> This has little to do with abortion and more to do with a perverse sexism. Women always have been treated very poorly in Chinese culture, and apparently, things are not improving.

It's more complicated than that, but basically the Asian culture is still very patriarchal. Times are changing and women are becoming more liberated from those traditions, but those traditions sure die hard.


Are there laws in China and SK that encourage families to have boys, or is it simply a cultural thing?
