    Yeah, I think it’s good.

    Look, we’re apes. We like being scared by things when we’re not really in any danger. See roller coasters, scary movies, etc. We’re also fascinated by conflict, when we can watch it from a safe distance. We find weapons interesting. And so-on.

    I’m guessing that for a long time, those things have been seen as masculine, and have been geared towards a male audience. If True Crime lets women indulge in that sort of thing while feeling like they belong, that’s great. But, I also hope they start participating in more things that are stereotypically male, like martial arts.
