UK: Husband says estranged wife drowned 'terrified' two-year-old twins in 27 minutes in revenge because they'd split after giving up lavish expat life in Qatar. OP: In the UK a lot of mothers murder their children but get sentenced for manslaughter.

Sorry for going tangential, but have you noticed that feminist activists who advocate the gender neutral language politics (change manholes to maintenance holes, etc) never ask to change manslaughter or manhandling to something else? Only the good or favourable words...

Of course the BBC has to lede with "...[mum had] bout of 'acute depression'"

Same old story — women are analysed and medicalised; whilst men are demonised and criminalised.
