Gender selective abortions pose an interesting quandary for the pro-choice camp. Most of them don't consider a fetus a person. Yet clearly some third world cultures have archaic attitudes towards the female gender, as Seema has pointed out is the case with a subset of the demographic originating from India.

If there were fewer assimilation pressures on these communities, the gender imbalance meter would go off its hinges if it were to gauge gender parity in these groups.

This should indeed rile up any feminist with integrity. Yet most of them keep quiet because they're afraid of confronting another culture and afraid of being culturally insensitive!
