EXCERPTS:
******
Citron introduces three real-life cases, schematically simplified, that convey the range and variety of cyberabuse. All involve women, and Citron cites data showing that a large proportion of cyberharassment involves female victims and male perpetrators (though because of underreporting, reliable data are hard to come by). A female tech blogger suddenly found herself the victim of obscene and threatening attacks by a “cyber-mob” instigated by the notorious Internet troll “weev,” and the resulting fear led her to withdraw from blogging, a major part of her career. A female law student was among the many who were targeted by name and subjected to pornographic descriptions of their alleged sexual activities on the website AutoAdmit, which was created as a forum for law students and applicants but quickly degenerated when male law students began using it to abuse their female peers. The resulting Internet exposure impaired the law student’s employment opportunities: a Google search of her name still pulls up the offending posts. A third woman was targeted for revenge by an ex-lover with whom she had entrusted nude photos. He posted these on a revenge-porn site along with her e-mail and a link to her work address, of course without her consent; she subsequently received hundreds of lewd and frightening messages from men who “could not wait to have sex with her.” To these three cases I shall add that of S, as it is less schematic and messier, and it gives me a chance to raise questions about causation that the schematic anecdotes do not.

Perhaps the first question one should pose is whether “hatred” is really the right rubric. Cases involve quite a lot of different motivations. The ex-lover wanted revenge, which is not exactly the same thing as hatred, but at least it lies close. The law students on AutoAdmit probably were motivated by a mixture of anxiety and envy, given that they targeted highly successful female law students at a time when women are posing new competitive challenges to young men. And S? Well, I suppose I’d have to mention fear first, but also envy, love, emulation and despair. So the real question is: Why do so many different cases produce aggressive male outbursts directed at women?

Well no shit, men don't whine about random anonymous people saying mean things to them on the interweb.
