does your country practice a culture preference of boys?

Mine does...once they get to know that its a female baby growing in the womb, they abort it, they go to the extent of killing the female babies once they are born especially in the villages (since now-a-days, none of them are allowed to know through a scan which fetus they have, either male or female)and also some husbands divorce their wives for giving birth to a female child, not willing to accept the fact that it depends on their chromosome, whether its an X or a Y that contributes to the gender of the child

thats the most digusting thing ive ever heard. Every child should be treated equally. I hate aborotion anyway but to have a child aborted for being a girl is digusting. And to go through that and then have your husband leave you...argh it makes me so angry that things that this still go on in the world today
