“…Indeed, online attitudes, behaviours and perceptions are extensions of offline social processes and relationships in society (Citron, 2014; De Kimpe et al., 2018; Jane, 2016; Li, Coduto & Morr, 2019; Mumporeze & Prieler, 2017). Empirical evidence from many nations such as Russia (Khlomov, Davydov & Bochaver, 2019), Rwanda (Mumporeze & Prieler, 2017), China (Liong & Cheng, 2017; Min & Shen, 2020), Finland (Koiranen et al., 2019), India (Ahmed, Cho & Jaidka, 2017), Taiwan (Lai, Hsieh & Zhang, 2019), Syria (Öztürk & Ayvaz, 2018), Nigeria (Lazarus & Button, in press; Lazarus & Okolorie, 2019), Australia (Hutchings & Chua, 2017), Malaysia (Shaari et al., 2019), Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States (Eckert, 2018) demonstrate the direct connection between online and offline behaviours and relationships.

Do men and women perceive cybercrime types differently? This article draws on the distinction between socio-economic and psychosocial cybercrime proposed by Lazarus (2019) to investigate whether men and women hold different perceptions of digital crimes across these two dimensions. Informed by the synergy between feminist theory and the Tripartite Cybercrime Framework (TCF), our survey examined respondents' differential perceptions of socio-economic cybercrime (online fraud) and psychosocial cybercrime (cyberbullying, revenge porn, cyberstalking, online harassment) among men and women in the United Kingdom. The results revealed that women considered psychosocial cybercrime worse than men. Conversely, we found no differences between men and women with regard to socio-economic cybercrime. The article concludes that psychosocial cybercrimes are more gendered than socio-economic cybercrime, suggesting problems with the meaning of 'cyber-enabled crimes', and substantiating the synergy between the TCF and feminist perspectives.
