Many crime shows focus on cases or scenarios where Women are the primary targets of sexualized crimes and murder. Should these shows receive more "mature" ratings as to deter children and impressionable youths from seeing these shows?
Yes, definitely.
Yes, but it's a parents choice to show their children these programs.
No, children should be allowed to watch whatever they want.
Should there be restrictions put in place to limit the amount of violent content directed towards Females in television programs?
Yes, it should be limited to an absolutely minimum, as to not hinder creative freedom.
Yes, it should be set to a minimum and networks pay a premium to offer more violent content.
Programs containing violence directed at Women should be banned from basic programming.
No, television networks should have the freedom to create as much violent content directed towards Women as they want.
Should films that feature violence directed towards Women be given an immediate "R" rating?

No, that seems too severe. If so, why?

The Woman, and I hope She'll be saved. If so, why?

Neither, because I like tragedy.
