Infertile Women Would Use Sex Selection

>Betterhumans quotes a recent survey which shows that 41% of women undergoing infertility treatments would select the sex of their child if possible.

Interestingly enough:

Contradicting fears that such sex selection would cause gender imbalance, the
survey found that women with no children would choose baby girls and boys in
approximately equal numbers.

Furthermore, women with only daughters wanted to
select a male child while women with only sons wanted to select a female child.
