Like I've said, you better live in the country to believe what you think it supposes to be. For me, in fact i don't see the lack of female in China.

Interesting Mq, we have that problem in Canada... Many South Asians (apparently that is the new politically correct term encompassing Pakistanis, Indians and Tamils...which is kinda funny because the first two groups themselves contain a good grouping of ethnicity) were using ultrasound tests to determine the sex before birth... and then aborting when the odds looked bad that the child was male.. Since it's Canada though I guess that's OK :O) You know your argument is a slippery slope ... foeticide .. In Canada it's just called abortion.. and is legal at any time so foeticide cannot be policed. Chinese women cannot have the choice you mean.. (I know that is not a fair question and it is deliberately so to illustrate, what was your term ? a bias :O) BTW I saw lots and lots of women and girls in China both trips... with a few particularly dazzling beauties on the YangTze cruise boat. Th ratio according to Wiki Sex distribution: male 51.53%; female 48.47% (2007)... Now this is interesting... if you are interested a real imbalance... but there is no China poking to be done... in fact if you want a wife... go to Money Rock and visit Jay :O) even better Russia... WOW!.. socyberty.com There are apparently more men than women in many places .... including the world in general..(of course that's partly China's fault).. Yowsers... look @ UAE.. then again that's kinda like Horton hears a Who... the entire population being the size of a small Chinese city.. Also this in the news today... The South Asians are supplanting the Chinese in Canada... We are New Zealand North :O) 680news.com Should current immigration trends continue, Statistics Canada predicts one in five Canadians will be a visible minority by 2017, when the country turns 150 years old.
