I across this interesting page on Wikipedia called “Characters With Narcissistic Personality Disorder” and I was very surprised by the characters that will included. I never thought of Patrick Bateman or Bender as having NPD before. There are some obvious ones like the Wicked Witch from Snow White and Gaston from Beauty And The Beast but are there any others.
Bender? Really? I thought that one would have been more obvious
More like, Zapp Brannigan for NPD.
It can be both
Yeah, Patrick Bateman seems pretty plainly obvious to me also
The problem with analyzing Patrick Bateman is that it’s like analyzing Jason Voorhees or Mike Myers. Bateman doesn’t really have a character outside of just being a sadist.
Why? I’ve watched a lot of Futurama and he’s outgoing and self centered but not in a narcissistic way. He just doesn’t care about social norms or what others think. He doesn’t have a high self image or need to be seen by others.
