I guess the difference between a man raping because of testosterone and a woman killing a child from postpartum depression is that the postpartum depression is a real and recognized cause of psychosis

@john_darksoul not saying it's okay just not exactly the same
Postpartum depression isn't real
@coon maybe, I don't know, but doctors seem to think it's real right now.
@coon @sun Well depression (being in a depressed state) is real, and post partum (the period after giving birth) is as well, so post partum depression is just not a surprising thing, it's a difficult period for everyone involved, including the mother.
I don't know if it's anything more special than that.

Real - maybe probably not to that extent certainly no valid reason
Recognized - yeah but isn't SIDs also? We all know authority figures will make up excuses for inconvenient truths.

@rebootbrain A lot of people are suggesting now that some SIDS is just infanticide
@sun @rebootbrain I remember velartrill was talking about this on here ca. 5 years ago
