They will enter a "state of affect" and submit. And then they will cry for the rest of their lives.

If we judge by that, then most murders are committed in a state of affect, one way or another. "I had no money, everyone cheated and ruined me, I fell into depression and robbed," "He looked at me sideways, I got scared, my natural self-defense mechanisms kicked in, and I killed him," and so on. Raskolnikov was also in a state of affect when he killed the old woman's relative. And he didn't just kill the old woman for no reason; he did it under the influence of external circumstances, poverty, high interest rates, and so on. So, he wasn't to blame, right? If the old woman had given him a loan at a lower interest rate, he wouldn't have killed her, right? That's how we end up with an absurdity...

Currently, for example, in India, a number of amendments to the laws are being considered that could protect women from their husbands' infidelity. Rumor has it that, for now, it involves relatively short prison sentences. Some skeptics are already saying that the punishment for husbands is not strict enough – a man will receive only a few years in prison for effectively ruining his wife's honor.
