Where are the girls? Documentary on gendercide

New Documentary on Gendercide
 
         “It’s a Girl: The Three Deadliest Words in the World” is the title of a new documentary, and it’s not much of an exaggeration. The United Nations estimate is now that there are over 200 million “missing” females in the world due to feticide, infanticide, and abandonment of babies solely because of their gender.

He is discussing the Roman Empire.
 
        “The advantages of Christian females began at birth. Infanticide was widely practiced by Greco-Romans, and it was especially female infants who were dispatched. A study of inscriptions at Delphi made it possible to reconstruct six hundred families. Of these, only six had raised more than one daughter. As would be expected, the bias against female infants showed up dramatically in the sex ratios of the imperial population. It is estimated that there were 131 males per 100 females in the city of Rome, and 140 males per 100 females elsewhere in the Empire.”

India: Priest Urges religous leaders to "save" baby girls

The priest, who is based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat’s commercial capital, noted that the child sex ratio in the state is 883 females to 1,000 males as against the national ratio of 920 to 1,000.

Despite efforts to address this imbalance, Indian society continues to prefer boys to girls, he said. And this leads to numerous abortions of girls. In Hindu religious practice, a son often has the responsibility of performing the last rites for family members. While sons inherit family wealth, girls are considered a burden as they need to be married off with dowries.
