		The two aspects of sex control – it is control of sex, and it is a form of control of offspring – locate the deeper significance of this practice in two important human contexts: the meaning of sexuality, and the nature of procreation and family relations.

	Is there a reliable way to tell my unborn baby's sex?
		There are lots of traditional ways of predicting the sex of a baby and you have probably come across some of them since you got pregnant.
		The truth is that the only effective ways of identifying the sex of your baby during pregnancy are ultrasound scanning, amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS).
		A baby's sex can be determined from about 18 weeks of pregnancy, but do bear in mind that, on the day of your scan, your baby may be facing the wrong way or have its legs crossed so that the genital area cannot be seen!
