A woman victimized by the guilt of killing her husband

It is simply amazing to see how low men’s status in this country could get. Newsweek is happy to discuss whether the woman who killed her so-called “abusive” husband (standard label for all men who were killed by wives in the US) could recover from PTSD that allegedly caused her to commit the action. Note that the entire article is filed with concern for Mary Winkler and how she could cope and recover from PTSD after walking free from prison. Gaining custody of her children and normal return to society are their next goals for Mary. Not a word on the man killed by the woman allegedly suffering from PTSD.

Uber-feminist-friendly Newsweek even notched up its feminist-friendly credential by showing its concern that the very act of killing a human being - husband – could add to the stress that murderer would feel. Get this - FEMINISTS EVEN WANT TO SAVE WOMEN FROM THE STRESS OF KILLING OTHER HUMAN BEINGS – maybe they can start a new programme in the women’s shelter, on how to kill husbands without any remorse or emotional consequence – just like killing a fly! – and feel good about, feel empowered by it.
