Dear Nascy Caldeira:
"'.... foetus-icide' " is referred to as abortion.
Sex selected (or other genetic traits ) determined while in utero, and deemed
unwanted.
Infanticide is killing infants, male or female after birth.
Both occur/occurred in China, as in countries where women are marginalised.

Dear Dr Jose, and all goanetters,
Actually meant to write: 'female foetus-icide' instead of infanticide. But
realised my silly mistake after posting it.
Just wanted to say that this anti female norms now and in the old days, in
Indian Culture, is deep rooted in the Indian Psyche!
Hence the practice of Sati and female foetus-icide. Both these evil practices
are connected, in this cultural scene, and one is worse than another.
These type of people are only about so called/percieved 'economic' benefit; no
humanitarian ethics is processed here; and the outcomes are cruel and criminal,
even in Common Law.
India does not know?? that women are an asset and how to use this human
resource, to advantage, like in the progressive world? Or so it seems and there
are no programs to emphasize this and to teach and spread the good message.
And then again they still want to go learn from primitive sources instead of
from advanced progressive places.
Would this be Anti Indian sentiment or Denationalising, I WONDER!
I would not want to be such a national, for sure and have a criminal conscience.
Hoorah to the Enlightened!

RESPONSE:
Baba Nascy,
It is possible that you too need to read a wee bit more and then post a
correction.
BTW: You may also have mis-comprehended the term 'INFANT' and confused it with
the term 'FOETUS'
