> unrelated but didn't india forcibly sterilize millions of men?   no, not really. there was one very powerful and influential son of a very powerful prime minister who was trying to slow the massive population explosion by "encouraging" sterilisation and there were instances where people were indeed sterilised when they didn't want to be but this was in the mid to late 70s, the government was thrown out of power partly as a result of those shenanigans and it was never attempted again.
