A Florida man allegedly killed his wife and shot seven other women at a restaurant Sunday night, in a crime tragically reminiscent of George Sodini's 2009 gym rampage.

A Florida man allegedly killed his wife and shot seven other women at a restaurant Sunday night, in a crime tragically reminiscent of George Sodini's 2009 gym rampage.

A German company called First Androids [NSFW] has created a sex doll that breathes and has a pulse. It's just like a real woman, only with no brain or corresponding ability to reject douchebags.
The gym where George Sodini went on his shooting rampage reopened this weekend, and today, we look at a book that some believe could help prevent future violence there and everywhere: Gavin de Becker's The Gift of Fear.

Would legalizing sex work have prevented George Sodini's gym rampage? That's the claim Dan Savage makes in his column this week.
CBS reports today that gym gunman George Sodini had been questioned by police prior to his murders, and the Times of London offers a possible parallel to his situation — the phenomenon of "love shyness."
In today's New York Times, Bob Herbert argues that "we would become much more sane, much healthier, as a society if we could bring ourselves to acknowledge that misogyny is a serious and pervasive problem." Some of his commenters disagree.
Gunman George Sodini may have entered a Pittsburgh gym alone on Tuesday night. But he was part of a string of mass murderers of women — and a loose-knit group of misogynists who encourage manipulation and hatred.
George Sodini killed three women and injured at least ten others at a Pittsburgh-area gym before shooting himself yesterday. His online diary reveals an obsession with "hoes" who refused to date him — and a connection to more "mainstream" misogynists.
