| Handsome Brute: British cannibal Matthew Williams |
The pick-up artist community likes to draw on evolutionary psychology for its memes and arguments. While I have some sympathy for their general perspective, it is sometimes hard to square these arguments with real-world events - as the following story illustrates:
Welsh Cannibal Matthew Williams Eats Victim Cerys Marie Yemm and then Dies after being Tasered in Homeless Hostel
 |
| The not unattractive Ms Yemm |
A killer was allegedly found eating the body parts of a woman he had
attacked before being shot with a Taser by police yesterday. He later
died. The woman, who died of her injuries, has been named as Cerys Marie Yemm. Matthew
Williams, 34, is reported to have been eating the eyeball and face of
the 22-year-old woman, who died of her injuries. Police confirmed they
had used a 50,000-volt Taser on Williams. Security staff at a hostel for the homeless in Argoed, South Wales,
became suspicious when Williams refused to let them enter the room. They
are said to have forced entry, before calling the police who knocked
Williams to the ground with a Taser gun.

| Ms Yemm: an eye for dangerous men |
Gwent Police confirmed that the man was shot with a Taser
and then arrested, and that while under arrest the man “became
unresponsive”.
Williams had been released from
prison two
weeks ago, after serving half of a five-year prison sentence for a
violent attack on his
partner. Williams – who is known
locally by the nickname
Fifi – was staying at the former Sirhowy Arms
Hotel, which operated as a bail hostel. He is said to have only just
met
his victim before
asking her back to the hostel for a drink.
Police confirmed that Williams and his victim were
known to each other.
Police were carrying out forensic tests on a silver BMW believed to belong to Williams which was parked outside the hostel. Locals have reportedly nicknamed the man “Hannibal Lecter” after the fictional cannibal character. A
Gwent Police spokeswoman said:
“While under arrest, the man became
unresponsive. Officers and paramedics administered first aid but he has
since been pronounced deceased. We were called at 1.23am yesterday after a report that a man was
attacking a woman. On arrival both the male and female were still at the location. A Taser was discharged and a man was arrested.
“The woman was located with injuries and has since been pronounced
deceased.”

While deeply disturbing, the story does seem to shed
important light on what women find inherently
attractive in a
man. Whatever else may be said of Williams, he seemed to have some pretty
impressive Game skills. After all, despite living in a hostel for the homeless he was able to pick up a
fairly attractive young woman for a night of fun and - well, let's leave it at that. He had been imprisoned for a
violent attack on his former
partner, something Ms Yemm quite possibly knew about (they were 'known to each other', after all). In addition, Williams was
suffering severe
mental illness prior to the attack, a result of long-term
drug abuse. Indeed, he reported seeing the world as a
black-and-white negative. Safe pair of hands, then...
So
there we
have it. A
sadistic, woman-beating
thug without
education,
intelligence or
looks, dressed like the inmate of some Eighteenth Century
prison hulk, living in a malodorous
doss-house full of other psychotic misfits and seeing the
world as a
photographic negative is able to pick up a relatively
attractive young girl ten years
younger than himself without any problem at all. Quite the Gamer!
While I am fully aware that the
Traditionalist MRAs' fixation with putting the
clock back to an era that elides the inchoate vagaries of
female mate-choice is
deluded, stories like this sometimes make me
wish such a
thing were
possible.
