As you probably already know, in China and India there are more men than women, many families consider girls to be useless so they are aborted or even killed at birth, boys are preferred because they can work and support the family. Therefore, due to this imbalance many men have problems finding a bride, there just aren't enough women in these countries.
However, because of this scarcity, wouldn't girls become more valuable over time? Apparently in some regions, the bride's family still has to pay for the wedding and give a certain dowry to the groom, which is simply stupid. It should be the other way around, since girls are more rare, the groom should pay for the bride, so families will be encouraged to have more girls.
Do you think this imbalance will correct itself in time?
