No crime called Femicide | DW News

I also want to say that living now in this world as a single woman, I have gotten increasing amounts of aggression by men towards me. Much rage and anger, not provoked. As if I, as a woman, had no right to be self-sufficient. Raising my daughter alone, I became the target of a hate crime because I was working and providing. Was it easy? No. But, I did it.<br>Also, rewatch the video. Eunice was LEAVING her husband.. Operative word .<br>LEAVING. And then she is killed.<br>It is femicide.

Femicide. Thank you for this word.<br>Happened to me in the US, and I managed to survive. He admitted what he did, but never went to jail because authorities &quot; messed up&quot;. He continued to stalk my daughter and me, and even get others to hurt us, although I had long ago left him.<br>America is filled with this, too, but it is kept hidden.<br>When a woman is killed, there may be a short article in the paper. Men who stalk are let go, and are &quot; on probation( set free)&quot; and told not to bother the woman.<br>This country wants,to pretend it doesn&#39;t happen here. It does.<br>How ridiculous is that.<br>I applaud you for standing up, for giving it a name, for demanding justice. <br>Thank you.

For everyone disagreeing with their message:<br><br>When it gets to the point where women and children are disproportionately killed and targeted, what else do we call it? This is bringing awareness. nobody is stating that&#39;s only girls/women are being killed. Instead, it&#39;s highlighting that women and girls are in fact being targeted and killed at an alarming rate.

PLEASE don&#39;t adopt &quot;white&quot; people&#39;s ideas, feminism, gender wars or the like... It doesn&#39;t work in their society and it WILL DO WORSE DAMAGE IN YOUR SOCIETY. Killing a woman because she is a woman, then why is he not killing women outside of his house?

A similar case happened in Pakistan. A successful, thirty year old woman was killed, was found hanging with her hands tied behind her. <br>In India, a sixteen year old girl was r@ped and killed in a bus. A dalit girl committed suicide because she was bullied for her caste. A dalit PhD scholar was made to scrub floors because of her caste. <br>The world is becoming more and more dangerous for women daily.

I am in total disagreement with reducing the killing of the mother simply because she was a woman. Come on! Are we really this shallow? Do better. Stop simply pandering to the West’s narrative. So many women in the US are killed by their spouses , do they simply say oh she was killed because she’s a woman. Stop this nonsense. Yes a woman was murdered. There is a bigger underlying issue that needs to be addressed in the country and how the men are brought up than by simply trivializing to a woman being killed is solely because of her gender.

Kusema ukweli sisi wa kenya we blame kibaki wakati wa 2000 yeye hujaweka hiyo law kwa constitution ya 2010 sisi si tumechukua mese yake na hakusema ukweli international media where you&#39;re seven people unasema yeah itaongezea next year jude kona ilection kumbuka hivyo kikambak employment kusema ukweli hiyo tax iko useless tu binti kwanga pesa pekee yake hiyo ni uongo 😂😂😂

So the husband murdered his wife in a homicide. So he is a murderer. Very much not good. But making a elevated claim that she was killed specifically because of her gender requires evidence and even then it would still be a subgroup of homicide and not a new category. Otherwhise you&#39;re asserting male homicide victims are somehow worth less? In fact you already do: You show someone who wants to fund help for women specifically and refuses to help against murder.
