She is my princess-my first kid.

Having a child is a blessing. As someone who has to go for treatment to conceive one, I can say that all that mattered to me was that my baby was born healthy. The gender equation comes to play afterwards. Does it matter to the mother, I don’t think so but to the society it surely matters. There is this deep rooted desire in our society to take the name of the father forward and the thinking that no matter how much success is garnered by a girl child, she will go to another family & she will be expected to take care of the family as her foremost duty. I have given birth to a boy and I fully intend to raise him to be a person who is understanding of his sisters and his future wives ambitions is proud of their success and who feels that he is equally responsible for the comfort of family. If we All teach to celebrate a women’s success our sons, it is then We will be able to create a better society for our daughters.

1. boys are safer than girls as of today in n out of home
2. many parents have been expecting returns especially in matters of money & staying as girls will be married off to her in-laws
3. parents have to give cash in bulk in the name of dowry or pocket money even if she's a single child, another added reason for corruption
4. bringing up girls are comparatively more expensive to some extent
5. many parents believe that they are more attached to child if opposite gender, I couldn't understand that thought

these are few reasons
truly i feel I'm okay with both, our motto should be to bring up a sensible healthy blessed children
as a mother, today I have a soft corner for girls than boys

My point of view is both r same. society has always desire of having a son. My baby is a boy. don't think this stupid thoughts. just think that God give us a beautiful creature and feel di creation God. But I must say girl is most important to have everyone. girls r understand the feelings of their momma. life is too short don't too much think for that. be happy always😊

Hi to all,
To be frank even though iam feminist I expected for a boy baby. Because I really scared of this society some may think of me to be stupid but still it's true. In day today life women are facing a lot so I don't want my baby to face that. See I had a 13 hours labour after my baby born doctors are doing the stitches but I hold nurse hand her name was Mrs Kala and asked in my mother tongue tamil (ponnu thaane poranthiruka) I gave birth to girl na... She replied yes I really had a great relief. I totally confused, I asked myself,
how u asked? U wanted only for a boy, then what is this... After 3hours I was shifted to my ward my mom gave my angel in my hand. That moment she gave me a wonderful smile which was very precious.. That was the moment I realized that, I need only boy all that blaa blaa and all only for this society but my inner heart always wanted for a girl.
Now iam writing this from my heart I really have no issues about girl or boy baby, both are precious treasure given by God they need to be protected.
When dowry system was completely abolished and women are given proper care, respect and fear free society only people mind will be change and they will accept both child are equal.. Until then some peoples in our society won't accept the gender equality
To be clear they can't change their thoughts...

Practice: In earlier days men used to go to work and women would cook and feed them. Men would sit in serious discussions but whereas women were not even allowed to come in and give an opinion. Post giving birth or even just after getting married a woman was expected to be an expert in Cooking and cleaning the house.To think in the most brightest side...May be(MAY BE) some of them thought that women are fragile to go out to work. Also the craze of Dowry and Jewels started to be the Final Icing on the cake.

Considering all this a mindset or ideology has been inserted inside the society that a woman anyway is
1.Too weak to run her family
2.Too weak to go out for work
3.Cannot talk boldly or opinionate as she has always been asked to go inside
4. We need to invest a lot for a girl....
5.A girls parent's cannot stay with her post marriage.
6.Our daughter cannot take care of us like our Son....
7.Blah Blah Blah
and since the male gender doesn't have this much of presumptions above them....a boy was/is/will always be preferred...But...but it's just half of the world that's running on this ideology....the other half have already moved forward or we can say"Started being normal"

Oh my....I've written too much...I have a boy btw 😁
