We didn’t watch Mean Girls and think damn I want to emulate Regina George. It was a social critique on a phenomenon that existed before the film. Just like men compete with other men. Women compete with women. I’ve yet to interact with a troll presenting as male on here and think it’s actually a woman behind the keyboard. I have dealt with npubs presenting as women and think I’m pretty sure that’s a man behind the keyboard though. I’ve encountered both male and female trolls on Nostr. Men and women troll differently online, just like in real life.

No one wants to be her, but they'll become her to protect their perceived territory But, you're still only guessing People possess the ability to write in diffent voices, if we weren't fiction novels wouldn't exist Nothing changes, highschool bulling just doesn't go away Especially, when their no accountability or repercussions

The way a male novelist writes women is very different than women write women. Even painters, sculptors, etc their artwork of women is very different than what a woman creates. A friend and I have a game in art museums where any art depicting women we say from a distance if we think the artist is male or female. Haven’t been wrong yet. Just like with artwork, trolls have little tells. So far the only issues I’ve had with women on Nostr are the ones obsessed with Dorsey. One of those I believe to be a man pretending to be a woman obsessed with him. 🤷🏼‍♀️
