    And how do you know that it had anything to do with their gender? Asking because I see many people call random murders, or rather anything that was not a multi-kill, femicides.

      Why so much fighting over a word for women being killed of misogyny? Odd thing to be defensive about. It feels like some people here think even giving women a word for being killed by misogynists is giving them too much.

        Because blaming every murder of a woman on misogyny is just as stupid as not acknowledging it at all. That’s my point.

            No one here, afaik. But it’s a common practice I see under a lot of posts, and I wanted to ask why.
