The introduction of the criminal offence of the aggravated murder of a female person into the Croatian Criminal Code represents an important normative step in recognising gender-based violence. Femicide is neither a crime of passion nor an isolated act of violence. Rather, it most often represents the final stage of a prolonged pattern of gender-based violence, preceded by humiliation, isolation, coercive control, and the gradual escalation of abusive behaviour.

The existence of pornography in today’s society necessarily necessarily limits women's consent and autonomy.
