Of Femicide Suicide & Why Women Cheat On Their Partners

Passion sometimes causes men to kill and commit suicide at the sight of unfaithfulness.

Femicide suicide is the harshest and most unthinkable form of gender based violence. Popularly referred to as ‘passion killings’ in Botswana, femicide suicide is when the male kills his female partner in an intimate relationship and commits suicide thereafter.

When husbands are perpetually absent in the home, busy with work and rarely create time for their relationship or kids, some women cheat because of the lack of affection, love and conversation in such a relationship. From the lens of most women, quality time with their husbands and attention from them constitutes love to some extent.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
