John,

In over 40 years of definitive clinical research, there’s no data that corroborates your “sexuality” opinion. I think it’s safe to say your thoughts are completely incorrect and misguided.

I appreciate this exploration into defining sociopaths and psychopaths.The one thing that I see that wasn’t mentioned here was both types are sexually motivated and that Jeffery Dahmer mentioned here is Gay not Straight! Sexuality my opinion is the determining factor!

You are correct, Lidija. They may not use weapons made of steel, but their weapon of evil can lead to a slow, lonely and painful death.

Thanks for your thoughts here, as well as the private comment you sent. It helps to communicate with those who know from personal experience. No one can understand without experience.

I’m still using term “psychopath” ,

I did have an experience with a corporate psychopath … they don’t use a gun/knife to destroy a life, but they’re giving their worst with what they have.

I, too, was married to a sociopath (I refer to her as a Master Manipulator), and I recently discovered that my oldest sister is also a sociopath, as is my younger brother.

My sister was brutally hostile to me growing up, and now, 50 years later, I know why. Not just the fact that she’s a sociopath, but what part of that caused her to be brutal to me, and no other sibling. It will be posted soon.
