Broken Hearted
The Woman's Outlook claimed to be "The Leading Filipino Woman's Magazine" in the 1920s. It was the magazine of the National Federation of Women's Clubs. Published in English and Spanish, it was edited by Trinidad Fernandez Legarda, while Pura Villanueva Kalaw was the editor of the Spanish section. The magazine included educational texts for women written, many of them by men, such as the history of the sewing machine, an article on "Mixing housework with pleasure", or stories of exemplary lives such as that of Francisca Tirona de Benítez, who passed "From The Kitchen To The Executive Chair Of A Big Institution".
In addition, literary texts written by women were often included, such as the poem in question, which is, like many of the Filipino poems of the time, about love.
In 1926 the Spanish section was shorter than that written in English, and almost all the sections were written by Pura Villanueva Kalaw, with the exception of American literary works translated into Spanish for the magazine.
