Is that true that for any events $A, B, C$, the following holds?

$$P(A|B\cap C)\leq P(A|B)$$

I think the answer is no. Intuitively, adding more condition may cause the probability increase. Is that right?

You are right.

Consider the events:

$A $: today it will rain;

$B $: I am a boy;

$C $: the sky is full of gray clouds.

That inequality does not seem right now.
