Answer:
In India, almost all classes seem to prefer male child over female child. I find this crazy. This tragic choice is due to the following factors:
1. Once they get married the female goes to an another family. Thus, the parents of females get 0, while the parents of males get 2. Indians are stuck between an ancient tribal system where everyone lived together and the modern system where families are nuclear. Both these are better for women than India's system of the bride moving to the in-laws house.
2. Females are not often groomed to take over the family business as they are expected to be distracted with raising children. Since the females are not helped to become business leaders [unlike sons who receive unfair advantage], businessmen often prefer sons. It is sort of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
3. Families with ancestral property think the female children as leading to division of property, while the males stay in the property and thus keeping the ancestral treasures within the family. In fact, dowry probably evolved to compensate the female for giving up her share of the family property to her brothers.
