Unpopular opinion: I think the issue of “femicides” are literally overrated. Here’s what I mean.

r/

What i mean is that i think femicides are over represented when sometimes women are just killed. It’s not the fault of “machisimo” or men hating women.

Sometimes people are assholes and hit people or just lose their shit.

Statistics show both men and women commit all forms of violence disproportionately towards men then men or women being violent or killing women yet you dont hear people cry androcide.

    Women are treated like children in alot of ways, thats why when it comes to stuff like Teachers sleeping with their underage students women arent held to the same standards. Or what about when a Girl is Lesbian? no one cares much thats because women have it easier in modern society.

    Thats bc most males get killed by other males (you put that women commit disproportionaly violence against males, which is false). Like the vast majority of male murder victims were killed by males, so its hard to argue that they did it bc they hated males.

    However, most women are also mostly killed by men, which makes it easier to argue that it was bc they hated women.

    I agree that not all female murder is bc sex related reasons tho. A lot have other reasons and feminicide should not be some authomatic tag to it

    What world are you living in? In the world I live in, men are the main perpetrators of all violent crimes, be it against other men or women. lol

    Femicides have a specific cause, relating to domestic and/or gender violence.

    Lmao. Sometimes women are just killed. It just happens. Women are killed by whom? By an omnicient force? Tell me who kills women. Tell me why do you think women are killed. Why do you think men kill women? They just can’t help it? Or maybe men love women so much that they need to kill them?

    As someone who has studied law: If a traficante has a criminal case underway and a key witness to his crimes is a woman and he orders a hit on her, that is not considered feminicide, because she was not killed for being a woman, her womanhood is irrelevant to that crime which she was the victim of, it would’ve happen regardless if she were a man instead.

    But when a husband kills a wife that crime is done specifically because she is his wife, and in more than 80% of the cases it is done so to ex-wives and ex-girlfriends because the culprit does not accept that the relationship is over. It is not only because of her gender but specially because of the power dynamics caused by this gender relation.

    A son killing a mother? Not feminicide.
    A male worker killing his boss who is a woman? Depends. Is there other passional reasons related to work, bullying, harassment, etc, if not, could be feminicide.
    A woman killing another woman, if they were in an amorous relationship? Feminicide.

    So your opinion is not just vaguely morally wrong or stupid, it is also legally unfounded and materially wrong.
