The captivated sexual parts of the prostitutes was a shock to the repressed female society in the Victorian times.
Men could only project their sexual fantasies, anxieties and fears through rumours and detail from the ripper's murders.
The detectives could only enforce a rational ego to catch the murderer and restore society.
Of course, the police weren't successful because, they themselves were involved in the dramatic stories of the ripper.
The frenzy only grew, spreading to rural areas in London.
Although, people lived in a safe neighbourhood they could not forget the danger lurking around the corner.
The ripper obsession resulted in the queen's pardon for the killer to come forward in avoidance of being charged.
Society identified with the crimes so strongly, that people started to protest about how unfit the police were to catch the killer.
Of course, this started to became boring, so new rumor started to circulate the streets of east London, through news papers influences and Chinese whippers.
New speculation focus on prince Edward being involved with a lower class shop girl , so he started killing ever one that might have known about the affair in an effort to silence the black mailer.
News papers started to report on the murders in a more dramatic manner. The ripper was then named as the, 'leather apron', due to the butchering technical.
Victorians didn't advanced technology as we have in the 21st century so so a murder was more entertaining than sitting in front of a black and white television watching how one ought to be a good house wife or a successful business man.
People began to spy on there neighbours and verbal communication increased in effort to catch people as the killer.
doctors were scrutinised due to the fascinating knowledge of the ripper's dissection.
People started to commit copy cat crimes, and others confessed to the crimes to pursue the thrill of killing without committing.
- So why did the obsession of the ripper grew so much without a high media influence?
- Victorian England felt , that immoral actions were not something one should speak of, let alone practice, Jack the ripper murders were the first immoral acts, the public had to deal with.
- Speaking of the ripper actions was a direct approach to understand immoral actions
- The upper class felt they had no part in participating in immoral acts however they were intrigued.
- There views expressed that immoral actions tented to belong to the lower class, although everyone knew that people in the upper class were also indulging in immoral acts.
People took advantage of the situation, expressing unrespectable feelings, towards Jews.
Anti Semites began when rumors circulated and people started to believe the ripper was a Rabi.b The rumor encouraged English rationalism and racism.
Women began to talk about sex openly and wax Muslims made wax representations of the murders so, people have a visual fascination.
The idea of a subbasement Innocent female souls was no longer in forced because women were now met with immoral fantasies, this meant women had a visual participation in sexual violence, therefore women could voluntarily commit crimes men could commit. This introduced the idea, that the ripper could have been a women.
women had never felt such excitement before.
