But what happened to all the girls in the village?

Me to was wondering the same. The sex ratio has completely tilted on one side. 2,50,000 brides is a large number!!!!!!

Wow! Maybe Serbian people are also pro-boys and it has lead to shortage of girls? But won’t getting girls from other neighbouring countries lead to domestic problems due to cultural differences? In India, intercaste marriages lead to so much friction in some families, wonder how so many marriages will cope with that.

If they don’t take this step then the existence of their race is at stake I suppose.

Its the survival of the race issue that makes our own society so damn strict about inter caste and inter racial marriages! Perhaps we should learn something form the Serbs here and get over our boy child and race obssessions!!

I guess you are right. Imagine the state of their society.

Had read somewhere that in some villages in Punjab, we have similar problem due to female - male ratio and many brothers ’share’ wife.

I feel ’importing’ is a much better idea than Sharing.

@ Manish.. your words are often replica of intelligent satire.

Do yu guys remeber 3 or 4 years ago, there was a movie featuring Nandita Das which depicted the large downfall in sex ratio, which made the guy’s familiy pay for the bride ! can yu beat that! the age-old tradition of dowry was set topsy-tervy..

scarcity of women ’led to sharing of wives’ as rightly pointed out by Manish..

@ Ruchi, glad you notice that :)

The preference of boy child over girl child is leading to these kind of serious complications in society but still people continue believing in this stupid idea.

Just imagine Serbia as a country is facing this problem! How stupid people are.
