What do Mayanti Langer, Priyanka Chopra, Sonakshi Sinha have in common? Twitter trolls

The internet is a tough place for a woman to be. Especially if you are famous. Especially if you speak your mind. Mayanti Langer, who is a sports anchor married to cricketer Stuart Binny was at the receiving end of a lot of hate on Twitter because of Binny’s under-performance at the T20. She was subjected to many trolls on twitter who alleged that she was the reason behind her husband’s poor performance on the field.

Langer is just one of the many women out there who have been subjected to trolls on Twitter unnecessarily.

Images from News 18.[/caption] A news report by website Index On Censorship explained that a study on women and verbal online abuse in India (done by the Internet Democracy Project) revealed that internet users expect women to be servile and think they have the right to discipline women through by using abusive language. The also study compared the outright misogyny that women face on the street to the hate women face on Twitter. While there many trolls who set out to shame women for the way they think, what they wear and everything about them, here are a few women who have had the last word on their trolls: Priyanka Chopra Remember when people were making fun of Priyanka Chopra’s photoshopped armpits on a magazine cover? The internationally acclaimed actress hit back at haters by posting this picture:

Sonakshi Sinha The Akira actress once took to Twitter when Mumbai’s Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation proposed a four-day ban on meat observing the Jain festival of fasting. She tweeted:
