In March of this year, China’s health ministry released abortion data. Approximately 13 million abortions are performed in China every year. That’s 25 abortions every minute! They estimate that since 1971, ~325 million abortions have been performed. That’s the population of the United States. Tragic!

Just before I saw your post, I came across this news article.
Thought I would share. It’s related.

Truly sad. I think a large part of the blame can be put on a culture of sexism (unwanted female babies) and the government’s authoritarian population control practices. I’m also curious about contraception and sexual education over there. I’m guessing it is lacking.
