Samenow, Stanton E., Dr. "The Male Criminal's Choice of Women." Inside the Criminal Mind. Psychology Today, 17 Aug. 2012. Web. 11 Apr. 2013.
This article talks about the two different ways or patterns that Male Criminal's follow when choosing women. One pattern is the male will pick a women who is very much like themselves. This relationships tend to not last very long because The second pattern, which is the most common, usually involves the male finding a women who is insecure and emotionally needy. These relationships can be very deadly because at first they start off like a fairy tale, but once you do something to set him off. He turns into this controlling monster who makes you feel like they only do the things they do because of you; getting you to believe that everything is your fault and you are to blame.
When I saw the title of the article, I thought this was going to be about serial killers and how they choose their victims. But I was wrong. I'm not disappointed because the article was still very intersting. The article was also sad because it sucks to think about people living in relationships that are very male dominant. Women deserve to know that they have worth in this world and I feel like men take advantage of the fact that sometimes we do need that male support in our lives, and they abuse it. This article was very eye opening, but you also have to realize that every guy who is nice to you isn't a criminal. You just have to use your head and if something doesn't feel right or the guy is really mysterious, then the red light should turn on and you should get out. Just remember safety first!
