Missing women of China

Missing women in China is a term used to describe the large number of females who are not living in China. It is estimated that there are nearly 20 million more Chinese males than females. This difference is largely due to practices like gender selective abortion, where families choose to abort a baby if it is a girl. This practice has been happening for many years and has caused a big imbalance in the population. It is a problem that China is working hard to address.
