Why Do Most Internet Trolls Targeting Women?

[971]

women and girls are the main target for trolls on INTERNET (facebook,twitter,Yahoo answers,etc)

If she is above 30 and a woman lock stock and barrel I am going after her and trolling is the last thing on my mind because if you want to conquer her you gotta win her ....

the problem arises when you go after someone and she turns out to be from the cradle ...because of this lousy internet anonymity ...she might sound like a mature woman but she ain't ...goddammit!!!!

So the best one can do is make her your daughter and love her and stand by her and yes internet relationships do happen mate.

Why do women only want to victimize themselves?

I have always asked this myself - it does seem there are a lot of nasty men always asking questions to humiliate women here and if a woman acknowledges she gets told, "you are victimizing yourself" - to these guys the women are always wrong. The answer may be they are narcissistic. Check out the article below:

"Narcissistic heterosexual men target their hostility primarily at heterosexual women, the objects of their desires"

Do you mean individual people being cyber stalked and harrased online on websites like Facebook, Twitter etcetera? That I can believe since females often are very jealous of other females and will go to great lengths to make their lives difficult. I've seen studies about this and have heard this from every single female I've ever talked to about female bullying. This type of problem is why many females have told me that they don't at all like other females and prefer being friends with males or only friends with their relationship partners. In general on online forums and in comment sections underneath articles and videos, I'd say that the vasy majority of bigotry is directed at certain races and ethncities. Sexist websites are nowhere near as known or as popular for bigoted people as Stormfront.org, N*ggermania etcetera are.

Edit 1: By the way, if there were categories concerning specific ethnicities or races on Yahoo Answers, they'd be far worse than Gender Studies could ever be.

Because they mean no real harm, unlike the real-life "trolls" who, for instance, fight for legislation harmful to men and blame men for any perceived problem in the world.

Because men are big babies. If they can't attract women, they harass them.

It's actually males who are the victims of online trolling:

I guess they just know how to handle it better.

Also, what constitutes as online trolling or cyber bullying by a male? Is it when that teenage boy named Nash Grier and his friends made a video describing what they found attractive in a girl which outraged thousands of teenage girls?

I think girls need to grow thicker skin.

@Ya Coffee: the majority of the feminists on this site don't have actual images of themselves - they are not showing anything for narcissistic males to desire. I think that plays an important part regarding that study: the narcissistic males knowing what their victim looks like to see if they are desirable. You might as well be a male feminist.
