The concept of the narcissistic pervert has invaded our screens and magazines in recent years. It's used a lot, but sometimes wrongly or without full understanding.
So what is it really about? The term was first defined in 1986 by French psychoanalyst Paul-Claude Racamier. He said that narcissistic perverts have a prevailing need to boost their own self-esteem at the expense of others, and actually take pleasure from doing so.
What actually is a narcissistic pervert? Aren't we all a little like that? What makes narcissistic perverts different? Are narcissistic perverts dangerous to be around? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
