Wouldn't a girl carry on the family line, too? What's with this son bias?

Well yes, but I myself would like a son. Also, many people have the general viewpoint that a girl always changes their name so as such the 'family name' as it were ends. This isn't always the case, obviously, but sometimes it does mean the end of the family name, especially if there's just 1 child. But by the same token 1 son might not have a child or marry etc. so the family name still ends. I'm not saying that that means the child is no longer part of the family, nor do I agree with such a viewpoint. I'm just saying some people are of that opinion.
