As a person who has watched this kind of thing happen a lot: I think a lot. I had a bunch of friends on tumblr who wrote and exchanged very similar fiction and art. The ones who were known to be trans, female, enbies, or non-white got harassed a lot. The one who was understood to be a white cis male got left alone. And this is on tumblr, where the ostensible position of a large part of the user base is that white cis males are Bad People by default...

So yeah, pretty sure it's that. I almost never get harassed by people who think I'm cis male, the bulk of the harassment came from people who thought I was transmasc.

Probably the furry stuff too, which is honestly sort of terrifying, do these people not know how much infrastructure relies on stressed and overworked furries?
