Are you a big fan of true crime documentaries?

Women make up the majority of true crime audiences, with some studies suggesting they account for around 80% of listeners and viewers. Psychologists believe this is partly because true crime helps women understand danger, recognize warning signs, and learn how to navigate potentially risky situations. But it's not all about fear—many women also find true crime oddly relaxing because, unlike real life, these stories usually have a clear beginning, middle, and end, offering a sense of closure and justice.
