CHICKS DIG JERKS, WRIT LARGE: Lovesick over Charles Manson. Really? “Often characterized as ‘killer groupies,’ this pattern of attraction is sufficiently common to have been assigned a clinical label: hybristophilia, a paraphilia in which someone is sexually aroused or attracted to a person who has committed a particularly vicious or gruesome crime. In its more common form, hybristophiles merely seek to be close to some ‘bad boy.’ Occasionally, however, it can lead to behaviors far more dangerous than mere adoration and devotion.”
