#73. Psychopath or Sociopath? Reacting to Dr. Ramani and Her Anti-Male Bias
About this episode
The episode explores the differences between psychopaths, sociopaths, and antisocial personality disorder while addressing Dr. Ramani's claims about their origins.
What is the real difference between a psychopath, a sociopath, and antisocial personality disorder? In this episode, I respond to Dr. Ramani's claim that "psychopaths are born and sociopaths are made" and explain why that framing is far too simplistic. I also explain why cold psychopaths unsettle us so much and how antisocial personality disorder fits into this.
