Insanity Plea

From member Backbreaker on the (fresh new server) SoSuave forum:

So.. we all have our hobbies and things. My wife has this twisted fascination about death row. Like anything that is on TV or a movie or documentary about death row she has to watch it. So she found a documentary about this dude on death row in Texas.. actually a quite young guy, he can’t be 25 years old. it’s not a bad documentary

This is where I trip out. okay the dude, on death row. has killed 3 freaking people. Over a late 90’s Chevy Camaro. the dude is not very smart. He is not very good-looking. The guy, I mean shit he’s on death row need I say more?

So they interview his attorney who is doing the work for him. She lived in Nebraska and was doing the work pro bono for him to get him an appeal / out of prison. honestly. She’s not very bad-looking at all. She’s pretty cute. and she’s a lawyer. this woman, mind you, has never seen this dude in her life, falls in love with the dude on death row, drives from Nebraska to Texas, meets him and they confess their love for each other upon first sight.. mind you he is behind a glass on a phone talking to her. She tells her friends, and her friends tell her that she is in love and she needs to do what she needs to do and she goes outside and sees a rainbow outside and how that is a sign that this is the guy she needs to be with.

The story even gets better. not only did she drive down there, one of her beta male friends actually drove her to meet the inmate. Do you know how much of a failure you have to be in life to drive a woman down to see a guy on death row and she looks at you and looks at him and looks at you and looks at him, and says yes this is the guy I want to be with, the guy that is on death row.

For all you guys that talk about how there are no woman out there, STFU. This woman is easily a HB 6.5-7 and she’s smart and MARRIED a dude that is going to die very soon. You are getting out gamed by a dude that can’t even touch his wife.

This just goes to show to me how much women are looking for Men and how they aren’t very many out there. When a woman has to stoop to this level to find a man who states a hell of a lot about the dating pool. I mean she is faithful as a mofo too lol. She is in love with her damn man.

There’s an interesting mental process that men, and women interested in secreting the more innate aspects of hypergamy, will engage in when presented with blatant manifestations of that evolved hypergamy. The natural presumption, and convenient rationalization, is that any woman seeking out the Alpha seed of an incarcerated murderer must, by definition, be insane. After all, women constantly relate their need for comfort, trust and rapport. We all know how safe women need to feel before conceding their intimacy with a guy, and what could be more threatening or intimidating that a death row murderer?

My good friend DJ Damage expounds upon this:

I don’t believe that “some” women’s morbid fascination with dudes behind prisons or female teachers fucking their students have a whole lot to do with “being Alpha” but rather have to do with them being a little fucked up in the head.

What my astute colleague fails to grasp is actually quite simple,..

Hypergamy doesn’t care if you’re incarcerated.

What appears to be insanity in women is usually the manifested result of their evolutionary imperatives. Anders Breivik had multiple offers of marriage in prison from women he didn’t even know the day before he went on his killing spree. Richard Ramirez (night stalker), Scott Peterson, both had small cult followings of women ready to bear their potentially murderous offspring. There is no uniquely male phenomenon of men deliberately taking action to seek out the intimacies of incarcerated women.

It may seem like only insane or celebrity seeking women would be attracted to convicted murderers, and this may be the case, but there is an underlying attraction/arousal to a man with the capacity to kill another man. In our evolutionary past, killing a rival was the ultimate social proof of Alpha dominance. It would stand to reason that this act would have evolved into a conditional prompt for female attraction. While provisioning traits that fostered trust and nurturing may have been selected-for in the interests of parental investment, the traits unique to the physical capacity to kill a genetic rival would be selected-for sexual cues for women.

While it may offend men’s sensibilities and morals, hypergamy doesn’t care what your preconceived notions are about what constitues Alpha according to the male perspective. Women are attracted to Men with a capacity for dominance, by order of degree. How that dominance manifests itself may be measurable, but know that the Alpha indicators of that dominance are all that matters in feminine arousal.

By Reason of Insanity

So while you may think a woman is mentally imbalanced for ‘choosing’ a criminal as her soul-mate, understand that the precious, quality, good-girl you’re patiently trying to convince to be comfortable enough to fuck you is subject to the same attraction cues of this ‘insane’ lawyer. Your quality woman may be well grounded and psychologically stable enough to consider the extreme of pursuing a death row inmate to be crazy, but rest assured she gets off on the fantasy of an outlaw biker, a rebel artist, a non-conformist musician, a powerful attorney, an indifferent surgeon,..etc.

It serves hypergamy’s purpose that a social convention presuming women’s insanity in cases like this be reaffirmed. For men it’s an ego buffer. As Backbreaker pointed out, if a guy on death row can ‘theoretically’ (if maybe not physically) score with a semi-desirable woman what does that say about his efforts to placate women with beta Game? They’d have to be insane if their behavior contradicted their stated beliefs and desires for comfort and trust, right?

For women this uniquely female phenomenon is further evidence of a pluralistic sexual strategy – get the Alpha seed, secure the Beta provider. A soon-to-be dead Alpha’s genetics is almost an ideally blameless situation for securing both imperatives with an after the fact Beta providership. It’s technically an insanity plea. However, in the interests of women not willing, or lacking the capacity, to go to such an extreme, this presents a potential security breach with regards to overtly exposing feminine hypergamy in all its ugly, socially unacceptable glory. Ergo, they readily embrace the meme that only insane women lacking any self-esteem or integrity would stoop so low as to entertain the idea that a convicted murderer might be her soul mate.

It’s not like we sit down and think this stuff out. It’s attraction. It’s just there with no thought process to it. After the attraction is in place, we then think whether or not we are making a good decision and make a move one way or the other (At least that is the idea). There is no well . . . this guy has this level of dominance, but this guy over here has a bit lower level but makes X dollars and is a bit more handsome, and well Bruce over here has this, this and this.

Absolutely. Unfortunately, women aren’t taught to think. They are taught to go with their feelings. Most of the time we don’t even realize where are feelings come from. The only people benefitting from this are the Alphas getting laid left and right. It’s a boon for them but it sucks for society and everyone else.

Oh I completely agree. The entire process of arousal and attraction is a hindbrain autonomous response. There is no self-awareness about it until a woman is called upon to explain her attraction. At which point most wont be able to ‘put their finger on it’ as to why it happened. “I was drunk, he was cute and well, one thing led to another” is usually as far as any introspection goes.

Cognitively yes, but that’s debatable.

Subliminally, no.

You’re not going to rationalize away the subconscious motivating impulses that thousands of years of evolution has hardwired into the arousal process.

“cynics and nihilists will say the integration is impossible.” Integration is a great word. What does that mean for you? For me it means enjoying the lower base qualities as they are for their own sake, as well as enjoying upper qualities for their own sake, and enjoying both together at times as well. For some people integrating means that the more civilized processes should dominate the lower ones. I’d consider such a relationship more oppressive than integrated. A little hedonism for the sake of it can fit into a balanced life. Even if it can get messy and problematic.… Read more »

So don’t be surprised if “society” champions the female cause.

Men individuate. A society of men is almost an oxymoron. A group of men is more accurate.

today it seems that women run society, because they spend at the malls and make wreaths inspired by martha stewart.

The technology and physical ease (or difficulty) of killing is not the point; it is the mental/emotional capacity to actually commit the act. A lot of posers say that they could kill someone, but when it comes right down to it and you are looking the potential victim in the eye and understanding that you are about to irrevocably end a life, I would be willing to bet that most could not actually bring themselves to do it without some overwhelming reason, as opposed to those who are able to off someone over something as trivial as a perceived slight… Read more »

Scanning through them it is very interesting in terms of the reasons given by the women that do this and other women speculating on reasons why other women might do it. It really is world class hamstering.

When and if the concept of the full meaning of hypergamy hits mainstream with enough supporting evidence it will be very interesting times.

We think it is “sad” when we see evil men being rewarded with the attention of attractive women, but that’s just your morality talking.

So we’ve been at war for 10 years now. How come women aren’t hanging around military bases looking to snag one of those guys who has killed someone?

I think there’s a bit of the social permissiveness behind the killing that plays a part in motivating these women. The military guys, they killed out of duty; a socially acceptable act in a time of war. The death row inmate didn’t kill under those circumstances.

What this means? Beats me. I’m not knowledgeable enough as others in the blogosphere are about human nature to comment. Maybe someone else could?

One explanation that’s sometimes offered is that the criminal, the bad boy, is attractive to a woman because he’s a rebel. He doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him. He doesn’t follow the rules. He bends the rules. Or he lives by his own rules, making them up and changing them as he goes along. He does whatever he wants, wherever he wants, with and to whoever he wants. By contrast, the military man who kills does because he has to. The soldier is duty, honor, and obligation personified. He does not rebel. He follows orders and rules that others… Read more »

“So while you may think a woman is mentally imbalanced for ‘choosing’ a criminal as her soul-mate, understand that the precious, quality, good-girl you’re patiently trying to convince to be comfortable enough to fuck you is subject to the same attraction cues of this ‘insane’ lawyer.”

I’d argue that women are subject to the same attraction vectors to varying degrees—and that the notion of a continuum is indispensable.

But spot on otherwise.

One of the first things that you have to learn about women is they cannot control to whom they feel attraction. This is why I scoff at women who try to project their own opinions and insecurities on other women. Being a lot older than the women I normally date (I’m pushing 50 and tend to date in the 18-25 age bracket) I see this all the time. A lot of times young women will fight against their attraction – because their peer group will try to convince them not to pursue it, but they cannot control the fact that… Read more »

i do not think this is tied to the feminine imerative. Insanity is simply how we describe actions which cannot fit into our mental models. Not unlike telling a debating oponent “you’re mad” when we cannot understand their argument.
We can understand the female mechanics which creates the attraction to death row inmates, so their behavior makes sense to us. For most people this behavior is a gross departure from expected female behavior. Insanity is the model which explains all behaviors which don’t fit our models.

It doesn’t always have to be physical dominance (killing, fighting), as there is other ways too.
IMHO, bad boy is better than jerk. So many guys try to be a jerk, but they just sound like whiny complainers who eventually repel people away from them. A bad boy on the other hand does what he wants and it’s exciting, he’s masculine and sexual, and this attracts women to him.
