A friend and I had this conversation the other day and
she suggested I post it on my blog for your thoughts *grin*

Personally speaking, I think women make better
villains. More conniving and better at getting in the hero’s head. Perhaps also
it’s due to the view that women are more emotive, and thus expected to be
empathetic—so that the view of them as the vicious monster who deliberately
feeds on their victims torments, feels that much more sinuously evil.

Share your thoughts! I’d love to hear them
What a great question. Male villains have capacity for great violence, whilst women have the emotional punch.
