The topic still seems as popular as ever “ Monster” was watched for 196.2 million hours in its first full week on the site, setting a new record for Netflix – and despite an understandable wave of backlash. Just trying to share some thoughts.Netflix’s new true crime drama “Monster: The Jeffreyĭahmer Story” is the latest in a long list of TV shows that have focused on I apologize in advanced if my post offends anyone, I swear that is absolutely in no way my intention with this post and observation. One more time I'd like to say I am in no way homophobic and this isnt an attack or a negative assessment of the LGBT community at all. What do you guys think? Am I just falling victim to self confirmation bias or do any of you guys notice something similar?
All of these make this a fairly muddy question to address with certainty but despite this I still feel like in comparison to their proportion of the general population that gay men are overrepresented amongst serial murderers. Along with that, the fact that sexuality exists as more of a spectrum than something bound by specific rigid labels would also make it a bit more difficult to definitely state an accurate number of "gay" male killers as opposed to someone who was open to both sexes or primarily straight but still willing to engage in homosexual acts and even some that may seem to be fully straight but were in fact on the down low.
I know the actual number of gay men in society may be difficult to pinpoint due to many still feeling the need to remain closeted. that's just to name the ones I could think of without having to look more up but I've read about several more less prominent killers that were also gay.
Just to name those that instantly jump in my mind: Dahmer, Gacy, Bruce Mcarthur, Dean Corll (Gacy studied him), Robert Berdella. Im no authority on serial killers but it seems like out of the prominent ones a disproportionate amount of the male ones were gay. I tried googling this but found nothing, and I'd like to know if others have noted the same trend or if im just being biased and not realizing it.
