Gender Imbalance In India

In “Abortion Bind and Gender Imbalances,” Delivery (2008), writes Gender imbalance is “most instances discriminates against female fetuses and produces socially adverse gender imbalances”. The number of boys is much higher than that of girls. According to “Abortion bind and gender imbalances”(2008), the sex ratios are very common in India, which have a high of 127 boys for 100 girls. After that, the average age of India is 29 years old, which means India has a lot of process for growing labor force by Hanada. Moreover, many social problems will cause by gender imbalance. HIV and AIDS affect health of young people by Hanada. There are not enough work places for so many young people in India. No enough girls are big problem for young boys, because there are not enough girls for them by Hanada. Therefore, that large numbers of bachelors affects the safety of society. Gender bias problem that we face right now, the women cannot have same rights of education by Hanada. “ At the macroeconomic level, female education is a key source of support for long-term economic growth” (Korea Herald, 2008). That means education for female in India is very important for gender balance. If women get knowledge, they will independent in economic. Therefore, they will have more powerful to protect their rights. Gender imbalance likes global worming; it is a big problem that we should deal with. Why should men have better care when they are born? Women have 50% of responsible to build this world. Women can work as good as men. Sometimes women do something more brightness than men. So from research I want to find some ways to help change gender imbalance and help women get their rights.
According to recent statistics the gender imbalance is very common in India. There are 127 boys for 100 girls and among Christians a low of 104 in India (The Korea Herald, 2008). From the number, we cannot find if it is very big problem for us. But India is one of the countries that have the biggest population in this world. What should India government do to solve this problem? How can the India government handle some problems that are caused by gender imbalance, such as unemployment, or too many vagrants? Gender imbalance causes social, economic and health problems. We should try to change some people’s opinion that boys are better than girls. We should avoid of gender narrowing that decrease the GDP of country. We should pay more attention on HIV and AID.

The primary reason that gender imbalance will cause social problems is that more and more people want boys than girls; they use ultrasound machines or some medicines to choose the sex of their children. Especially in some LDCS, India people want to continue the family name and bloodline, earn money, and be took care of them when they retired (Abortion Bind And Gender Imbalances, 2008). Therefore, girls take the second class. From technologic girls also continue the bloodline; the reason that people prefer boys is that boys have stronger body to grow rice. Long time ago, agriculture was first business. The world has changed a lot. We should forget this traditional opinion. Women have same rights for education and working. The India government gives some rebate and tax back to encourage families to have girls, but also encourage families give girls better education by Korea. Without economic independent is reason that women can’t win their rights in her family. They should obey what their husband said. The family violence is also cause by this case. If India government wants to change gender imbalance, they should give to girls same rights for high education. “ The more educated women are, the more likely they are to invest in the health and education of their families.” (The Korea Herald, 2008 ).

Moreover, there are the economic problems are caused by gender imbalance. The best example is India and China has one-third population in this world, but their GDP cannot march with Japan and U.S. My point is the population is not most important resources right now. The agriculture industry has gone. Technical is the most important resources. However, in LDCS, people use their hands to grow rice and 10 people should spend 1 day to finish their job. In MDS, one person spends 1hours to finish whole job with machine. The technology improves work efficiency a lot. So India government should give their citizen more changes for studying new knowledge. “ In 2007, Grant Thornoton International surveyed 7,200 privately held businesses in 32 countries, representing 81 percent of global GDP, to gauge gender gaps for top-level executives. Japan came in last.” (Korea Herald). From this research, we know that because the educating women in Japan are much higher than other 31 countries. Girl has as powerful as boy, there are many successful businesswomen in the world, such as the chairwoman of Sanyo Electric Co. Women in east Africa contribute about 50% of GDP, so when they lack economic emancipation and opportunities, countries are losing 2% of GDP because of this imbalance. (East African Business Week, 2007). So we should let people know women can also create more value as men. The India government should give women more chance to run their own business. The India government should give women more opportunities to find their jobs.

Third, the gender imbalance causes too many boys become bachelors. If we have too many boys do not have girls, what will their do? They will try to find some women who have get married or young girls. The percentage of crimes will increase faster. Furthermore, “Half of HIV or AIDS affects young people, in India” (Handa, 2007). It’s clearly that HIV and AIDS is the first killer for young people. I think most people do not watch out for it. Maybe they think it is far from them. The government should let young people watch some videos or give some speech, which helps them know how important it is. HIV and AIDS does not just happen around young people, it’s a social problem. India parents should limit their children’s going to clubs or some dangerous place alone. Some entertainment places should limit young children from coming in. Because of gender imbalance, the girls in India can’t get same care as boys. We can’t chose our sex when we are born, so parents should take care of their babies in equal way. If girls live in family without love, it’s very harmful to their heart. They become very depressing and sad. They will think the whole world give up them. Many children will choose suicide. I think that spirit care are more important than physical part.
In conclusion, these days, gender imbalance is not just problem that India government should face. It's a problem that stands in the front of us, like global warming. All of people should have responsibility for this. We should look at women and men in equal way. We should forget so stupid traditional opinion. Government should encourage people use new technology to develop their business. We should put our eyes on gender imbalance. India government has give families money to encourage them have girls. We should know that it is not solve the problem yet. The India government should give girls more chance for education. It will help them win their own rights. The India parents should know that girl is also their child. They should give them more care. Especially for their spirit.
