Why Are Some Women Attracted to Serial Killers?

the jurogan experience do you ever do a demographic breakdown of who watched like does netflix have a democrat demographic breakdown of who watches those crime shows because it's mostly women isn't it anecdotally that's what everybody says there was a funny bit on saturday night live the other night that was like you know what what do ladies do when they're home alone you know wait wait wait you know then they like throw on the murder shows yeah why is that i don't know it's a weird thing and when we were making night stalker there would like we would get to the the point in the interview where it's finally you know i would i would ask everybody like okay so for some reason or another this guy becomes like the jim morrison of serial killers because like when he's paraded through the courtroom all of a sudden he's got these like groupies and fans and they're sending him and i had gotten access to all of the like naked pictures that the girls are sending in you know because this author had written a book about him had all this stuff and i was like and you always have to kind of ask that awkward question of like so why does this guy become this sort of crazy sex symbol object of des you know obscure object of desire and it's always like kind of particularly with the you know the the women who are being interviewed but everybody and nobody quite has an answer is it the bad boy thing is it the celebrity thing but this is somebody that like you know i think as one of the people said this is somebody that would eat you for dinner not like you know there's no it's craziness to have any attraction to it but yet it exists you know this guy has like groupies and fans and it's very common for murderers to get murders of women to get all these propositions from women yeah very strange super strange and you know i read something about that no you know whitney cummings was actually telling me about this she said she she read that it was something that had to do with there was like a an evolutionary benefit to getting close to killers like that i think this is theoretical in what regard that the idea of it's very hard to kill someone once you have like human personal contact is that what you're saying no no no no the the act of killing someone that it's difficult to do and that it requires like someone who is to be capable of taking another person's life and to be close to that person means somehow or another you're protected by them and that they're they're willing to kill and that this is like something that existed thousands and thousands of years ago in our dna this desire to be close to killers because you were more likely to survive because there were so many killers like if you went back in time you know a few thousand years ago murder must have been like really common like when when people were sword fighting all the time and dude there's a crazy there's a crazy book on this stephen pinker wrote this book called the better angels of our nature and what he does is he tracks over time kind of the nature of violence in humanity yes and he's like okay once upon a time there's kane and abel and kane kills abel like the murder rate is like 50 so actually we've been trending up ever since then and like it literally looks at how you know over time the incidence of like violence has actually even though it doesn't seem like that dramatically decreased it does seem like that it does seem like that i think we just focus on the instances of violence because we have mass media right and it's fascinating yeah and if it bleeds it leads so but why is that you know like that's something that you know making the night stalker or even making silk road it's like why are we fascinated by the underworld you know the sort of like the worst things that people do to each other like what is it you know and and i'm you're participating in it i'm participating anytime we're watching it making it or whatever you know we are all in some way complicit in that catch new episodes of the joe rogan experience for free only on spotify watch back catalog jre videos on spotify including clips easily seamlessly switch between video and audio experience on spotify you can listen to the jre in the background by using other apps and can download episodes to save on data cost all for free spotify is absolutely free you don't have to have a premium account to watch new jre episodes you just need to search for the jre on your spotify app go to spotify now to get this full episode of the joe rogan experience
