I came across this definition of narcissism. Remind you of anyone?

Narcissism is a personality disorder that is characterized by a preoccupation with self, a sense of entitlement, and a lack of empathy towards others.
10 signs of narcissism:
  1. Grandiosity: A person with narcissistic tendencies may have an inflated sense of self-importance and exaggerate their achievements and abilities.
  2. Preoccupation with appearance: They may place great importance on their physical appearance, clothing, and other external attributes.
  3. Lack of empathy: They may be unable or unwilling to understand and empathize with the feelings of others.
  4. Need for admiration: They may crave constant attention, praise, and validation from others.
  5. Arrogance: They may come across as haughty, condescending, and overly confident.
  6. Exploitation: They may take advantage of others for personal gain, without any regard for their feelings or well-being.
  7. Entitlement: They may feel that they are entitled to special treatment and privileges, simply because of who they are.
  8. Difficulty with criticism: They may become defensive or even hostile when they are criticized or challenged in any way.
  9. Jealousy: They may be jealous of others' successes or accomplishments, and may try to undermine or belittle them.
  10. Lack of accountability: They may refuse to take responsibility for their actions, and may blame others for their mistakes or shortcomings.
 
She really is a textbook narc isn’t she? I remember when I first had doubts about her I was talking to someone who knew an acquaintance of hers. I said that I thought she had unresolved trauma herself and she said ‘Well I think she is a narcissist.’ I reserved making judgement at that stage but she really does show exactly who she is time and time again.

I remember someone here posting how she liked to fight with trolls and seemed to get a kick out of being so famous and special thst people dislike her. She likes it.


I find this so funny. To share this? Like, why?

So people rush in and say "nooooooooo Jess you're special and not like that at all ...."

Fishing for compliments 24/7

They're all the same, it blows my mind how narcissistic people all operate almost identically.

The Jess-alike I know was publicly accused of racism by someone with a not particularly large following... So my narc friend screenshotted it and posted it publicly to her several thousand Facebook friends, and then had a meltdown when they didn't agree with her and expected her friends to jump to her defence because she was being "bullied".

Constant self-inflicted drama.
 
"Preoccupation with appearance: They may place great importance on their physical appearance, clothing, and other external attributes."
Totally, she puts her face on everything and puts quotes up as an excuse to show her face which is just unnerving..

Cartoon Jess with her iconic fringe and the assumption that when people see her fringed face image in anyway they are excited and feel like this is "feminism"

Rarely does she share a selfie or picture with any point besides "look at me" or "look at my outfit/body/hairstyle/nail polish/some aspect of my appearance"


It's hard to imagine anyone else cares as much as she does about her appearance...her ripped jeans....her feminist jumpsuit ...her cool new shade of grey hair...did anyone ask ? Do we care ?
 
Lol qualified in what exactly ?
Starting fights with people on the internet and being social media influencers ?
They're not more qualified academics, clinicians, writers or thinkers but nice one suggesting that and taking a sly dig at older feminists at the same time, really helps the cause.

It says on average, of couples getting married, the gay couples tend to be younger and hold more qualifications. That makes a lot of sense, because:

- there are far more heterosexual marriages i.e. more variations among people
- qualifications = financial security and ability to afford a wedding and home, or options for having kids (donor, surrogacy, adoption) which can be very expensive
- younger gay people grew up expecting the right to marry. Older people didn't, and often don't see a point in getting married, or hold beliefs of their generation that same sex marriage is just an attempt to emulate straight people instead of being proud of who they are

But sure let's kiss Jess's arse and tell her she's a super special teen genius!!!

I've never read any academic work by Jaimi. (I don't count the Victim Focus reports because they're methodologically very weak, factually inaccurate in places, and not subject to any meaningful review process, plus it's difficult to know how much input Jaimi had in the coauthorship.) When she does publish something based on her own PhD, it wouldn't surprise me to find that it was good. I think there is a real likelihood that she's more academically capable than Jessica, and this is one reason why I think she's in an unenviable position. Jessica might be happy with Jaimi's success providing it's all on her terms and she's deriving some benefit from it too, but I can't imagine she'll be happy if the padawan looks likely to get an academic career. In my twenties I had an abusive partner who was always looking for ways to take me down a peg or two, all in the guise of support. When I won a four-month scholarship to study a language abroad at a prestigious institution (fees, flights, accommodation, living expenses all paid for), a language that would have opened up lots of doors for my research, he reacted explosively. "I can't believe you're thinking of doing that instead of concentrating on your PhD. Your PhD could be amazing. I'm not going to help you fail it by encouraging you with this." Looking back, it's so painfully obvious: he was a linguistics student who enjoyed learning other languages, but no one had ever offered him a £12k scholarship and he was butthurt that I'd got the chance. I'm sad to say that I didn't go. It wouldn't surprise me at all if there isn't a similar dynamic here - one partner who is oh so very "supportive", and one who is only allowed to achieve if that person is OK with it.
 
I sense a narc shitstorm coming up but who knows with her.

Nothing has really been going her way and now she's advertising you can get a half off deal to have her speak ? Didn't Rachel Williams say she was very disappointed with her speaking appointment? And she charges astronomical fees excoet when, for no explicable reason (💰) there's a discounted price ?

Im sorry to read U had such a controlling partner. They really present as caring the most and it's very hard at the time.

Jaimi seems to have her own personality and interests and could potentially be a good academic, or even have a genuine passion for the field which I don't see in Jessica.

Jaimi is only in the limelight or involved as much as Jess allows, which is never a healthy dynamic
 
It’s funny because this is exactly how she sees herself 😂😂

Oh, I thought my first post disappeared, but there it is! The link doesn't work though.

Are we not allowed to link to Facebook here?

Whar I find absolutely off about this advertisement is that it doesn't says anything about the content of the book. All salacious "it's uncomfortable to read" "women are called these names"...ok..sounds like a problem...but what is the book about ? How does it broaches the topics outlined....?

Is it a memoir ? Research? Interwoven both ?

Beyond saying it's challenging and confrontational, what is this book? Have they read it? Has anyone?

I very rarely see anyone saying "ti read this book and it helped me understand abuse and trauma". I'm sure there are exceptions and I could be wrong, but it seems just hype, buy the book, compliment Jess, encourage others to read the book, share image of hot pink cover of the book etc...in a repeat cycle.

Where are the quotes, ideas and points from the book being shared ?

I did see Rachel Williams burning hers lol
 
Her rant today on twitter is quite something. 🙄
All mental illnesses are due to trauma with no biological markers at all, apparently, and that anyone saying that it’s dangerous to suggest this just don’t know because 1000’s message her.
She’s asked folk to name an illness that doesn’t fit this.
There are a few named.
