Hey, hola, hi i know y'all are wondering what is this post about, well, it's just a simple rant of stuff that's related to the work and the themes i am working on, really.

I changed a few bits of my profile again and in consideration of a confession, I've added the quote, "Crime isn't gender specific and Morality isn't victim specific.". If you've been following my work, "Second Chances", you see it in one of the more recent chapters.

In summary, inhumane crimes (regardless of the type) against innocent lives isn't gender specific─it's not always a girl, it could be a boy too. And I know you're probably like, "That doesn't happen, you're just making things up!" Ask your male friends. They either went through it or know someone, even if it was through a mutual friend who went through stuff.

And morality isn't victim specific─you cannot blame victims for not being morale and either walking away from the said situation or talking about it.

Ex: physical/verbal domestic violence, after marriage... people would generally portray/visualize the female to be the victim, not the male.

Think of all crimes you'd think could only be possible on one gender and try REALLY hard to see the flip version, some instances will be tougher, cause, well, selection bias meets cognitive bias.

There's a societal conditioning that's so deeply ingrained, it can be difficult to see beyond the stereotypes and assumptions. It's about time someone changed that.

I'd love a detailed discussion on your views on this if anyone is interested!

On that note, I'd also like to thank TechRiddhipratim for coloring this illustration for me. I made the template on Canva and they colored it, really love how it's bringing the theme-art to life 🤩

I posted two chapters of Second Chances since they'd be the last updates for a while.

Chapter 46 is up and so is a Prelude chapter, "Labyrinth of deceit", right after Prologue, which is a snapshot of events that shape the story.

I've gotten many reviews telling that there's not enough foreshadowing WELL this is my attempt! ^^"

ALSO- I'm going to edit chapter format in initial chapters, add some quotes at the end of every chapter and... INTRODUCE CHAPTER TITLES, YAY!

I've come up with a bunch of whimsical chapter titles that may not exactly relate to the tale but they're a mini puzzle for you to figure out winks
