What is going to happen to the females that got ok'ed by the parents, after giving a choice.
It sets every female, women or childen up for rape.
What did they expect for men with no women, and no chanch to ever have one?
Women will have their pick though, if they can live past childhood.
I came from Singapore, where the mindset is similar, most first time parents and their in-laws all want 'boys' as their first born.
I did well- gave my ex-husband, 2 sons.
Having said that, Singapore has a Woman's Charter Act that prohibits men from taking more than 1 wife.
This Act is useless, as when going thru a divorce in Singapore, the woman ALWAYS, in most cases, loses, joint/full custody of her kids.
I was one of the lucky ones, to get full custody of my 2 sons.
However, the Singapore Confucius Judge, REFUSED to hear the childsupport matter, and I financially supported my 2 sons. While their wealthy bio-dad became - a deadbeat father.
Women count for nothing in Singapore, unless of course, the woman has the full support of her parents.
Women in Singapore, are merely chattels.
yes, many cultures don't care for women, they are meant for breeding, as it is the male that carries the NAME. I think it is different in Mexico, as the mexicans carry their Mothers' last names.
I am glad that the law for women are changing.
And people bow to him?
