The perception that women are harassed/threatened more is probably differentiated from your experience by a couple factors:
1. It includes people who are not broadcast figures, which is the vast majority of people. It's possible that, in public, in the workplace, and in school, a woman is more likely to be harassed than a man.
2. The nature of harassment/threats against women is probably biased towards the more emotion-provoking (sinister, intimidating, sexual, etc). I.e. the kinds of things that tend to engender more concern, in the sense of how bad it feels to imagine/witness, how likely it is to come to something more, the likelihood of a power imbalance (physical or otherwise), and its long-term effects on the recipient.
