In Future, Least Suitable Man Won’t Get Wife in India and China !!

[dolly2003]

Dear jatlanders,
This article i was reading and it is really alarming to know this situation...

The gender imbalance will be raised as the biggest problem in two of the AsiaÂ’s biggest Countries, China and India. The current birth rate of male and female child shows that after twenty years China and India will have about 15 percent more men than women.
It sounds horrible but true. The tradition of getting son has disturbed the sex ratio in this region.
Dr. Therese Hesketh of the University College London Institute of Child Health said that, Sex-selective abortion and discrimination in care practices for girls have led to higher female mortality.
The main cause of the rising imbalance is the sex-relative abortion. As a result, it is reported that about 80 million missing females in India and China alone. If this ratio continues, it would lead to more violence in the society.
In future, because of more men and less women, women would marry with the most suitable and least suitable will have no marriage prospects.
Therese Hesketh said, further, that this would lead to more antisocial-behavior and violence, as gender is a well-established correlate of crime, and especially violent crime.
The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has published the detail of the report on gender imbalance.

I dont see anything wrong, as per my experience I think in India too many people get married anyways. Many are undeserving, these undeserving males end up mistreating their women (domestic violence, abuse, cheating and what not) simply because they dont even know what getting married actually means. Being from a good family is a sure license for getting a much more talented wife than oneself who can be treated like sh*t. And I dont even wanna start of removing the bad ones from the gene pool.
Such changes would definitly get these bad lemons out of the scene and would bring more value to the women in society and the society altogether.

It will not happen after 20 years but very soon and it has started showing its effects aleady. The sex ratio in Haryana is already imbalanced with data from different sources showing a difference of 150 or more.

Wow. This is good news. I dont want "weaklings, good for nothings," reproducing more weaklings who are good for nothing.

This will lead to selective breeding, and strong and confident people will reproduce healthy children.

This is how nature balances out the scum created by us human beings.

Pretty dumb responses on an important issue from otherwise arguably
intelligent people!

Folks, when you get a chance, and if you are too tired to think
through it yourself, google on "consequences of gender imbalance" and
you should find plenty of material to convince you that this is not a good
thing, and that the probability of social turmoil, deviant behaviour,
violence, abuse of women etc. actually goes up in such circumstances.

[And, oh yeah... :D... if you are one of those geeky, nerdy guys
doing your studies in US, who happen to consider yourselves high on
Darwin's heirarchy...better be careful when you go to India. Those
lustful lonely deprived moluds who can't get laid might just take a liking
to you...and then you'd not think of gender imbalance as all that
desirable... :D ;) :p ]

PM calls for change in mindset towards women
Indo-Asian News Service
New Delhi, August 31, 2006


Calling for a change in the mindset of people towards gender equality and women empowerment, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday said he was deeply disturbed by the rising crime graph against women and female foeticide which he described as 'barbaric'.
"The worst manifestation of gender discrimination is female foeticide. How can we call ourselves a civilised society if we can tolerate such a barbaric crime?" Manmohan Singh said in his keynote address at the golden jubilee celebrations of Lady Shri Ram College in New Delhi.
"This is not committed by the illiterate and the impoverished and is being committed, very often, in this very city, perhaps in this very neighbourhood."
"It is in the more developed districts and regions of our country that we find a higher incidence of this ghastly crime. This is both shocking and demeaning."
In his hard-hitting speech, the prime minister touched on various problems affecting women and also what needed to be done if women were to be accorded their rightful place in the society.
"We have to ensure equality of pay and provide supporting structures for mothers in work places. We have to make our cities safe for girls and women of all ages. We have to make public places, public transport, our roads and parks, our offices and homes, safe for our women. I am deeply distressed by the rising crime against women."
Underlining the importance of a social reforms movement that was imperative to change society's attitude towards women, Manmohan Singh said the need of the hour was a fundamental change in mindsets.
"Governments cannot change social attitudes. People can and must and we need a massive national movement to lay emphasis on these values and what we need in our country is a fundamental change in mindsets."
"On the one hand, we do see women becoming more empowered and capable. We do see greater participation of women in all walks of life. However, on the other hand, we see rising crimes against women. Our families worry about the lack of security for women," he said.
The prime minister, who was on the governing body of the college during his academic stint in Delhi University as professor at the Delhi School of Economics (1969-71), also lamented the attitude of educated people towards women.
"What is most distressing is the casual approach that so many educated people take to the harassment of women. We worry about the safety of our mothers, our sisters, and our daughters. I hope we can all join hands and work together to make our homes a happier place for the girl child and our women folk. Make our cities a safer and more secure place for girls at college and women at work."
The prime minister also talked about the measures his government has brought in for women including laws that prohibit arrest of women after sunset and before sunrise and allowing women judges to deal with rape cases.
"We have introduced gender budgeting in over 40 ministries to assess the impact of public spending on the welfare of our women," he said.
On his to-do list, Manmohan Singh said his government was aiming to put in place legislation to protect women against domestic violence and from sexual harassment at the workplace, permit flexibility in working hours for women, curb the barbaric practice of Sati and give Hindu women inheritance rights in co-parcenary property.
The prime minister said legislations to reserve seats in Parliament and state legislatures for women would be brought in the next session of Parliament.
"Such reservation at the gram panchayat (village bodies) levels has demonstrated its efficacy in empowering women across the country," he said.

Let us do our bit towards making a more educated, more aware and a society that has compassion and understanding.

[deepakchoudhry]

It is a serious issue and can cause huge imbalance in the society..no doubt.

Apart from the moral issue If we want a "healthy society" this ratio should be not lost.
