title: Procreative liberty, or collective responsibility? Comment on the House of Commons report Human Reproductive Technologies and the Law, and on Dahl's response.
abstract: The matter of social sex selection is of universal interest. It is argued that it is so important that an insular response by the select committee on the subject must be replaced by one founded on an international human rights stance, in which light sex selection may only be seen as sexist per se.
