I think the engagement level is different for men vs women when it comes true crime content. Men watch or listen to true crime content and then when it's over go about their lives. Women listen to a true crime podcast and then fire up facebook groups and discord servers where they congregate with other women into true crime and no doubt annoy the shit out of each other. Women don't have sports, except the WNBA and USWNT every 4 years, so true crime fandom is their cauliflower substitute for sports.

If you're a married woman and your husband ends up dead, even if you killed him you probably won't do more than 3 to 5 years, if any time at all. even if they sentence you to 5 years they'll let you out after a few months because, hey, you're a woman. An occasional female spouse killer will end up with a life sentence, but you gotta be really unlucky or stupid. Take the damn plea deal, ffs.

If you're a man and your wife ends up murdered to death, well, your ass is going to prison. You weren't involved? You have a solid alibi? There's another obvious perp with means, motive and opportunity? Does not matter. The police and prosecutor will literally work in concert with your wife's actual killer to prosecute you for her murder and you will be convicted and end up in prison for life for something you had no involvement in. Take the plea deal. You're at least guilty of not preventing your wife from being murdered, which is job one for a husband.

Instead of bemoaning self-exiled posters, let's celebrate posters like Hussra. He is pure joy.

My wife has 85% of our DVR filled with true crime shows. Should I be worried?

i always thought sports were a substitute for daytime dramas/soaps. the biggest difference for me is sports is real.. you can watch peoples lives propel to the stars or tank into hell within a few minutes. its great.
