Sociopaths are people who have little to no conscience. They also possess a low moral sense, as well as a history of crime, legal problems, or impulsive and aggressive behavior.

A person with antisocial personality disorder. Probably the most widely recognized personality disorder. A sociopath is often well liked because of their charm and high charisma, but they do not usually care about other people. They think mainly of themselves and often blame others for the things that they do. They have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly. They seldom feel guilt or learn from punishments. Though some sociopaths have become murders, most reveal their sociopathy through less deadly and sensational means.

A layperson's term for somebody with antisocial personality disorder: somebody who lacks a conscience. This is somebody who knows right from wrong, but doesn't care because he/she does not think in those terms; they care about their own benefit, regardless of who is in the way.
The sociopath is very often thought of as a serial killer, but that represents only a small portion of them; sociopaths can be anybody.
Sociopaths come in these basic types:
Common: A simple lack of conscience and lack of proper integration into society, they're feral children grown up.
Alienated: Alienated from other people, they have trouble empathizing with others.
Aggressive: Comes with a consistent sadistic streak.
Dissocial: Abides by gang rules and morals that antagonize mainstream society.

The sociopath generally holds at least three of the following seven traits:
1. Failure to conform to social norms, including behavior that warrants arrest.
2. Deception; they're glib, pathological liars, and manipulators, often use false names.
3. Impulsive behavior; failure to plan ahead.
4. Irritable and aggressive, frequent fights or attacks.
5. Reckless disregard for the safety of self or others.
6. Consistently irresponsible; their work behavior is often inconsistent, they can be catastrophic parents.
7. Without remorse; will justify stealing or hurting others ("if you hadn't dressed like that, I wouldn't have raped you").

A mental disorder which doesn't unnecessarily make the person a killer but still a lack of moral values. Sociopaths make their way into organizations as the figure head due to their extremely manipulative and observant behaviors.
Unlike common belief sociopaths differ from psychopaths due to their ability to think a situation through and put on a "mask" for what their surroundings would fit.

A Sociopath is an individual who lacks a conscience.These individuals are opportunists and have extremely high IQ's which they use to their advantage.

Sociopaths are social geniuses who are constantly making split second calculations. They use the scientific method and tend to know all variables in a social setting. Sociopaths are like chameleons, they can blend into anything they need to be at the time. Sociopaths are known to be hilarious people with many friends.They always win arguments because they see things that normal people see. They can find the smallest inconsistencies and hone in on them.

We have interviewed females that have dated Sociopaths, and they all said the same thing; Sociopaths are amazing in bed. They have powerful sex drives along with uncanning skill. Sociopaths don't feel love, due to an under active part of the brain called the Amygdala. Since they are incapable of loving, they substitute it for lust. Keep a sociopath in your life but do not get attached to them romantically. In simpler terms, don't expect to get married to them, instead have sex with them.

Never cross a sociopath. You will regret it and you will never be comfortable with yourself ever again. Sociopaths will crush you if you get in their way. You have been warned.

A sociopath is someone with a social metal disorder that either causes them to lack a moral compass, have a moral compass that doesn't really point north, or ignore their moral compass. There are two basic types of sociopath; inherent and noninherent. Inherent sociopaths are often less moral than noinherent sociopaths considering they never were taught right from wrong. Many people have come to think of sociopaths as emotionless assholes that manipulate and do not value other humans. Although most extreme cases find this to be true, some sociopaths are actually NOT evil serial killers like Ted Bundy or brutal fascists like Adolf Hitler. I myself am a sociopath, and am actually able to feel emotions, contrary to popular belief, he'll, I've even had several steady relationships. Anyway, several qualities about sociopaths actually differ greatly with society's views.
