THIS IS NOT A DUMB BLONDE JOKE

80-year-old Charlie Manson’s upcoming nuptials to a 26-year-old pretty raven-haired woman proves that too often women think with their genitals instead of their brains

By now, unless you’ve been dwelling under a rock, you’ve learned that 80-year-old Charlie Manson and 26-year-old Afton Elaine Burton have obtained a marriage license and plan to be married in Corcoran State Prison. No, this is not a dumb blonde joke.

Burton, a pretty raven-haired young woman, claims to be in love with one of America’s most notorious mass murderers. She believes their marriage will allow her more success in her zeal to show the world that poor old Charlie is innocent of the 1969 murders of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and six other persons. Burton left her Missouri home nine years ago and moved to Corcoran to be near Manson. She has several websites which proclaim Manson's innocence.

Now if this were an isolated situation we could dismiss Burton as some sort of kook. But it is far from unique.

There are thousands of women all over the Western World who fall in love with and want to marry prison inmates they never laid eyes on before. These women initiate contacts after learning about the inmates from the media or by responding to internet websites set up by or for prison inmates. In most cases those inmates committed the most horrible of unspeakable crimes. You would think these women are trailer trash and/or unattractive, but rather than being desperate to find a mate, many of them come from good backgrounds, are well educated, hold down high-dollar jobs and are very good looking.

Leydi Carol Figueroa Uceda, 23, recently married Joran van der Sloot, 26, who is serving 38 years in a Peruvian prison for the 2010 beating and strangling death of 21-year-old Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramírez, a university student. Van der Sloot is also believed to have killed American teenager Natalee Holloway in Aruba in 2005. Uceda began visiting the murderer shortly after he was confined and during one of those visits inside his jail cell, he impregnated her. Apparently, she is not concerned that her new husband is the killer of two young women.

Hybristophilia is the mental health term used to describe women who fall in love with notorious killers. After they were imprisoned, Charlie Manson, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Richard Ramirez and hundreds of other notorious murderers in this country, and in Britain, France, Germany and Russia among European countries, all received marriage proposals from countless women.

With thousands of women falling head over heels for notorious murderers, one has to question the judgment of women in general. Of course there are also a lot of men who think with their dicks instead of their brains, but they do not rush forth with marriage proposals to women murderers. Thinking with their dicks has gotten men, including cops, into serious trouble. Thinking with their genitals instead of their brains has gotten women involved with some of the worst monsters on this planet.
