Gender selection (also called sex selection) is a medical technique used by prospective parents who wish to choose the sex of their offspring. This technique is performed through sperm separation or genetic testing. The embryos with the desired sex are then implanted into the woman's uterus. This issue is considered controversial because some religions do not accept this method, and it is not entirely common and accepted yet in society. In the media, the medical community is trying to encourage gender selection and make it more common and acceptable for couples who wish to choose to select the sex of their baby.
