Always the woman's fault

Poor didums fragile ego was destroyed by girlfriend's rejection otherwise he may have lived a "normal life". Apparently his girlfriend, quite sensibly, ran for the hills upon discovering his flat was covered in plastic sheeting, full of swords and violent images. This caused the serial killer to turn his back on his "normal life". Yes, because it is so normal to have a flat like that! Previously he had held a knife to a grils throat at uni but was allowed to continue. Totally normal

Everyday further cause for dismay. Why is it a womans responsibility to "be kind" to all and responsible for all societies ills?

Yes perfectly normal right up to her point! Always blame the woman, possibly would have been her fault if he'd decided to act out his fantasies on her. Can't blame the poor little man for being so warped he thought that his girlfriend would like his flat to look like the stage set for her own murder.

Poor little baba with his fragile ego...

The first and foremost rule of misogyny is that women are responsible for what men do to them.

I read the article and it doesn't really match the headline - there is no suggestion that the potential partner pushed the criminal deeper, just that he was scaring women away! A series of rejections isolated him, but the women doing the rejecting were not being judged.

But that is the point made by the psychiatrist; when people get lost in a world of their own, they become isolated and lose contact with 'normal' members of society. Their perception of normality can become warped, and they lose the opportunity to have other people intervene.

''Says 'isolated himself' further when woman rejected after seeing terrifying flat ''

But the psychiatrist has missed the contradiction in his belief system. He was isolated by women rejecting him, and at the same time angered by other people treating him as normal despite his attempts to appear frightening.

I think the psychiatrist is wrong. I don't believe he was trying to establish a normal life. I believe he was trying to find a girlfriend who would tolerate his obsessive behaviour.

So they blame the woman he scared off rather than the doctors who diagnosed him in 1991 and decided not to treat him? I think this particular psychiatrist needs to think rather more critically about what he is being told
