I for one, is against gender bias.
The issue of gender equality has been resonating through society
for decades now, no doubt this world that we live in has been
shaped by historically by males. But we are past that era; this is
the era of equal rights, opportunities and meritocracy.
If women should be deprived of their birthrights, just to
increase birth rate. I must say that is the most inane and male
chauvinistic solution I've ever heard. While something
so obtuse might be able to increase birth rate, there're
better options and governmental policies we've yet to explore.
Lets not forget the other ugly face of gender bias. In many
other countries, women generally, suffer a higher mortality rate
than men because of gender bias. Remember China's one child policy?
Accounts of farmers burying alive their newborn daughters. And more
notably, the more recent gang-raped victim from middle East whom
went to jail? I do not think I need to expound further.
As for the old testament that bashes women's rights, oh
give me a break already. BTW, to the MCPs whom based their attacks
on women's rights on Bible, EPIC FAIL! You guys don't even read the
bible right. 
The modern woman whom is a working professional and also a
mother, is lugging a double burden, juggling work and her family
- That is respectable, 'nuff said.
"If women should be deprived of
their birthrights, just to increase birth rate." - I dont
see how educated is a 'birthright'. If anything, a woman is
created, naturally, biologically to nurture a baby.
"there're better options and
governmental policies we've yet to explore." - The issue at
hand is not policy, its the cause of the problem we are in.
"ugly face of gender bias"
- this is nothing to do with gender bias, more of natural process.
I dont know why people assume that housework and caregiving is
inferior. Those people are the real chauvinists who look down on
the noble female role.
"The modern woman whom is a
working professional and also a mother, is lugging a double burden,
juggling work and her family " - that is a retardation of
natural process, putting incredible (and unfair) workloads on
women, and leading to the undeniable plummeting
birthrates.
