It's amazing how can a professional solve this cases where others couldn't. Why there is so much hate towards women in US? I mean, particularly, these serial killers. Cases like this are rarely seen in South America, where violence has other drives (many times much less psychological).

Unfortunately (I am South American) I think you are wrong. Some of the most prolific serial killers have been South Smerican, but serial killers are not such a popular topic on the news here so it's not as widely known. I would think it's also logical that serial killers tend to focus on women and children because they are generally easier to overpower than another male. There is probably also a sexual component to killing and I would guess that most serial killers tend to be heterosexual, hence why they mostly target women.

  Macabre and strange list. It's missing anyone who murdered 6-9 people. For example this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rolling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rolling

  Yes. Prolific, but I wasn't talking about the number of victims but the number of produced serial killers. I know that there were (and are!) many serial killers in other countries, but what I am asking is how and why did USA produce more serial killers as a cultural and sociological phenomenon. You could say "Ok, but you don't know that and your observation can be explained, because in US they caught more of these guys while in other countries they remain unidentified". That is really hard to believe because many LE and their corresponding Investigation Divisions in the world have the same level and resources that in USA and it is really hard to loose tracks of many linked murder cases, even when they seem unrelated at first. Given enough time, data, and evidence, someone will relate those cases if they were committed by a mostly psychological-driven serial killer. I also know that they look for the easy prey (as you said, it's logical), but there's something that seems out of that dimension in this issue. I also find really hard to miss that mass-shootings in USA are something far from logical (I'm not talking about accessibility to guns, or laws and policies about guns). I apologize if I offended someone.

Question wasn't ok! Didn't mean what it seems to. Question I wanted to write was more about psychological predisposition to violence in US considering their serial killers. Maybe I didn't have my coffee on time!
