In India, 46 million girls have been aborted due to sex selection over the past 50 years.

Sex-selective abortion in India reveals a tragedy that exposes the hypocrisy of the feminism that claims so much to «defend» women.

Approximately 46 million girls have been aborted in India in the last 50 years solely because they were female; this terrible phenomenon is driven by cultural issues where families prefer male children.

In matrimonial customs, women are relegated to an inferior role, making the cost of raising a girl seen as an unwanted obligation. This leads to forced abortions, where mothers are pressured by husbands and in-laws.Here in India, violence begins in the womb; families see daughters as an economic burden due to traditions such as dowry and male inheritance.

This silent genocide not only ends millions of innocent lives; it is something that progressive feminists prefer to completely ignore. While they shout in defense of unlimited abortion in the West as an «absolute right,» they remain silent in the face of the extermination of unborn girls in countries where they really need to be defended.

One shocking case is that of a 40-year-old woman in Mumbai, forced to abort eight female fetuses in a year. Another, Laali, 25 years old, recounted her anguish after two forced abortions, blamed for giving birth to daughters and threatened with being replaced if she does not produce a boy.

These sad stories highlight how sex-selective abortion is not a «free choice,» but a normalized violence against women and girls.

Despite the legal prohibition in India since 1994 on prenatal tests to determine the sex of the fetus, the practice persists in illegal private clinics.

Demographic data confirm it: in 2016, the ratio was 89 girls for every 100 boys, and although it has improved to 928 girls per 1,000 boys in 2023 according to the vital statistics report, it is still below the natural level of 950.

In regions like Uttarkashi in 2019, no girls were born in three months, with 216 births only of boys, suspecting selective abortions.

This problem is not exclusive to India; also in China, population control policies have worsened the imbalance, leaving millions of men without partners.

However, international feminist organizations such as the United Nations Population Fund condemn sex-selective abortion in documents, but do not act to stop it, prioritizing unrestricted access to abortion.

It is illogical and deeply hypocritical that modern feminism, dominated by progressive currents, promotes abortion as an «inalienable right» in the West, celebrating it as «female empowerment,» while completely ignoring the selective genocide of girls in countries like India and China, where millions are killed in the womb just for their sex.

If feminism presents itself as a defender of women, why does it not raise its voice? This contradiction reveals that, for many left-wing feminists, the «right to choose» is selective and convenient, leaving the real victims of cultural misogyny unprotected.

The next war might be over who gets the young women.

Maybe Trump can trade them our purple haired AFWL's (Affluent White Liberal) women.

Fortunately, they ripped the balls of some large number of the extra males, to make them act more like the girls they killed off.

No no no

The left tells us they are not people.

They can’t be people when they want to exploit them as people, and not people when they aren’t wanted.

Thats not what a person is. Its not dependent on someone elses wants and feelings.

So I reject this mistake they have made. They weren’t ever people. So no trying to turn it into women are victims.

My thoughts exactly. When the demographics reach a point, that’s when things get REALLY serious.

Then, most likely, there will have to be big wars to kill off a percentage of the males to calm things back down.

just a wild guess...

women support abortion in far greater numbers than men.

I will consider opposing views only supported by documentation
