It's not exclusive to woman either -- guys (especially young guys) watch police bodycams of shootings, combat footage, and gore-porn TV shows or movies. There were entire subreddits dedicated to actual videos/pictures of people dying -- and I'll give you one guess as to what the demographics of their user bases were.

It's almost as if a lot of people are morbidly curious about death and violence.
