不能与中国一战的3200万个理由
据一份新的研究结果显示，中国的性别选择会使下一代的中国年轻人里多出3200多万的男孩。纽约时报报道：他们说，这种不均衡比其他国家要高；这个新的发现——他们写道——如果考虑到中国的独生子女政策就不会让人吃惊。他们把出现这种情况的原因归结于夫妻们有选择地流掉女婴胎儿。
由于中国实行一家一个孩子的政策，不少人说，中国是世界上第一个未富先老的国家。
但这种巨大的性别差距却有着一种令人害怕的地理政治的暗示。让我们想想，一个满是男性的国度会是危险和暴力的，为了缓解性挫折，贪婪的需求变成了越来越大的玩具：枪和导弹。这就是单一性别带给世界的，我们最好的愿望是在虚拟世界里和网吧里满是第一人称视角的射击游戏来解决这个问题。但我们怀疑这是否可行。很多人会想着摆脱虚拟，回到现实。
另外，还有另一些担心与中国一战最终成真的原因。有没有听过“纳税却没有（政治）代表”？在这里我们有过一场关于它的战争。因为我们试图摆脱债务，我们本质上就要向那些节约我们的美元的人们收税。结果是，他们中的大多数是在中国。那么中国人也许可能不会为了被一个外国政府狂野的征税而高兴得发疯。
所以想想这个，加上3200万的男性，再加上囤积额外的自然资源的原因 ，你就麻烦了。接下来你需要就是在这个火药桶上放上点小火星，然后，它就爆炸了。
【原文】32 Million Reasons To Fear A War With ChinaAccording to a new study, sex selection in China will create an excess 32 million boys of reproductive age in China over the coming generation.
NYT: This disparity seems to surpass that of any other country, they said — a finding, they wrote, that was perhaps unsurprising in light of China’s one-child policy.
They attributed the imbalance almost entirely to couples’ decisions to abort female fetuses.
The trend toward more male than female children intensified steadily after 1986, they said, as ultrasound tests and abortion became more available. “Sex-selective abortion accounts for almost all the excess males,” the paper said.

t's been said frequently that China may be the first country on earth to get old before it gets rich, simply due to the one-child-per-family policy.
But this huge male-female gap has scary geopolitical implications. Let's face it, a nation full of single males is bound to be dangerous and volatile, with a voracious desire to sublimate sexual frustration into bigger and bigger toys: guns and missiles. That's what single males the world over gravitate towards, and our best hope is that virtual reality and internet cafes full of first-person shooting games does the trick. But we doubt it will. Many will hope to graduate towards the real thing.
Beyond that, there are other reasons to fear that a war with China may eventually be in the cards. Ever heard of something called "taxation without representation"? Yeah, we had a war about it here. As we attempt to inflate our way out of debt, we're essentially taxing those who save our dollars. Turns out, most of them are in China. And the Chinese might not be crazy about being aggressively taxed by a foreign government.
So take that, add the 32 million single males, and throw in some natural resource hoarding for good measure and you got trouble. Then all you need is a small sparking of the powder keg, and it's on.
