I was reading an article about female serial killers. According to the article, women have to kill twice as many people as men, in order to be recognized. And, many female serial killers go unrecognized because they simple don’t kill enough people to strike terror into the hearts of the populous as a whole.
With the exception of Lizzy Borden, most female serial killers are in the medical profession and use either medications or suffocation on their victims. And because of this, most of these deaths are presumed to be normal or natural. Therefore, the serial killer goes unrecognized.
It is people like the BTK killer or the Unibomber that get all of the attention.
So, once again, it is the women who never get the recognition that they deserve.
