Interesting in that, flipping it around, there doesn’t appear to be another country with as large a disparity.
Armenia is #1 with 55% women:

Improving relations between China and Russia/Eastern Europe is the solution to both countries’ demographics problems.
Please explain how
Opposing gender ratios, supposing that a gender imbalance were the source of their problems.
Somehow I doubt it’s the gender imbalance that is the issue, as opposed to the underlying socioeconomic situations of each country
You uh … not understand what the word “supposing” means? Nevermind the later use of the word “were”. Where did you get the idea that I actually believe this idea?
Someone asked what another commenter meant, and I explained it. My personal opinion was not solicited, but I implied my doubt anyways. How you and one other missed it is beyond me.
The increase of male births can be linked to a historical preference for sons, a decline in birth rates driven by gender selection preferences and advancements in technology, such as ultrasound, that facilitate gender selection, according to the report. The report also emphasized that the prolonged period of a skewed sex ratio at birth since the 1970s has had a significant impact on marriage rates. Regions with high marriage rate imbalances are characterized by particularly skewed sex ratios at birth during the 1980s and 1990s.
So basically a lot of people saw a vagina in the ultrasound and decided quit and restart the level.
Isn’t that what people said about China?
It’s happening in China, South Korea, Vietnam. Probably you can find more examples.
India as well.
How strange
This isn’t the only country that’s an example of this.
Fair enough
and now they’ve fucked over their preferred sons because in doing so they left them maidenless.
Why is there a preference for sons? Is it because they would traditionally get better jobs and take care of their parents or…?
Carry on the name?
I know That’s a fairly common experience elsewhere. I have a cousin who is a fourth of his name. I think he or his wife understood the twisted family dynamic that came with playing favorites like that because they didn’t carry on the tradition when they had their son.
I assume this increase in men being single has led to increases in male loneliness and subsequently the massive chauvinist backlash and rightward shift that’s been happening in S. Korea.
The chauvinism was already there, that’s why they have more male children.
