story reads like a real-life version of "Downton Abbey," the hit period 
drama about the family of an earl who has no direct heir 
to inherit his title.Like the fictional character Lord Grantham, the aristocrat 
has three daughters but no sons. In order for his title to 
live on in future generations, the 69-year-old has no choice but to 
pass it to a distant relative abroad, someone he has not even 
met."It's a sadness in life that my wife and I never had 
a son," said the viscount, who lives with his wife in the 
countryside west of London. "But I suppose I would rather someone inherit 
it than have it dying out.""Downton Abbey" may be set in the 
early 20th century and its characters may be fictional, but the effects 
of a centuries-old rule that puts boys before girls are very real 
to Torrington and hundreds of hereditary peers in modern Britain. It's still 
a man's world when it comes to inheritance among Britain's peerage, an 
arc
 w confusion and resentment over inheritance 
among existing heirs and their siblings.Titles can't be split, and splitting 
a mansion isn't always a good idea either."Inheriting a great draughty mansion 
with obligations is not everybody's idea of fun in 2013. Even worse 
is to inherit a minority interest in it -- for example, a 
split between five heirs," said Roderick Balfour, an earl who has four 
daughters and no son.Balfour recently wrote to the government to propose 
a compromise: A title should pass to first-born daughters, but only in 
cases when there is no son. It's not exactly gender equality, he 
said, but it would at least present a workable solution to families 
like his.Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has said he was "sympathetic" 
to extending the royal reforms to titles, but the government has indicated 
it isn't going to act soon to tackle the issue -- not 
least because few Britons are likely to rally behind moves to preserve 
the nobility.James Gray, a campaigner for the anti-monarchy group Republic, 
concedes that the international success of "Downton Abbey" -- which has 
won millions of fans in the U.S. and elsewhere -- may signal 
a widespread fascination with the lives of blue bloods, but that doesn't 
mean people at home admire or want to emulate a crusty upper 
class.He raised another point: Since monarchy and aristocracy are inherently 
unfair and discriminatory, some may see achieving gender equality in those 
institutions as r
