Myra Hindley - Cunt!

Cunt




I watched the recent series on Hindley on Channel 5. Really interesting how it challenged the stereotypical notions of female criminals. 

Hindley was often portrayed as a victim but was a very violent woman thanks to her mother who was violent and initiated domestic violence.  Hindley was a woman who was taught to be violent against boys by her father. 

Hindley was a coward who tried to blame her violence on her father rather than take the blame for her own actions.  She would invariably initiate violence against males.  No lessens or boundaries regarding gender were discussed. She chose the first victim of her and Bradys' sick and twisted vile crimes.  Gender is replaced by evil when discussing female crimes as though somehow only evil could be the cause of this. Of course we all know, women are capable of anything and not just the good.
