The Jerk and The Attention Wh*re...Seperate Yet Equal

[Jester]

In memory of our comrade struck down in action, Nitris. You may have been destroyed and turned back to the pits of chumpdom by the female sociopath, but your DJ memory will not be forgotten.


Lets not let Nitris's return to the world of the AFC be in vain.


The two extremes of both sexes are indeed the same. Jerks and Attwh*res represent the “cheaters” in reproduction. Apparently, these people are actually on a genetic mission to defeat the genes for altruism and replace them with genes of a sociopathic nature. As odd as this may be, it is like a battle between Good and Evil. The jerk and Attwh0re strategy(lets justcall them sociopaths for now) is to take advantage of the altruistic leanings in other people by pretending to have similar altruistic motives themselves.

Linda Mealy (1995) has argued that the sociopathic strategy is maintained by frequency-dependent selection. She summarizes her argument as follows: “(1) there is a genetic predisposition underlying sociopathy which is normally distributed in the population; (2) as the result of selection to fill a small, frequency-dependent, evolutionary niche, a small, fixed percentage of individuals- those at the extreme of this continuum- will be deemed "morally insane" in any culture; (3) a variable percentage of individuals who are less extreme on the continuum will sometimes, in response to environmental conditions during their early development, pursue a life-history strategy that is similar to that of their "morally insane" colleagues; and (4) a subclinical manifestation of this underlying genetic continuum is evident in many of us, becoming apparent only at those times when immediate environmental circumstances make an antisocial strategy more profitable than a prosocial one.”


So, what she is saying is there are many people born to be sociopaths as a result of their genetics. Some are made to be sociopaths from having an unhealthy upbringing combined with predisposing genetic factors. And some just have it temporarily because of new but not permenant factors. Fortunately, sociopaths who prey upon the larger prosocial population can not maintain a high population because their success is dependent upon the unawareness of their victims(im making u ****ers aware now).


The early factors for the triggering of sociopathy in those with genetic predispositions include physical or sexual abuse as children and a history of parental separation and loss (Stevens and Price, 1996). Some have spent time in orphanages and foster homes as well. Presumably, roughly equal numbers of males and females are subjected to such degraded rearing experiences but males are much more likely to become sociopaths whereas females are much more likely to develop histrionic personality disorders.


Histrionic personality disorder is characterized by exaggerated attention seeking behavior(Attention *****s), sexually inappropriate, seductive or provocative behavior, a tendency to be easily influenced by others and to perceive relationships to be more intimate than they actually are. Harpending and Sobus (1987) have argued that histrionic females are employing a cheating strategy that is equivalent to that of sociopathic males. Because the reproductive strategies of males and females differ, the cheating strategies of males and females must differ accordingly. A male sociopath should be adept at seducing females and deceiving them about his degree of commitment (The Jerk Cornerstone). A histrionic female should be adept at exaggerating her need for the male and her vulnerability in order to induce him to lavish love and attention upon her. The histrionic female should also show a readiness to abandon her offspring opportunistically (former mating partners or their close kin typically take care of the abandoned offspring).

My closest friend has suffered through this and is suffering through it now, and my inability to help him is what inspired this post.

AFCs beware, the female sociopath will convince you she cares for you, but in reality she is incapable of such emotional attachment. The Beast believes everyone loves her, and will attempt to coverup anything said negatively about her by saying it was a lie. Through emotional manipulation, they will attempt to gain and then maintain control over their victims(which oftentimes is everyone in their lives). They will latch on and not let go until they have found someone else they can manipulate easier and get more from. They are the leeches of the human population, they are the parasites. They can cry at the drop of a hat, and lie to their best friends without remorse. I have been a witness to this evil, but i have not experienced it first hand. It is an uncommon event when new terrority is uncovered and hopefully this will benefit some of you out there who have encountered this enemy of good.



For diagnosis:

The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders
World Health Organization, Geneva, 1992


F60.4 Histrionic Personality Disorder
Personality disorder characterized by at least 3 of the following:

a. self-dramatization, theatricality, exaggerated expression of emotions;

b. suggestibility, easily influenced by others or by circumstances;

c. shallow and labile affectivity;

d. continual seeking for excitement, appreciation by others, and activities in which the patient is the centre of attention;

e. inappropriate seductiveness in appearance or behaviour;

f. over-concern with physical attractiveness.

Associated features may include egocentricity, self-indulgence, continuous longing for appreciation, feelings that are easily hurt, and persistent manipulative behaviour to achieve own needs.


And for Antisocial personality disorder which is quite similar.

The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders
World Health Organization, Geneva, 1992


F60.2 Dissocial (Antisocial) Personality Disorder

Personality disorder, usually coming to attention because of a gross disparity between behaviour and the prevailing social norms, and characterized by at least 3 of the following:

a. callous unconcern for the feelings of others;

b. gross and persistent attitude of irresponsibility and disregard for social norms, rules and obligations;

c. incapacity to maintain enduring relationships, though having no difficulty in establishing them;

d. very low tolerance to frustration and a low threshold for discharge of aggression, including violence;

e. incapacity to experience guilt and to profit from experience, particularly punishment;

f. marked proneness to blame others, or to offer plausible rationalizations, for the behaviour that has brought the patient into conflict with society.


There may also be persistent irritability as an associated feature. Conduct disorder during childhood and adolescence, though not invariably present, may further support the diagnosis.

I agree with some of what you said, but you need to understand one CLEAR and IMPORTANT point, the most important point of the attention wh ore. They are NOT out to intentionally hurt anyone or destroy anything. Often attention whor es, in every case, don't even REALIZE they are attention whor es. Its there own psychological makeup. They behave in a such a way as to overcompensate for various personality and psychological shortcomings and self esteem flaws. there not intentionally bad people. Its a naturally occuring defense mechanism used to cope with control deep rooted feelings of lack of self worth, self esteem and confidence.

Are you the author of this:

The Romantic Predator

The sexual predator, that dark and mysterious figure, the "stranger", unpredictable, hinting at danger, tinged with violence... what is there that so attracts women to him? Truly, there seems something almost magical about those few men who seem able to mesmerize women at will. What secret do they possess that gives them this power, this intensity, this animal magnetism?
Users and manipulators is the key phrase. Such men have learned to spot and sniff out vulnerable women, the "wounded birds", the ones most susceptible to their particular brand of sorcery. They have mastered the art of "pushing the emotional buttons" of their fellow humans, exploiting the feelings and weaknesses of hurt people (and is not most everyone hurt?), playing women like a musical instrument. In their single-minded pursuit of pleasure, of self-gratification, they leave behind them a string of victims. These are haters of women, exploiters of human weakness, parasites, sociopaths*.
These ... fancy-grade hit-and-run drivers leave numerous victims in their wake...
Roger Shattuck, Forbidden Knowledge
This little deviation into the dark alleys of the criminal mind and the underside of human nature yields insight into the sad emptiness of the career seducer. There is little to envy in these creatures. They lead meaningless lives, and each successive "conquest" does nothing to fill the screaming, hungry void within. There is little to admire, considering the pain and wreckage they leave behind. We shy men can pride ourselves in being truly different, in being perceptive, sensitive, caring human beings, in being lovers of women. We are the ones who clean up the damage left behind by the monsters and the misbegotten. We bring beauty and healing into the world.


When the meek inherit the earth, I will be there to push them down and take it from them. And as far as cleaning up my damaged women....good luck! I don't deal in day old garbage anyways...

just jokin jester

I was just doing a research in this forum and I found the text you mentioned and i got curious!!! PS where did you find this information? It's pretty interesting.

Anyway, Jester is correct. We must be aware of this type of people!

Check out this Thread that talks about those type of women dead on.

Hey Blue Pheonix no surprise seeing you here. Keep spreading the word about those crazy b1tches, because even after you get rid of them, they will linger in your mind for a very very long time.

I am not talking oneitis, I am talking about the deception of someone who claim to care for you, latch on to you for support and then leave you out of the blue for another guy like you never ever existed. All the time and effort you place in the relationship (AFC' emotional tampon) while she returns somewhat the affection back but then poof she is gone with another guy "all happy". SO WATCH OUT FOR THEM.

Interesting reading but not worth much I say. For example, both disorder definitions say

characterized by at least 3 of the following:

and then give a long list. Sounds as valid as astrology (which is also interesting and predictive at times). Earlier this century, psychologists believed that intelligence related to national ancestry, and so they would conduct studies which would produce lists like: English, Dutch, German, etc. in that order are inherently the most intelligent (and gee, these were their own ancestries (including my own I might add). And the results would be couched in serious sounding academic verbage as you see in your source. Shall we believe that too?

Oh, and myfriendblu is right on with this:

Most people out here have a personality disorder here and there, I wouldn't call it a disorder, I just call it a personality. I only call it a disorder if it affects people negatively.

For me, I exhibit some anti social behavior but also exhibit empathic abilities to help people out unlike other selfish men who want to show how powerful they are.
