What Does a Serial Killing Misogynist Look Like? Bundy vs Jack

How many times have we walked passed someone that for whatever reason sends a chill down our spine and causes us to act a bit more cautiously than usual? This has happened to me a few times. But how many of these times has the person been someone attractive and charismatic? The method to my madness is caused by a little research into the serial killer Ted Bundy. He is suggested to be "the most frightening of serial killers." Bundy was handsome, well eduacted and had a future in politics. He made himself seem harmless and vulnerable to women by faking a broken arm and having it in a sling. This leads me to question the physical characteristics of the ripper. Did he make these prostitutes feel at ease with him? Was he handsome? Did they let down their guard because he seemed harmless enough?

Like jack the ripper, Bundy was known for mutilating the bodies of his victims. His acts were so gruesome it made you wonder if he may be the reincarnation of the ripper. Bundy hit the women on the head with a blunt object, raped and sodomized them. He even admitted the keeping a body for necrophilia.

There are many similarities between Jack and Bundy when it comes to their disregard for female human life. It is obvious that they enjoy the brutal act of killing and more to the point hurting their victims. Their killings do not resemble killings that are based on power or superiority, they are based on the act of the kill. They get their thrill from the act of killing.

The main point I am trying to make is that predators are out there and we need to be more aware as women. Serial killers are not going to make themselves conspicuous or approach us and say "Hi i'm here to kill you." There are many serial killers like the ripper out there that have never been caught and are living amoung us. They may never be caught. After Bundy was caught his live in girlfriend and mother of his daughter was still convinced of his innocence. Was there someone in a similar capacity in Jack's life? We will never know.
