PH forums are pretty sexist in large part, so here is a headline made like it was made just for you. SWT etc

Is the article sexist then?

TX.

Not sure the OP understands the meaning of sexist tbh.

If only the screening the author advocates was applied to those seeking political office.

No, it’s not.

I've worked with some proper head melters over the years but if they were psychos I'm still alive.

If there are so many of them out there then natural selection means there's a survival advantage.

I don't think PH is anywhere near as sexist as some forums I've read and don't go near. It's male dominated, not the same thing.

[PlywoodPascal]

it means there's a survival advantage for the species, yeah.

You started the thread with a disparaging comment.

Yes, being a psycho is a survival advantage. I'm reasonably sure I'm not one as I've known a few suspects and don't see myself in them.

Disparaging but accurate - PH forums are at times downright misogynistic imo.

They're male dominated. That's not the same thing as mysoginistic.

Settle petal.

It’s possible to be male and not misogynistic. Admittedly more difficult for a lot of the dimwits in NP&E.

It’s not the same thing, no, but the two things are not mutually exclusive. Which makes your line of argument a bit odd, really.

I'd recommend a book called The Sociopath Next Door. I went 20 years without working with a proper nutter and then ended up working with two in quick succession.

So work wise one female, one male. Daren't say how many I live with, but they're both female.

Not seen a reference to SWT for ages - there was a time when it cropped up in almost every thread. Wasn't particularly amusing in the first place & became tedious in the extreme when parroted repeatedly.

Surprised you recall it given you've only been on PH for 19 months - thought that nonsense was longer ago.

I had to look it up, and anyone who thinks it's 'funny' needs to take a good, long hard look at themselves.

Okay ... they're not mutually exclusive. They're also not the same thing. Which makes my line of argument not very odd at all. I've no idea why I'm bothering with this sentence. NP&E can be a bit of a cesspit at times but it's not full of misogyny and the fkwits always get challenged. Admittedly there are threads I ignore for the sake of my sanity but I'll remind you again you started this one. You're the one looking for an argument.

A good 10yrs ago Ozzie.
Never really been my sort of language, but then I’ve also never been through a nasty rat fight of a divorce that some have. I guess it all depends on our experiences.
