Gendercide or Gender-related killing is the systematic murder of members of a specific gender. The term is related to the general concepts of assault and murder against victims due to their gender, with violence against men and women being problems which are dealt with by human rights organizations. The term 'gendercide' is similar to the term 'genocide' because gendercide is a form of mass murder; however, the perpetrators of gendercide solely target members of one gender. Politico-military frameworks have historically inflicted militant-governed divisions between femicide and androcide; gender-selective policies increase violence on gendered populations due to their socioeconomic significance. Certain cultural and religious sentiments have also contributed to multiple instances of gendercide across the globe.
