They need to do more research on this stuff. For example, with pedophiles, we know the top 10 professions that contain the most pedophiles because we know their MO- they choose jobs that give them easy access to children. If there are specific behavior patterns of psychopaths or sociopaths, then more rigorous research can be done to determine these things with more accuracy. I feel like this is too close to pop-psychology.
Do they do this sub-consciously or is it more of an involuntary response..

At least some do it consciously. I read an autobiography of a pedophile once for a psychology class, and the dude said he became a camp counselor so that he can pedo on some kids.

I was a cop for three years. Maybe it wasn't for me because I'm not a psychopath. I don't really see myself ever becoming a CEO, lawyer, chef, surgeon or anything else in the top 10.

You notice most of those professions are very ego driven, and sociopaths are extremely self-centered since they lack empathy. They find the wiring in their brains are all messed up.

One thing studies and medical tests show, sociopaths do not feel fear because their can not process emotions, so if anyone can feel fear they are not a sociopath.

Now that makes more sense. I'm a sociopath, not a psychopath.

Time to clean my gun. :gladbron:

Sociopaths and psychopaths only overlap when the psychopath is deranged.

Sociopaths are antisocial.

Psychopath do not aim to be antisocial and modifies his behavior so he can be accepted into normal society.

Sociopaths have no desire to be part of normal society, and are suffering from a personality disorder not a brain disorder like a psychopath.

Oh, I only took Psychology 100 level course. I don't remember anything from that course. I took it a long time ago.

So, just curious, why would you pick a username of Suicide King?

posting as a liberal/democrat or republican is a full time job and they're all psychopaths.
