I guess part of it is because I am a female and so many of these gender based abortions are used to abort females. There is a cultural bias towards male children in so many societies that woman feel a female child isn't good enough.
I know I would want to know the gender of my child ahead of time but for the purpose of eliminating it if it turned out to be the 'wrong' gender.
Choice is choice but I find this disturbing never the less.
