SEX IS DEATH. [Part 110: Quick! Hide your vaginas!]

I came to Carthage, where I found myself in the midst of a hissing cauldron of lusts. I had not yet fallen in love, but I was in love with the idea of it, and this feeling that something was missing made me despise myself for not being more anxious to satisfy the need. I began to look around for some object for my love, since I badly wanted to love something.

In India, Ratio of Young Women Will Drop Sharply, Study Says


What an innocent, non-horrific headline. Here, let me try one that is more appropriate...

HOLY FUCKIN' SHIT! THEY'RE MURDERING GIRLS JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE GIRLS!


Just wait until they make those vending machines from a couple of posts ago sonogram capable...

NEW DELHI — The ratio of women to men among India’s young people, which has been low compared with Western nations for decades, will drop further in the coming years, the Indian government has reported.

For people ages 15 to 34, the number of women for every thousand men will drop to 898 in 2031 from 939 in 2011, the report says, using projections from the World Bank. That decline outpaces a more modest drop in the sex ratio among the general population in the same period, and indicates the continuing practice of sex-selective abortion, experts say. The report, by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, was published in March.

Evidence of the abortion of female fetuses emerged strongly in the 1980s and has continued since then, in part because of the introduction and proliferation of ultrasound technology. The sex ratio in the general population dropped to 927 in 1991, census data shows, and has rebounded slightly since.

Golly, where are all those left-fascist alleged feminists on this one?

The truth is they don't give a fuck about women, girls, or men. They are only interested in power.

And what turns a fascist on more than having the power of life and death over others?

Nothing.


Among the reasons for Indians’ preference for a male child are the perception that men will take care of their aging parents financially, a desire to pass lineage through a male heir and a fear of being financially crippled by a dowry. But the report highlights what would appear to be a paradox: Even as fertility declines and as incomes and education increase, the process of sex-selective abortion continues.

“People are selecting to have fewer children but selecting to have boys,” said Poonam Muttreja, the executive director of the Population Foundation of India, a nongovernmental organization.

India outlawed prenatal sex determination in 1994, but enforcement is lax. Ms. Muttreja said that as income levels rise, so do aspirations, and as Indians emerge into the middle class they are limiting the size of their families and focusing their resources on male children, who are seen to offer a better return on investment.
The fertility rate of women in urban areas has come down to just over two children per woman in 2014, down from more than five in 1971.

Don't laugh at the backward Third-Worlders, kiddies. Your friends and neighbors [and maybe you] are using a similar calculus...

"Boys are less bother than girls, and they always want new shoes and dresses."

In 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi introduced the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao campaign, which translates to Save the Daughter, Educate the Daughter, aimed at raising awareness about the harm of sex selection.

But Ms. Muttreja said that the campaign “cannot be just a slogan,” adding: “We have to do a lot more in changing social norms.”

INSTANT TRANSLATION: "We have to start killing a lot more boys!"
