While reading some articles I found this one, to me it's disgusting because of pictures in the article, but on the other hand it's article from Seul Times(and we know who runs newspapers) and it's propaganda against China and good example of manipulation so that Axis of evil could attack China for these "monstrosities", but the question is if it's true or lie?. It could be truth that is useful for propaganda against China. I just wanted to share it with you and here your opinion. Here it is(I didn't put pictures but there is a link, I warn you pictures are very disturbing):

Chinese Eat Baby Soup for Sex

Some of the Chinese people are known to be eating babies and the news circulated through the internet or via Email communication is shocking the world.An Email report received by The Seoul Times confirmed that news with several vivid and appalling pictures of human embryos fetuses being made into a soup for human consumption.
The report went on. A town in the southern province of Canton (Guangdong) is now on trend taking baby herbal soup to increase overall health and stamina and the power of sexual performance in particular. he cost in China currency approximately $ 4000 (it is about Rs2000).A factory manager was interviewed and he testified that it is effective because he is a frequent customer.It is a delicacy whereby expensive herbs are added to boil the baby with chicken meat for eight hours of boiling and steaming.He pointed to his second wife next to him. She is 19 years old. The 62-year-old man testified that they have sex everyday.After waiting for a couple of weeks he took this reporter to the restaurant when he was informed by restaurant manager that the spare rib soup (local code for baby soup) was now available. This time it was a couple who have two daughters and this third one was confirmed to be a daughter again. So the couple aborted the baby which was five months old.
Those baby who is close to be born and die naturally costs 2000 in China currency. Those aborted ones cost a few hundreds in China currency.Those couples who did not want to sell dead babies, placentas can be accepted also for couple of hundreds.
One local reporter was quoted as saying that this is the problem arising from Chinese taking too much attention in health or is the backfire effect when China introduced one child in a family policy.This heinous crimes rise from the fact that majority of Chinese people prefer to have male babies and the poor families end up selling their female babies.Dead babies can be purchased in Taiwan for 70 US dollars for being used as grilled delicacies.

I know for a fact that the Chinese believe that the mother should consume the placenta after birthing to replenish what was lost (qi and blood). However this is not such a strange practice because most animals in nature do the same. Placenta can also be obtained in the "herbal market". With the desperation of parents in poverty seeking "one" boy for their family, would it go to far to sell female fetuses? I'm not sure. Chinese culture is very big on virility and they've managed to find all sorts of ways to enhance it. If anyone is actually doing this (that is making and eating the soup), I imagine it must be the same mentality as those who perpetrate the sex slave trade of young girls or sadistic abuse...those without conscience?

Then what is the goal of the article? Instigating abhorence for the Chinese? Human rights issues? Sensationalism?
Difficult to say.
