In an ever-evolving digital landscape, feminists confront new obstacles in their quest for gender equality. This paper addresses the escalating issue of digital abuse, where organised groups disseminate hateful content to undermine feminist progress and foster gender inequities. Digital anti-feminism manifests as online misogyny, targeting feminists and pro-feminist ideologies through hate-filled posts, blogs, and videos. Using a comparative approach, the analysis explores the legal frameworks governing sexual harassment, domestic violence, and workplace discrimination in different jurisdictions, focusing on their impact on feminist advocacy. By situating the discussion in the Global South, the paper highlights the unique challenges feminists face in regions where anti-feminist sentiments intersect with cultural, religious, and political ideologies. Special emphasis is placed on the rise of men’s rights activism (MRA) and its evolution into organised anti-feminist movements, particularly in India. The paper identifies the misuse of gender-biased laws and the demand for gender-neutral legal reforms as central to these movements, contributing to the perpetuation of harmful Rise of Digital Antifeminism in the Global South – Kishwar, Khatoon, et.al 46 narratives against women and feminists. By presenting a nuanced understanding of the intersections between anti-feminism and legal biases, the analysis uncovers patterns that fuel digital abuse and violence against feminists. The discussion underscores the urgent need for safeguarding feminist spaces, countering online abuse, and promoting justice through inclusive legal frameworks that address the root causes of anti-feminism without compromising marginalised groups’ safety and rights.
