問題詳情

(B.) While having a scan, a pregnant woman in India is not allowed to learn the gender of her unborn child. But she might receive a bill in a file colored blue or pink -- and the meaningis clear. The method of skirting around the law is one of many reasons why 85 million women are described as "missing" from the populations of India and China, where the abortion offemale fetuses, infant killings and the death of girls through neglect are all too common. The medical experts point out that the natural gender ratio should be 103-107 males born forevery 100 females. But in 2005 in China there were 119 boys for every 100 girls. Also a study by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences estimated that more than 24 million men ofmarrying age could find themselves without spouses in 2020. Under China's 1979 one-child policy, aimed at controlling the world's largest population, parents who live in cities areallowed one child, while some rural families can have two. Therefore, although China has banned the sex-selective abortion, the pressure to produce a male child still pushes parents toturn to ultrasound scans for help.
