Oh dear. Yet another victim of the std.nonsense global cooling error. "Thanks" to ABM for pointing this out. If you can bear watching piles of twaddle, get in quick before the BBC watch-again feature expires.

yeah, this is a big problem. I don't exactly know anyone who has detailed the social problems that are associated with this. its clearly a scary problem for men (not so much for women). but what are the consequences?
yes..I've been aware of this for 2 years..the ratios are crazy, especially in South China where it might be 130/100 male/female babies.
what is also occuring is a sizable exodus from China of marriagable women..there is a black market to determine the sex of a fetus, because it's now illegal to have ultra-sound tests
this is a clear case of gendercide and the impications are far reaching and will remain for some years..
