Shaheen Shariff said the FHRITP phenomenon is part of a pattern of escalating misogyny on the Internet, in schools and in the public domain generally:听鈥淭his stuff just sustains the pattern that we are seeing in our research with kids and undergrads 鈥� that the more outrageous and misogynist and violent you get, the more impact鈥� on the web and the more hits, she said.听鈥淲e are finding people are saying they aren鈥檛 thinking about victims or who they are hurting, they just want to get hits and make people laugh. 鈥� But what this is is a slap in the face to women. The more powerful women become, and the more equal in terms of occupations and status and sexual liberation, the more violent the behaviour. It is a backlash.鈥�
