Mariticide.
Uxoricide vs. killed his wife.
Now what’s the word for killing her husband?

It also literally used to mean “Meemaw fed Peepaw rhubarb leaf pie and everybody looked the other way.” I think it was @karnythia.blacksky.app who did a brilliant thread on this one day. Mariticide rates dropped quite sharply after no-fault divorce.
I am once again begging people to understand that “women used to stay married” is not the same thing as “women used to be happy.” Usually it actually means “women used to have no money, no legal protection, no right to their own children, and a church lady judging them from three pews away.”

patricide is killing a father, mariticide is killing a husband

And if you want a return to divorce laws of old, I hope you're also ready for a return of contemporaneous mariticide rates.

Okay, but what if we kept no fault divorce AND increased mariticide rates?

Mariticide is on the menu today.

how would you prefer people on social media respond to your tale of mariticide? should i quote tweet it and tell my followers "check this shit out"?

My hot take is that GPS has reduced the rate of mariticide.
All the while said husband in the midst of yelling is driving the car with his knee, while both hands are on the map, pointing furiously, while the vehicle veers into the other lane and the children learn for the first time that they are, in fact, mortal as they see the car edge closer to a pickup.

Someone should introduce her to the concept of mariticide. #TheFilmcrowd

i had to delete my original reply and repost cuz i trusted spell check too much and didn't notice it changed my (correctly spelled) "mariticide" to "matricide" cuz for some reason it doesn't think the former is a real word?

Some people will focus on the mariticide when it should be on the entrepreneurial spirit

"Maria, you're in mourning," and the mourning is going to visit her ex for a post-mariticide debrief.

The only reason I’m going to get away with mariticide is because cops don’t know about bsky and won’t think to check here: the place I’ve confessed once a day for months.
*opens the door wearing a sheer, fur lined robe and nothing else* hello officers, my husband? an accident?
*the most dramatic faint*

And a reminder to anyone who supports this antiquated way of thinking; Not only will men have to do a lot less because women are present and capable to take over that burden in a marriage or partnership, but mariticide rates also go down. 👀🔪

As already covered Uxoricide this week, in the name of balance seems only fair to cover Mariticide too..

On my way to kill another husband for money.

I'll let you know how that goes.

well fair, but that's just regular ol' mariticide, we got that here

Bonus points to anyone who genuinely knows the meaning of both of those words without having to look them up.
January 27, 2025 at 8:26 PM
Woah, and does that mean it would be mariticide if I kill you? 🥺

The South Carolina court decision vacating Murdaugh’s convictions was a segue to bring up a “lighter subject” — my wife’s obsession with podcasts about wives killing their husbands - aka mariticide. I’ve not made it a point of contention between us.
