An online game wanted to test that, actually! It's kinda cool. They made four generic AI bots, two were lady avatars and had lady names. Two were male and had male names. These bots just ran around and did generic play things and the game people logged how many harassing messages they got.

The man-bots got an average of 3.5 each, per day.

The lady-bots got 112.3 each, per day.

Let me repeat, these were bots. They weren't doing anything except existing, and they certainly weren't talking about anything controversial.

They discovered if anything, women vastly under-report death threats and harassment online.

Interesting. Link? I'd be interested in seeing more of the game this is from.

I'm not finding the exact study, but http://www.ece.umd.edu/News/news_story.php?id=1788 is a similar one.

That is incredibly depressing.
