[Air-L] question re research on hostility towards women in online communities

Hello All: I was wondering if there is research about hostility/ (verbal) violence against women in online communities? I am particularly interested in this question "is Farsi (Persian) speaking online communities, such as blog sphere and Persian social media are hostile towards women/ female bloggers and online participants?" I would greatly appreciate any feedback. You can email me directly. Thank you, Elham Gheytanchi Sociology, Santa Monica College
