New Test Opens Door to Eugenic Sex Selection Abortions

A new kit that allows pregnant women to test the gender of their fetus is about to be marketed—opening up the door to sex selection abortions. As I point out at Secondhand Smoke :

How ironic that a procedure [abortion] intended by its supporters to liberate women is likely to become a tool–as ultra sounds have on a mass scale in India and China–enabling the sexist destruction of (mostly) women-to-be.  But it won’t matter.  Abortion has helped open the door to a eugenic culture in which one of the first casualties has been parental unconditional love of their child.

Eugenics consciousness is back. Gender testing isn’t the end, it is only the beginning.
