Yeah, female babies are killed and dumped by Chinese families. With 2 billion people China is seriously trying to shrink it down. Besides the economy heading down the toilet because of the effects of this, females are not prefered. Families get benefits and reqards for only having one kid. So if you get a female, you're screwed. Honor is a big thing over there, and if you have no body to continue your family name, you're screwed. Plus dowry is pretty big over there, so to get your daughter married it's gonna cost you a hell of a lot. So being a female chinese person is no walk in the park.

Just a bit O' info.
