Content Warnings: Murder, Misogyny, Invisible labor
Dear Shugarrr,
I stumbled on a recent news story that happened in a close community. A woman who was arrested for murder.
Since then and up till this writing, I have been wondering; What could she have been thinking? What was her mental state of mind? What really happened? Was it intentional or an accident?
Till now, no details have been released, which saddens me. In my world where mental health is a myth, where every woman is expected to do it all alone, the pregnancy, child birth and raising the child. A world where speculations and rumours are translated as facts.
I’m sad that we might never know the truth of how this incident came to be, and worse, how to prevent it from happening.
Yours truly
D
