Question Debate on Celebrity-babies.com

I was just reading a debate on the celebrity-babies web site. It started when a reader was offended that some celebrity moms had a preference for one gender over another (specifically boys over girls). Just wondering what your opinions are about that.

it depends...everyone is entitled to their opinion, but are they actually paying for procedures to get the sex that they want?

Not that it says in the debate but who knows, now a days you can pretty much make a baby with any features you want. Here is a link so you can read it yourself....

I think it's an interesting idea. It's going back to making sure we aren't a culture that values one gender over another.
