I think there is a pretty clear distinction, in that wide spread sex selective abortion results in a skewed gender population which causes obvious negative long term problems. It is very reasonable for a person to look at a society and say “we need increase the number of girls born”. We might have to discuss what is the best way to reach that goal but it is a reasonable goal to have. While I think saying “we need increase the number of people born with Down Syndrome” is never a morally defensible position.
