Most, but not all, serial killers are male. Many of them are fueled by violent sexual fantasies and have a pathological hatred of women. And as many of you probably already know, many of these guys were abused as children. I can understand why some of them would have issues with their mothers, but think of the many women out there who would also have plenty of reasons to hate men. There have been plenty of girls and women who have been victimized by men, whether it be their fathers, other male relatives, or perfect strangers. Also, men still hold most of the power. If anything, one would think that there are more women who would have a good reason to hate men than there are men who have a good reason to hate women. And yes, there are some women who are violent and hate men and there are some female serial killers. However, most female serial killers kill for profit or because of some mental disorder like Munchausen's syndrome by proxy rather than to act out violent fantasies.
