Where Are the Feminists?

Demonstrating that its really all about keeping abortion legal, everything else be damned:

Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute (PRI), has charged that American feminists are refusing to address the problem of sex-selective abortions, a phenomenon in which unborn children of an unwanted sex are aborted. Mosher claims that over 100 million girls are missing, primarily due to parents who use ultrasound examinations to choose whether or not to abort the unborn child.

Speaking in PRI’s latest YouTube video, Mosher says the disparity is particularly noticeable in East and South Asia, but also in American groups of Asian descent.

In China, India, and other Asian countries, there is a strong preference for boys,” Mosher says. “This combination of a preference for boys and modern technology—the ultrasound machine—has proven deadly for millions upon millions of baby girls.”

The PRI video cites a recent study published by the National Academy of Sciences.

“Where are the feminists when you need them?” Mosher asks…

The lesson here is that if you want justice, liberty, etc you can only get it if you apply it to everyone – exclude the unborn or the sick elderly, and the injustice you allow will just breed more. Abortion, in and of itself, is unjust – sex selection abortion just doubles down on it…and the feminists – except for a relative few with wisdom over at Feminists for Life – stay silent about this destruction of the next generation of women.

Do you want to live? Then you have to defend everyone’s right to life. Do you want to have a fair shot in life? Then everyone who comes into life must also have a fair shot. Do you want to be respected as an individual? Then you have to respect all individuals. Can’t have it both ways – you are for Life, or you are for Death…and most feminists are for Death.
