What is it about western Patriarchy that inscribes gender on women such that they become attracted to true crime and vicious and brutal crime stories?

Do you think this is a phenomenon? And do you think that Patriarchy created this? If so, how? And maybe why?
Merci.

Men love that garbage too. I don't get the appeal personally but I've had enough violence and terror in my life that I don't seek it out. Maybe people with better backgrounds find more fascination with it because they haven't experienced it for themselves? I know one person who had a very peaceful upbringing and relatively easy life who got really into true crime / serial killer stuff and came out of it extremely paranoid and agoraphobic. In general I also find true crime entertainment to be disrespectful and exploitative of the victims. Alright alright I'll step down off my soapbox now.
I agree with your perspective about true crime for sure.
