This article doesn't provide much information about what happened. Who called police? What did he die from?

Not much here.

There is a good example of the empathy gap here because of the similar circumstances to a case a few weeks ago in the same city.

In this instance a 19 year old female stranger killed a young man. So far we have had just one follow up article beginning with:

'A young woman charged over the death of an Indian student she met on a dating app has been described as “lovely girl” with a "troubled childhood".'

When a 19 year old male stranger killed a young woman. We saw:

- a police media release expressing sympathy for the victim and stating that people needed to be careful being howled down as victim blaming with the premier of Victoria among others stating that women should not have to be mindful of their own safety, men just needed to change their behaviour.

- a candlelit vigil with thousands of people

- a dozen articles in newspapers about gendered violence

- calls for a curfew on men in a previously serious newspaper

- calls for men to cross the street so women don't feel uncomfortable

- calls for men to call out men, whatever that means.

- a federal senator saying on national TV: women are sick of men being unable to control themselves and behaving like pigs and morons

It's ridiculous
