Careful what you wish for...

Apparently, some of the same radicals who argued women have the "right" to privately decide to terminate, for any reason, 'blobs of tissue' that are 'invading their bodies' are now concerned those empowered women might chose to terminate the wrong blobs of tissue:'

Boy or girl? A simple blood test in mothers-to-be can answer that question with surprising accuracy at about seven weeks, a research analysis has found.Though not widely offered by U.S. doctors, gender-detecting blood tests have been sold online to consumers for the past few years. Their promises of early and accurate results prompted genetics researchers to take a closer look.

The authors say the results suggest blood tests like those studied could be a breakthrough for women at risk of having babies with certain diseases, who could avoid invasive procedures if they learned their fetus was a gender not affected by those illnesses. But the study raises concerns about couples using such tests for gender selection and abortion.

If it weren't such a serious issue, it'd be funny watching all the knots being tied in the reasoning here.  If abortion is a vital Constitutional right and wholly the discretion of the mother, then whose business is it if she chooses to favor having a son over a daughter?  On the other hand, if feminists and their fellow radicals are suddenly finding an imperative to protect the lives of pre-born girls from elective abortion, why doesn't that apply to boys?

Oh, what tangled webs we weave, when in our sin we self-deceive...
