Comparison with simulation shows the odd-parity preference of WMAP data (2<= l <=22) is anomalous at 4-in-1000 level. We have investigated its origins, and ruled out some of non-cosmological origins such as asymmetric beams, noise and cut-sky effect. We also find primordial origin requires |Re[\\Phi(\\mathbf k)]|\\ll|Im[\\Phi(\\mathbf k)]| for k\\lesssim 22/\\eta_0, where \\eta_0 is the present conformal time. Multipoles associated with the odd-parity preference happen to coincide with some of other CMB anomalies.
