So it's OK to abort if you don't like the gender as long as you tell everyone you just aren't ready to be a mother or some other such drivel.

Makes sense (to you. Maybe).

I understand the surface level of your position. However, you still haven't explained the moral or philosophical reasons behind it. Why is sex-selection reprehensible and or repugnant, but abortion for convenience sake acceptable?

Additionally, would it matter to you if gender selection was predominately female, instead of male?
