Omg is there infanticide going on in qatar and the likes? Or are people not registering female births?

Please let it be the latter, as a bad solution amongst worse solutions.

In many countries where males are valued more highly culturally, infanticide is depressingly common. On a similar note, many countries have outlawed doctors revealing the baby's sex during pregnancy appointments because too many parents would end the pregnancy if it was going to be a girl.
