I believe you both are missing the point. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the issue isn't the abortion itself, it's the fact that once a mother in China discovers her unborn child to be female, the chances of abortion are exponentially higher, if not guaranteed. This is likely due to the two-child policy. After all, a woman cannot lead a family. You need a son to continue the bloodline. This is why there are a lack of women in China, and why they opt to kidnap women from other countries.
It's about the statistics, not the act.
