"Strong", "independent" feminist women terrorised by clapping! Really!?

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.



Whooping is fun for some, but can be super inaccessible for others, so please try not to whoop! Jazz hands work just as well



If clapping and whooping is too much for some women to bear, how are they going to cope with serious responsibility and immense stress as CEOs or world leaders?

"Why aren't there more women in public leadership roles?"

"Women, you shouldn't have to handle people clapping. It's too much for you. We'll stop them."

OP it's okay that you're gay. You don't need to be a mysogynist about it :rolleyes:
You're so sad. Spending your time purposely seeking out articles such as this.


I may aswell find articles giving bad examples of Muslims (extremists) and use it to push an anti-Muslim argument.
And then sit back and say look how ridiculous these Muslims are.
And there are women world leaders believe it or not, and they have actually coped.
