Gak!

Add this to the list- honor killing, dowry killings, killing babies just because they are girls....ugh ugh

Screw Newspeak! (commonly referred to as "political correctness") If your culture condones the killing of any gender (and I'm looking at you too, China!), your "culture" is FÜCKED UP! :mad:

What a relief that a person in power is working to change this.

Honestly don't they know they can make a killing selling their daughters to brothels before they reach puberty.

I wonder which would have a better chance of success:

Remove the stain of gender killing by discouraging people from getting an abortion simply because it is a girl.

Remove the stain of gender killing by encouraging people to abort more male fetuses.

I'm glad the PM is taking a stand on this, but, good luck in changing the culture. that will take time.

While he's at it, can Singh do something about American obesity? ;)

I'd rather he take on clitoral-circumcision in Africa. I frankly don't care if they abort every other fetus in India - - they are fetusus (fetusi?), not humans.

I don't agree with the cultural criteria for abortion, but there are real atrocities being committed against women world-wide because of gender. I really can't get worked up about fetal termination. I'm much more concerned about actual people.


I don't think there are a whole lot of Christians in India ... so perhaps they are operating under that absurd notion that you're not alive until you're born.


Silly Indians. Tricks are for kids.
