It's difficult to determine the exact number of psychopaths, as it varies depending on definitions and diagnostic criteria. Estimates suggest that approximately 1% of the general population may meet the criteria for psychopathy.
Most psychopaths do not kill people. Psychopathy is antisocial personality disorder, characterized by a lack of empathy, guilt and inhibition.
Psychopaths may have difficulty experiencing and expressing genuine love and empathy towards others due to their impairment in understanding emotions. However, they may be able to mimic love and display affection for personal gain or manipulation. It is important to note that each individual may display varying levels of capability to show love.
There are four different types of psychopaths.The first type is distempered psychopaths, who are the most prone to sudden outbursts of rage, with frenzy and rage resembling an epileptic fit. They have immensely strong sex drives, obsessing with sexual urges during their lives. They have also huge cravings, such as kleptomania or sadistic pedophilia, doing this almost solely for the "rush." Then, there are primary psychopaths, who should be called emotional masochists. They won't respond to stress, punishment, or disapproval. Another strong trait is that they don't understand the meaning of words well, a condition called semantic aphasia. They have no life plan and are just breathing machines with no emotion, good or bad. Next, there are charismatic psychopaths -- in one word, liars. They are irresistible, charming, believe their own lies, extremely persuasive, talented, and also have the ability to manipulate well. In fact, many leaders of doomsday cults (cults that drive their followers to their deaths, such as the Heaven's Gate cult) were these types of psychopaths. Finally, there are secondary psychopaths, who may feel slight emotions of worry or guilt. These are avid risk-takers, exposing themselves to more stress and danger than the average person, who play by their own rules.People will often confuse sociopaths and antisocial disorders with Psychopathy.
Yes, psychopaths can experience jealousy but it may manifest differently than in individuals without psychopathic traits. They may be more likely to react with anger or aggression, and jealousy may stem from not wanting to lose control or power over someone rather than genuine emotional attachment.
A psychopath is a person with a personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy and remorse, manipulative behavior, and impulsivity. Psychopaths may engage in criminal and antisocial behavior without feeling guilt or empathy towards their victims.
Yes, many are. Many are charismatic psychopaths. They are irresistible, charming, , and have the ability to manipulate well.
I'm sure many can, although it is not a psycho requirement.

yes they do.
A psychopath is someone who is able to harm another without feeling pain or guilt. Some paedophiles- the ones who actually hurt children (most paedophiles don't actually touch a child)- are psychopaths. However, not all psychopaths are paedophiles. I doubt that there are more paedophiles among the psychopaths than in the general population.
