The Preying Mantis subreddit currently has 10,000 followers. Its goal is simple: to ambush creeps online and expose them for the entire internet to feast on. The community has been around since 2018, doing its part to make the world a better place by shaming inappropriate male behavior.

You can argue that communities like Preying Mantis are necessary to combat harassment against women online. Currently, it is only a growing problem that is far from being solved.

According to a 2024 report by UN Women, between 16 and 58 percent of women have experienced some form of unwanted contact online.

According to clinical and forensic psychologist Ahona Guha, victims of online harassment often experience mental health issues like anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and even ideations of self-harm. This is why she urges taking action.

One of her pieces of advice is to be firm in asking for these advances to stop. However, she also recognizes that it only works on some stalkers, not on a troll.

#15 Why Do People Open Conversations This Way?

If all else fails, Guha advises blocking and using legal options as a last resort. The latter would be the recourse if the behavior has become a pattern. She also encourages keeping evidence, such as screenshots.

“It may be tempting to delete everything, but it’s important to screenshot all messages and calls, save emails, log any physical approaches, and keep evidence of any other form of contact,” she wrote, noting that it can help in building a case and involving law enforcement in the future.
