Consider, thirty years later, the number of Chinese girls being raised in this country as adoptees.

Consider, thirty years later, the number of Chinese girls being raised in this country as adoptees.

China allows only one child per couple (if you ever want state assistance)... all men want a boy to carry on their name (and to work and earn money) ... this equals millions of unwanted girls given to orphanages so the couple who had her can try again for a boy.

I wonder what will happen when China has only men and no women in their country. Will they be cloning their children?

WASHINGTON - Amid a discussion of trade in 1973, Chairman Mao Zedong made what Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger called a novel proposition: sending tens of thousands, even 10 million, Chinese women to the United States.

"You know, China is a very poor country," Mao said, according to a document released by the State Department's historian office. "We don't have much. What we have in excess is women. So if you want them we can give a few of those to you, some tens of thousands."
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/WeirdNews/2008/02/14/4847649-ap.html"><P>
A few minutes later, Mao circled back to the offer.

"Do you want our Chinese women?" he asked. "We can give you 10 million."
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/WeirdNews/2008/02/14/4847649-ap.html"><P>
After Kissinger noted Mao was "improving his offer," the chairman said, "We have too many women. They give birth to children and our children are too many."

"It is such a novel proposition," Kissinger replied in his discussion with Mao in Beijing. "We will have to study it."
