This should make me angry. It does, but mostly it just makes me very sad.

Such a tragedy, and it seems there's no way to stop it.

It's catching up with them. In China, there are many more males than there are females; so just *who* are the males going to marry? These people are denying themselves and their sons the chance to have a family.

According to the NPR segment I heard, some in India believe that the practise is going to catch up with people in the long run. The reason some Indian couples are doing the sex selection is that they can't afford a dowry for a daughter. But, if eventually women are scarce, it's the men who'll have to have the dowrys and impress the parents of the women. In other words, Karma.
