Though the term was originally coined by Gail Simone in 1999 as "Women in refrigerators" (In reference to a plotline where [the green lantern] found her newly introduced [girlfriend] sliced up in a fridge) though it may still refer to the same mistreatment of female characters, it has become less gendered over time and [the definition] has become less niche to involve somewhat characterized cast members as well as new ones. Some prominent examples of fridging include: Uncle ben every single character to date deadpool every single orphaned characters' parents
