Implications of cyber-stalking law on male victims: evaluating the sociological perspective

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Cyberstalking is an increasingly prevalent form of harassment in the digital age. On the outside, it has laws and regulations that are designed to protect victims. However, the sociological implications of these laws, particularly as they pertain to male victims, have received limited attention. This conference paper aims to shed light on the challenges faced by male victims of cyberstalking and to evaluate the sociological impact of existing laws and regulations. Based on an in-depth analysis of the experiences of male victims, this paper would explore the ways in which gender norms, stereotypes, and societal perceptions intersect with cyberstalking laws and their enforcement.
