Ok, in terms of American law... you have first and second degree murder. I basically would only support capital punishment in the worst cases of 1st degree murder. I expect someone might find an example from 1840 of a "woman" committing such a crime, but in general women do not ever commit first degree murder - all cases of women committing murder are basically either involving very strong aggrivating factors, or diminished responsibility by reason of insanity.
When we talk about the worst criminals, wicked murderers who society cannot bare to allow free - these are ALWAYS male. These are the people that I support capital punishment in regard to. And I would hardly hold Singapore up as an example of a free society.
