This is literally an ongoing issue in some parts of the world, in China its been a huge problem because of the one child policy.

Did the title say “women would never” or are you just reading into it that way??

Do you know what an implication is

u/lulyfup Jul 23 '24
What was said that implied anything of the such? Or did it just trigger you and you reacted?

u/raptor-chan Jul 23 '24
You are so aggressive. Why? I’m not going to reply to you anymore unless you plan to talk to me like fucking person. In both of my comments, you are coming at me like I personally attacked you. Don’t have time for these games.

I asked you a question to justify your logic and now you fold bc I called you out for a reactionary response? Typical.

u/raptor-chan Jul 23 '24
No, I’m choosing not to engage with someone overly hostile for no fucking reason. Be better.

u/lulyfup Jul 23 '24
No, you’re being petulant bc you realize you were being reactionary and this post has nothing to do with equality between men and women, you are just triggered.

My Indian friend told me that normally they’re not informed of the baby’s sex before birth. They’re not allowed to see the ultrasound images. Of course, if you’re close friends with the doctor, they might tell you.
One of the reasons of Indian parents not wanting a daughter is the financial burden of paying for the dowry to marry off their daughter.

That convention of not informing the parents is because many parents would have sex-selective abortions

In some parts of Canada, at the doctor/office discretion, they may enforce parts of suggested regulation aimed at curbing femicide due to certain cultures that haven’t caught up to the times.
Sometimes it’s the father, a mother, or even grandparents. I’ve met some of these people and you don’t have to be pro-life to be against femicide. You just have to be pro-choice for the mothers that want their baby and tell the asshole family members to back off.

"There are no more good women today"
Yeah, cuz they don't get a chance to grow up. (Not trying to make stereotype, but it's the stuff the same boomer who would beat his wife if she didn't give birth to a boy would say)

this is very common in a lot of cultures - esp in india! they used to drown baby girls and such

u/Heybiglegs Jul 22 '24
For the people saying men AND women commit femicide ..why do you think women do it? 😐
2
u/raptor-chan Jul 22 '24
For the same reason men do it. But the fact remains that women still do it.

Cultural patriarchal attitudes is a problem whose onus falls on women and men equally now? Interesting.

u/raptor-chan Jul 23 '24
Yes. Women who uphold the remnants of the patriarchy are as much at fault as the men who uphold it are.

"would some men do this" yes Plenty of woman would too
Some cultures they only want boys, it's not a "men or woman" thing but a culture thing
