Trolls tailor their behavior for maximum impact. If the target is female, the trolling will focus on insults that affect women. If the target is male, the trolling will focus on insults that affect men.
The same strategy applies to torture.
Point being: bad people attack you where you are most vulnerable, and this is universal. When we start singling out certain characteristics or identities as especially vulnerable, and worthy of greater charges and protections, we are creating different tiers of justice.
Interesting side note: if some people are sexist trolls because they are hostile towards women, what does that make the entirety of mainstream media, government, and academia for being hostile towards men?
