Researcher Felix Kiprono and his colleagues recently released a report about Kenya's alarming rise in female killings as the country is reeling from at least 10 reported murders of women in the first month of the year alone.
One gruesome killing involved a victim whose dismembered remains were found stuffed into a plastic bag at a short-term rental apartment.
Titled Silencing Women, he says the report "aims to shed light on the disturbing reality of women's lives at risk, providing crucial information to address victim blaming, under-reporting and to inspire meaningful action".
But Mr Kiprono has been appalled by the reaction to its findings, in particular on social media which is sometimes described in Kenya as a "manosphere" - a network of online platforms focusing on the promotion of masculinity and opposed to feminism.
