Emotional regulation is a skill poorly performed by folks of all genders. We make fun of man-babies, and crazy bitches alike. Perhaps it is a virtue to maximise one's ratio of (irritating-to-others)-to-(irritability-of-self) ... we're not all trolls, though I am clearly predisposed to be one, myself.
Trolling and the manosphere are light and dark sides of the same coin. Trolling is a lens on the adolescent activity of competitive pain tolerance. Adolescence approach this rite of passage in more or less gendered ways of course. Sports are generally understood as athletics of the developmental sort.
It is probably well documented how the rituals of both antagonisation, and support, are practiced by groups of young and old, women, men, and those who find themselves in between this crude dichotomy.
