By establishing this principle, family loyalties would be cheapened and weakened, reducing every individual to nothing more than a unit of the state. At bottom, it's a campaign to destroy Christian culture. I cited their indifference to forced abortion in Communist China. Meanwhile, feminists have mounted a campaign to abolish the cruel practice of female circumcision in parts of Africa and the Middle East. Horrifying as this custom is to Westerners, it is deeply rooted in local cultures, unlike the relatively recent forced-abortion policy of the Chinese regime.
Parents often perform it on their own daughters.
And it can hardly be more painful than being forced to undergo the murder of a well-developed child in the womb. I think the answer is that they regard the deprivation of sexual pleasure with infinitely more shock and horror than the deprivation of parenthood. The sexual revolution exalts the orgasm but despises the family and the child. Chinese Communism has come to terms with capitalism, but it continues to make war on cultural tradition. Its imposition of forced abortion from above is not so different from the U.S. Supreme Court's imposition of abortion on demand on all 50 states.
