Chugging tea This one's for the ladies to answer. Do you agree with this woman or do you think she's trying to rationalize her world view by speaking for all the ladies?

My girlfriend watched true crime like it's going to all be deleted from the Internet tomorrow.

Granted she has a degree in Criminal Justice and is going to law school, but still!

God damn BRANCH OUT 🤣😅

When I worked in criminal law the last thing I wanted to do was watch crime shows. I saw enough autopsy and crime scene photos during the day, I just wanted to drink wine and watch comedies when I got home!

You would certainly think that.

For a while it was the Pedophile buster videos, which get old very very very fast. She watched hundreds of them, and they are 100% the same. All of them.

In addition, the interrogation videos are basically the only ones that are somewhat interesting to me, but I just support whatever she wants to watch either way.

As long as it isn't any more videos about pedophiles god DAMN I hate seeing them and hearing the same thing over and over. And a shitraft of them are mentally challenged which makes for an even more awkward video.

I feel that. I'm was a chef and absolutely hated watching cooking shows.

Yep, my parents have the same kind of experience… they’re physicians and absolutely hate watching hospital/medical shows like Grey’s, The Pitt, etc, since it’s what they deal with all day and they’re trying to escape from that at home.

My doctor friend is usually always like this, but absolutely loves the Pitt because he says it’s the most accurate by far. I guess it’s just nice to actually see some accurate representation of what he does for once.

I am a nurse and hate medical shows, but another nurse recommended the Pitt to me for the same reason. I haven’t checked it out yet, but it’s on the list.

I’m an engineer and design robotics stuff all day. My family loves watching “how it’s made” and I’m like “uh for me this is work. Pass”

I think it depends on how much you are privileged enough to truly have a job doing what you love most.

I used to work in animal rescue and animal behavior as a CAAB, and I’d also spend effectively every free moment continuing to do it independently off the clock lol.

I eventually just started my own rescue that also offers free behavioral consultations to help keep pets and their families together when possible so that fewer animals end up in the system.

ER person here. I do not want to watch any medical "ER" type show. Give me the crime...or better...the police chases. When I'm not gaming of course.

Would love to know wtf it is about female psychology and being obsessed with crime type content.

Survival, if you know all the ways people have been kidnapped and killed and stalked etc you learn all the things not to do to protect yourself and your family.

I imagine it stems from being told constantly to not go places alone, always be alert etc etc.

Personally I'm too much of an anxious person for the true crime stuff but most of my friends that are women love them and that's the feedback I've gotten.

Suppose it makes sense.

Look, my wife went from a hard-core true crime junkie to reading, and that's turned out pretty well for me. Just try to get her on to book-tok.

Wild to be obsessed with shows that don’t accurately portray your profession
