Feminists discourage clapping to avoid triggering anxiety
 
1 Attachment(s)
"Clapping has been discouraged at the U.K.'s NUS Women's Campaign Conference (a conference for feminist university students in the United Kingdom) due to the fact that it may be triggering anxiety among delegates. Attendees are now encouraged to use "feminist jazz hands" to display approval of a speech or topic."

inb4 jazz hands are too much to handle so they resort to spirit fingers.

this shit is fucking stoopid!

Tr1ll 03-25-2015 10:47 AM

How do they expect people to actually take them seriously

Hot Karl 03-25-2015 11:01 AM

the sound of women triggers my anxiety. so women please refrain from speaking around me unless i tell you to speak.

if you do need to communicate simply remove your top and get jazzy with your tits.

Nabatron 03-25-2015 11:06 AM

Better accomodate for the visually impared, the hearing impared, the finger amputees, the hand amputees, and so on. No one can or will be able attend. Works for me

they will be crushed in the real world.

Sounds a lot like CIC, pretty soon they'll be filing with the UN because of the PTSD from others clapping in the vicinity.

Show this Weiser's Club slow clap video to those feminists.

It will rustle their feathers for sure: :lawl:

How in the fuck can clapping cause anxiety? They should be talking to a medical professional, not forcing people to bend to their special snowflake bullshit.

tarobbt 03-25-2015 09:58 PM

They got anxiety because clapping is associated with having the clap

Tone Loc 03-25-2015 10:20 PM

... and these same people wonder why feminism is never taken seriously. I miss a world where none of this white knight/social justice warrior bullshit existed and people didn't act like being "offended" or "uncomfortable" was a violation of their human rights.

I mean, I support women being equal to men as much as the next person, but these people sure make feminism hard to support.

vafanculo 03-25-2015 11:12 PM

I'll just leave this here

i would thank you 10x if i could.

asian_XL 03-26-2015 05:37 AM

why do I see men in the crowd?

underscore 03-26-2015 06:32 AM

As a side note, if a speaker doesn't know people are doing this bullshit instead of clapping they're going to feel pretty shitty to finish their piece and get silence and a bunch of people waving at them, a hell of a lot shittier than some one who is mildly inconvenienced by clapping.
