8. • Infanticide sometimes referred
as infant homicide is the
intentional killing of infants.
• In many past societies, certain
forms of infanticide were
considered permissible. In
India, female infanticide is
more common than the killing
of male offspring, due to sex-
selective infanticide.
9. Women are perceived as subservient because of their role
as homemakers, whilst men predominantly ensure the
family's social and economic stability.
Some parents particularly poor ones who can't afford to
support a large family, will kill female babies.
Girls are considered a drain on family resources during
their childhood without bringing economic benefits later on.
Some girl babies are killed so that the family doesn't have
to pay a dowry when they get married.
10. It’s A GIRL
The three deadliest words in the world
The infant was wrapped in a wet towel or dipped in cold water as
soon as it was born or when it came back home from hospital.
If, after a couple of hours, it was still alive it was taken to a doctor
who would diagnose pneumonia and prescribe medicine, which the
parents promptly threw away.
When the child finally died, the parents had a medical certificate to
prove pneumonia.
Sometimes the infant was fed a drop of alcohol to create diarrhea:
another certifiable disease.
11. AND EVEN IF THEY MANAGE
TO SURVIVE ARE THEY
REALLY LUCKY???

17. INDIA
WHERE WOMEN ARE BOUGHT AND SOLD!!!!
According to a recent survey women are bought and sold with impunity
and trafficked to other countries from different parts of India.
They are forced to work as sex workers undergoing severe exploitation and
abuse.
These women are the most vulnerable group in contracting HIV infection.
Brides now are trafficked from other states , where the gender ratio is
more equitable.
