Why do you think is that?
TN is a mother and posts about her kids a lot, its hella tougher to target her for women hate abuse. I, however, am unmarried and ridiculously good looking. Who are the Internet lost boys going to pick for their target?
It also doesn't help that TN and I have different reactions to this stuff, where she gets hurt and upset and usually leaves, I will fight back. And we all know how much the Internet tough guys hate that.
I don't post radically differently from a lot of other people on this forum, but I'm the target of significantly more abuse, and oddly enough, that abuse is 99 times out of 100 deeply tinged with sexism, if it's not just overtly sexist like quarrr.
These things are not actually my problem, I'm not a worse person for the things misogynists say to me.
