Ofcourse, it is the truth --although the author had to resort to stories from mother and grandmother to make her case --and found no readily available witnesses.
   
  On the other hand, she made it a point to mention that her husband: 
   "I am of Indian descent but my husband is a blonde, blue-eyed and fiercely proud Scotsman. He was gob-smacked. I felt deflated - did the doctor really think that I would terminate the pregnancy if I was told a girl was on the way?"
   
  Does she mean that only Indians (brown skinned -who are not blonde and white) are ant-females? Is that why she chose a white husband? And is that why BBC carried the report?
