Interesting when you consider "androcide" (the antonym of femicide) is NOT a criminal offense in any country in the world, and is only a war crime if it is the specific targeting of enemy boys who may grow up to be combatants.
Murder is murder, homicide is none gender specific (Hom being from the Greek homo meaning of the same type or species, not the Latin Homo meaning male)

There are constant demonstrations in France against this. Generally it is done by partners and the punishment is light over there.

I guess I am from the dark ages. I have never heard of femicide before. I know women are mistreated, but I didn't know they were killed simply for being women.

Being a woman is a condition? Oh no.. is there treatment for this condition?

Many countries allow HONOR KILLING of women by families or husbands.... while prohibited by law in other countries HONOR KILLING does not seem to be as commonplace outside the borders of THE SAVIOUR el salvador

Well I just learned a new word for murder.
