In his recent article, Carl Blesch quotes an article that stated:
"but two recent books show that men are treated quite well on
one important occasion: when they kill women."

I read an article in the Toronto Globe and Mail over the summer
chronicling the ways "Crimes of Passion" were treated in Latin 
America.  As I recall, men who killed their wives and sweet-hearts,
in cold blood, routinely receive very light sentences, suspended 
sentences, in some Latin American countries.  Of course, women
who kill their husbands can expect to have the book thrown at them.
