They can be... when they want to be. But they can also be very quiet too.
No, in fact, it's the opposite. There are many more straight sociopaths than gay ones.
Yes. Sociopaths lack empathy, not the ability to feel sorrow.
In my experience, sociopaths use religion to manipulate others.
No
No. However, sociopaths have a mental disorder called ASPD, or anti-social personality disorder.
No. They're hosed.
Are people suicidal?
No anxiety
no most were all psychopaths or sociopaths but all of those who weren't were not famous. also the serial killers killed for a specific reason mostly related to a psychopathic or sociopaths disease.
Sociopaths exist in all segments of society but being a shrewd business person does not make one a sociopath.
No, infact most sociopaths dislike beign around other people. They find them annoying and stupid.
Many sociopaths are plain sadistic.The broader notion that most sadists and masochists 'switch' betweem the one and the other is problematical.Added (DF-04/09) - (speculative)From a physical perspective (as against emotional sadism and masochism) Many sociopaths are sadistic. Many sociopaths are also masochistic. This is not necessarily a case of switching between the two, but just another aspect and stems from a different perspective. Whereas sadism may stem from amusement at hurting others and a sense of power and control, many sociopaths describe a feeling of emptiness or even something described as "sociopathic pain". Sociopaths may then enage in masochism as "pain to kill pain." Of course, not all sadomasochists are sociopaths!
