I can only hope that you get the opportunity to join me in
supporting a ban on sex-selection abortions.
Of course most of us would support a ban on self-selection abortion.
But PGD is not abortion, unless you have a really bad understanding
of developmental biology.
Let me ask you again. Do you think we should tailor our laws to
remedy the shortcomings of the Chinese social system?
I still have no idea what you mean by this. I merely think that if
the Chinese Communists think that a certain procedure is too
gruesome to allow in their own country, that should be a strong
tipoff that we shouldn't be allowing it in our own country either.
They're not banning it because it's "gruesome", they're banning it
because they're worried it'll skew their already skewed gender-bias
even further.
