Joan of Arc, Salem, Spanish Inquisition...
Any events within one hundred years or so, other than the Holocaust or perhaps the genocide of the First Americans? Just hoping to keep things relative.
I'd like to think we don't hang young women, or take them to soccer stadiums and blow their heads off in front of men for sport, or force female circumcisions to take place, all for no other reason than the fact they were born without a male sex organ.
I mean, two of the three you mention involved only women losing their lives. The analogy might work for the sexism involved.
I wonder if 16 year old Iranian boys get hanged for "smart mouths".
