It's not just in India, but China and other Asian cultures, some African cultures, etc. It has been the root of much of the abuses and atroctities against women for millenia. Sad but true, but perhaps over time, and with the spread of "civilization," it will change.

It's really sad to read about this kind of injustice to unborn children, whether they be female or male. The sad part is that this type of thinking has been fueled by the culture in those areas of the world, and also because of the large number of impoverished people who live there. They are not cruel people, but they realize that a male child, in the long run, is cheaper to raise and also more apt to bring wealth and status to the family. It will be very difficult to turn things around unless consensus thinking changes in those countries.

I agree with you Malexander, it is very sad. I have been to India, lived in a village there and have an Indian mother. I know the culture very well. The reason why women are valued less is partly socio-economic. These people are so poor they simply cannot afford to feed too many mouths. India would have the largest orphan population in the world.

Boys are regarded as bread winners, despite the fact that women still do a lot of the laborious work in some rural areas. In my opinion India is still a bit backwards when it comes to women's rights in poor areas. I think a lot of this has to do with overpopulation and socio-economic issues because women in the wealthy upper classes are treated as equal.

However, change is certainly on the way as India develops.

This is what it has come to in India, they have to pay them in order to stop them from killing their own.

The sad truth is, that the Western World (Europe and the United States) is not much better. We just do not care which sex we choose to kill. In most cases we will just do it because it is a little inconvenient to have a baby right now. There is no difference in killing a baby because it happens to be female (an inconvenience in their culture) and killing a baby because one cannot afford it, it does not fit my plan, I don't want a baby right now (all inconveniences)

I ask: How are we any different here in the west, compared to India or China? Is it because we do not choose which Sex to kill?

Civilization will not change these countries. It will just change them from aborting just girls, to aborting any baby that they find inconvenient. There needs to be a fundamental change in values in all countries for us to stop choosing to kill because we think that which is growing inside of women is just an inconvenience.

YES, its mainly under developed countries like India. As I am an Indian.. I can observe this in my near environment. This is because of many reasons ... Parents who have a girl, think to spend more on her life especial for her marriage. Its because of poverty and illiteracy... But it should be eradicable!
