Eleven-Year-Old Girl Slashes Classmate's Throat
CPM writes "Story here "The killing appeared especially shocking because of the age of the children involved and the fact that both were girls. "
The age of the killer can legitimately be referred to as "shocking", but there is nothing shocking about a female killer. The shocking part is that it made the news and that she was actually identified as female. There are many stories I see where a violent female is referred to as a: coworker, friend, acquiantence, classmate, or other gender neutral term. Many times even after reading the entire article, the gender of the perp is still not divulged - which is a near guarantee that it is female. They also had to throw in a couple mentions of young boy killers to show that young killers are supposed to be male."
