I'd be interested to know how well-known females are treated compared to their well-known male counterparts (I mean admins, etc, those that people know are female because they've heard of them), although it would seem with the actions of Wikipedia Review, that the answer is going to be "less well".
In at least 3 cases they have been targeted by off-wiki sites, but so have prominent males. There has to be some crack in the armor for effective targeting, but simply being female and aggressive seems to serve.
