender.
I do have a girl and a boy and they behaved rather similar during their first years.

I think every baby would like to cry
and I think every baby also likes to drink milk

i think younger baby will tend to suck milk often due to milk is the only source of food for them.
But the frequency might be individual basis and not based on gender.
If there are allergic reaction after the baby consumed mother's milk then they have too drink commercial milk formula.
I am not married yet so but this answer should sound logic right.
