[quote=Anonymous]The reason I oppose sex selection with IVF is that the aggregate impacts could be very bad for society. It's not that your choice is going to ruin your family or the world it's that if everyone starts choosing you wind up with a lot of problems in terms of gender balance in society plus it's a great way for a lot of sexist and gender essentialist attitudes to get reinforced. For these reasons I think it should be illegal except in the rare circumstance where there is a genetic issue that makes it inadvisable for a couple to have a baby with specific chromosomes. In which case it's not really sex selection as just selecting for the most viable chromosomes.[/quote]
