I wouldn't describe Patrick Bateman as lustful. Avaricious, if anything.
Bateman is sexually obsessive, objectifying, impulsive, and inseparable from power and control. He doesnt experience love, intimacy, or connection, only craving, consumption, and domination. He is absolutely lust distilled into its most extreme, destructive form. Definitely elements of avarice to his character too but lust drives him most.
