You know if opportunistic women can use mental illness as an excuse to commit crimes, then surely people can use women's mental health as an excuse for sexism. After all, a company can deny women employees promotions because of their mental health. Accused rapists can question the mental health of their victims to discredit them. This case opens a can of worms.

Yes --- it seems if every time a woman murders it's just because she went crazy --- but a man is held responsible for his murders because he doesn't have the same tendency to go crazy, then why should child be awarded to mothers in child custody battles?

And those worms from that can came from the apple that Eve ate in the Garden of Eden, oh so long ago.

I say "Back to the Future" and repeal the 19th. Amendment; women's suffrage. Things may not improve above human nature, but at least it won't have the Constitution's seal of approval.
