I think part of it may be a mans idea of harassment is different than a womans idea of harassment.
Like if people are talking shit to me I don't consider that harassment where a woman may

From my experiences from when I played games I don't think I ever saw a girl in a game not getting hounded by people though.
On the flip side a lot of girls online are hailed as something special and given a shit load of positive attention too

Oh cmon, women get harassed way more than men.

As a woman in this community I can say yes ... it's a male dominated community ..so most of the harressment has come from people who struggle to understand a woman on here ...if something isn't the norm to some people ...they fear it ...with fear comes hatred.


Not all people though ☺

Definitely more so in current context.

We definitely do, online it's can be easier to avoid it, but you can't go blocking someone in real life. Well, you can, but it's not as easy! lol

This is what I agree with.
You could flame, shit talk me, threaten & spam me but that's not really what i'd consider harassment.

Only time I'd consider I've been harassed online is when a IRL stalker made fake accounts on FB to post bullshit on my wall & called the police on me random times at night.

Depends where they go online and what they say and do. most females hide there identity or just pretend they are male as they dont want to deal with the harassment. for an example, if a girl goes online gaming they get harrassed 9 times out of 10

Haha, probably not true. Theyre more likely to report it.

Let's assume they are looking at statistics for the most common websites.

Reddit.
Facebook.
YouTube.
Twitter.
Instagram.
Twitch.
Tumblr.

>> Ok so at which point can you say that any of those mean women get harassed more than men? I even disagree on the idea that they have more sexual harassment.

As far as I am concerned, i've been harassed 10x more than the average female internet user - that comes down the the activity you partake in, which more posts/activity anywhere online is male.

As far as Tumblr, Instagram and Twitter - well that's not the internet.

This is the same with skin color, religion or anything else.

are they sure they are even real women? haha

Men certainly get far more harassment than women.

Because of a couple reasons.

There are more men to be harassed.

Men don’t have white knights jumping out to attack their every critic.

It’s far more acceptable to harass a man and doing so would have little to no consequences for the harasser unlike harassing a woman.

Well yeah if you take slutty pictures of yourself with your tits almost out and in sexual poses like you want dick in the cunt, asshole and mouth all the time.
Stick to the kitchen and make me a big ol' sammach.
