Autumn is a 24-year-old cisgender queer Muslim, who posted this:

“Hands up if large groups of aggressively loud

white boys in your vicinity freak you out.”

To which spyderqueen (“mental health stuff, feminist rantings”) added:

“One of the things that bonds women, POC, and LGBTQA+ together: The fear of white men in numbers.”

That comment got more than 300,000 likes and reblogs in nine months. This is what feminism is really about: The promotion of completely irrational (but politically useful) fear.

My advice to “white boys” is: Always travel in large groups and be aggressively loud, because it makes feminists freak out.
