Reason #102394 We Should Be Rethinking China
The 1999 report of the Alan Guttmacher Institute says that between
500,000 and 750,000 unborn Chinese girls are aborted every year after
sex screening.
This is where America will see itself at the end of all of this deliberation in regards to stem cells, etc. Not necessarily with the sex of the baby, but with “not optimal standards” like a disease that we think the baby might have in-utero or something of that nature.
I find it amazing that we equate knowledge with the right to do these things, and yet doctors can’t even explain totally how the whole reproduction thing works, and worked fine on its own without hospitals, etc.

what do you mean by “worked fine”? In the 18th century, infant mortality was at like 20%.
All depends on how far back you go, I guess. Certainly there are recorded instances of women having multiple children without doctors and hospitals in ancient times. I know that there were also cases of losing women in childbirth, but that also happens now.
