GENDER INEQUALITY Gender Bias in Parenting

Boy V/S Girl

A Boy Child or a Girl Child have been treated differently since ages. A desire of having a 'Son' rather than a 'Daughter' is still there in most parts of the country.Does it really matter for you? Why do you think our society has this preference for having Son rather than Daughter?

it is very shameful that popular application like first cry is asking these kind of question. Why do you need to arise this question????

Asking questions isnt bad, is it?
Does it mean it is advocating any particular gender preference?
Its always easy to jump to arguments and/or oppose.
The point here is, it is asked - why do u think sons society has preference of son over daughters.

If you don't think it is like this, then you can comment accordingly stating you don't think so sons are given preference over daughters.
Others may agree or disagree depending on their experiences in their families n society.

How does it make this question shameful? Does not asking a question bring about a change in situation existing or influence it in anyway? Like wise, asking it too doesn't, as long as we take the question in the right sense.
