      This chart just looks like a cool tidbit of info, but sex ratios have real implications http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1569153/ …pic.twitter.com/yeL9rEUdv5

      In 1960 there were 100 men in the UAE for every 100 women. In 2010 there were 240 men for every 100 women. http://knoema.com/atlas/United-Arab-Emirates/topics/Demographics/Population/Sex-ratio …

      Why is it bad when sex ratios are way off? Violence, sex trafficking, child marriages, are all linked to it

      @BookOfTamara Well the UAE is easy to explain - immigrant blue-collar labor - obviously all male.

          @i_contemplate_ the explanations are generally stable: sex-selective abortion, war, migration. It's the results people don't seem to grok

          @BookOfTamara Again, the UAE is a special case as majority of the population is immigrants and there are very few 'permanent' immigrants.

          @i_contemplate_ yes, no one really mentions the UAE in conversations about the dire effects of imbalance

          @BookOfTamara The Persian Gulf in general is this way - UAE, Saudi, Qatar, Oman. I think the dire problems are in India and China

          @i_contemplate_ pretty much the result of sex selective abortions. If I'm not mistaken there's a village India with polygyny, right?

          @BookOfTamara The press loves these unrepresentative single examples lol. Yes sex selective abortions. They are supposed to be illegal.

          @i_contemplate_ emphasis on "supposed to be" I guess
