Upon hearing Yue Qingqing's words, most of the reporters present fell silent.
Especially the female reporters.
Male preference is a "tradition" in China that has existed since ancient times, and everyone present has felt it to some extent.
The more remote the area, the truer this is.
Girls have to toil like cattle at home from a young age and are denied educational opportunities.
When they grow up, they are married off for a bride price to help their brothers pay for wedding expenses.
They cannot inherit their parents' assets, yet they have the obligation to care for them.
Have not all sorts of tragedies resulted from male preference been happening every day?
Only with social development and progress have more enlightened areas gradually changed this concept.
But it cannot be denied that under the one-child policy, most families still prefer to have a boy.
Because of this, how many newborn girls face death every year?
