    Why is it only "fRiDgInG" if a female character dies?

    Blame Gail Simone for that.

    Althought, fridging is also used with male characters sometimes, is basically kill or torture someone to give another character angst.

    It isn't. "Fridging" is pointlessly killing a character just to cause another angst. Happens mostly to women, but can happen to men too.
