RObert,

I looked that up a while back for another thread....seems that there are around 117 male births for every 100 female births in China.

Poirot, there are 105 male births for every female birth in Australia. Do you think Australians are routinely killing female babies?

Jumping to conclusions is never wise...

105 male births for every 100 female births is the norm in most countries, and appears natural.

There are more males above the 105 being born in some provinces in China, but not all.

Many Asian countries also carry out abortion as a form of contraception, and the killing of unborn baby girls through abortion could be considered a form of population control, although I am personally not in favour of it.

Feminists have wanted abortion, and so they have it.

If there is roughly a 10 percent difference between what is normal and what occurs in China in terms of the ratio between male and female births, and if the Chinese diaspora conform to the normal, then I think you can infer that something is going on that is not to do with physiology.

'there are 105 male births for every female birth in Australia.'

Really?

105 to 1?
