I always wondered if many women watch this shit?
I mean every dude loves combat footage because as boys we all played soldier with our nerf guns and played violent video games, being more predisposed to violence probably makes us more curious about watching people die.
Ladies, can you explain why you watch this horrible stuff? Just good ol’ morbid curiosity? Its hard for me to guess with you being the more loving, gentler half of the human race. Where did your curiosity originate?
Mods: do you know the male to female ratio for here?

I always wondered why ANYONE watches this shit. I don't think it has to do with gender.
I can just echo what some of the other women (and others) have said: it's comforting, that I'm gonna die, also that I'm not there yet. Reminds me how fragile life is, and how unexpectedly strange events can occur and change everything forever. I drive a little more carefully, too. Those cars coming out of nowhere and mangling a human like a fly on one's windscreen make an impression.
I started when I ran across an animal attack video (which I now believe is fake; it's from Savage Man Savage Beast, you've probably seen it,) and I still love animal attack vids. I like to feel how small and insignificant humans are in the big world.
Gore, ok. Violence, however, is tougher. Mostly what bothers me is all the apathy, indifference, and desensitization we see here. Some of these vids I just think what kind of life did they have, to be able to do that to another human?? Really awful.
I've never been sexually or physically abused and I definitely don't have necrophiliac impulses at all.
