Proposal to make sex-selective abortion legal up to birth in Scotland prompts backlash

An article from RightToLife News.

Extracts:

The report was commissioned by the Scottish Government and undertaken by the Abortion Law Review Expert Group, which was chaired by a former trustee of the UK’s largest abortion provider. The group consisted of 13 individuals, the majority of whom have either been on the board or worked for the UK’s largest abortion provider, BPAS, or have a history of pro-abortion campaigning, including BPAS’ current Head of Advocacy

Kathleen Stock, contributing editor of Unherd, said, “Aborting a baby because it’s a baby = silence. Aborting a baby because it’s a girl = howls of outrage. From baby’s perspective, there isn’t much difference though”…

Columnist Allison Pearson said, “Civilization is dismantling itself brick by brick”.

  1. “Healthcare professionals could approve abortions at full-term”. Sickening, but we all knew this was coming. Columnist Allison Pearson is spot-on when she said, “Civilization is dismantling itself brick by brick”.

  2. China had a one child policy from around 1980 to 2016. In rural areas, having a boy to work the soil could make all the difference to a family’s survival. After the introduction of portable ultrasound machines, there was a tsunami of sex-selective abortions which favoured boys. A couple of decades later, the law of unintended consequences kicks in. There’s a vast ‘excess’ of unattached young men in rural China, having little or no possibility of forming a family, due to these chaps heavily outnumbering the available women, and the insane hypergamy of these available women, now that China’s industrialisation has been successful.

    Any suggestion of ‘excess’ males makes women twitchy. For almost two decades, US Government ‘advisors’ like Valerie Hudson have been stirring it up that Asia’s ‘Bare Branches’ pose a threat to the west, as they are an untapped military resource. And could be used in expansionist ventures for resources. Like advanced semiconductors in Taiwan. Her book ‘Bare Branches’ discloses her thoughts.

    If you want to see what Valerie and her feminist chums think of ‘excess’ domestic males, then her book ‘Sex & World Peace’ gives an insight into their little minds.

    • Maybe true in many parts of the world but the limited evidence from the US is that where choices can be made in abortions and fertility treatments it is Girls who are favoured over boys in the general population (rather than specific ethnic minorities). After all who would want to deal with some “toxic” male child if they could have a sweet little girl. The consensus after 50 years of feminism of the “all men are rapists” type is after all that boys are at best “hard work” and at worse become misogynistic murderers at 13!

    Respectfully I think we have forgotten one more issue or response to this.

    Remember that this is the feminists pushing this.

    • Exactly Rob. In the US where the “customer is king” in fact what was found is that in selective abortions and fertility treatments males are more likely to aborted or screened out (when selecting the viable “eggs”). Needless to say this has been reported as an interesting fact whereas any hint that the reverse may be true in minority cultures produces the “howls of outrage”.

      Here its very secretive on this though there is evidence for such at “private” clinics. Given the general perception of Girls being all things nice it wouldn’t be surprising to find the same pattern in general with specific ethnic minority cultures going the other way.
