Misogynistic behavior and target classification

The task consists on:

1. The recognition of the targets, that can be either specific users or groups of women (binary classification)
2. Identification of the type of misogyny against women (multi-class classification). A tweet must be classified as belonging to one of the following categories:
   •  Stereotype & Objectification: a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a woman; description of women’s physical appeal and/or comparisons to narrow standards.
   • Dominance: to assert the superiority of men over women to highlight gender inequality.
   • Derailing: to justify woman abuse, rejecting male responsibility; an attempt to disrupt the conversation in order to redirect women’s conversations on something more comfortable for men.
   • Sexual Harassment & Threats of Violence: to describe actions as sexual advances, requests for sexual favours, harassment of a sexual nature; intent to physically assert power over women through threats of violence.
   • Discredit: slurring over women with no other larger intention.
