According to Daryl, she didn't show one symptom over the four years she was with him.

There was no sexist-double standards implied or otherwise in my post. It could have easily applied conversely to a female falling "hard and fast in love etc". I didn't say anything about Jodi's promiscuity or other sexual behavior at all. If you gleaned some sort of sexist undertone in my post, then I can only assume that it is your personal bias coming through. I hope this is crystal clear.

I was jumping off your post, Beaglemania, about Darryl being "p-whipped" and Jodi being a sexually promiscuous woman (a "harlot"), to make a point that when we are discussing potential diagnoses for Arias, we should really try to avoid sexist double-standards and stereotypes. Because our own prejudices, about what is normal behaviour for men and women, may colour our perceptions of mental illnesses and disorders.
Sorry that I wasn't clear.
