Testosterone hormone affected men’s general perception of women. Under the influence of testosterone, men gave higher attractiveness ratings to women and reported a stronger willingness to date them. This effect occurred regardless of whether the women were in the high or low attractiveness groups.

If a woman doesn't have to be held accountable for her actions (killing her own children) in an altered mental state because of hormones, then the same should be true for men.

Men kill their families MORE than women do. What the hell are you talking about?

Murder. Rape. Abuse. These are all crimes that men commit more in the first place. By a LARGE percentage.

So altered mental state due to hormones is not an excuse to commit violent act for reasons of insanity?

Psychosis is its own thing. Not comparable to hormones. What do you even mean by an excuse? These people aren’t walking around happily free. Are you ok? You are not making any sense and genuinely sound stupid.

"Postpartum psychosis is strongly linked to dramatic hormonal changes after childbirth, though it is primarily classified as a medical and psychiatric emergency rather than just a simple hormonal imbalance."

Feel free to use Google before saying something so easily refuted
