Line 44:
* This trope is the entirety of [[Oxygen]]'s ''Snapped''. Most episodes covers a [[Real Life]] case of an abused and/or cheated-on woman who killed her husband (sometimes father). They try not to paint the women in a sympathetic light, but the show still has a "You go girl" kind of feel.
** Sometimes the husband is a saint and the woman is simply tired of being married but doesn't want to go through a divorce, or wants his life insurance policy, or the woman was actually a sociopath. These episodes don't count, though - they're just plain ordinary murder and not relevant to this trope. Women ''do'' sometimes kill people for reasons other than "bad men".
* This is the setup for the Roald Dahl short story "
* Cher's ''Dark Lady''.
* [[Lil' Kim]] has killed at least 2 boyfriends in her songs.
