The NUS Women's Campaign, which states that it "exists to represent and extend and defend the rights of women students," is asking people to be "mindful" about clapping, as the loud noise could be "triggering" for some people.
Instead, the group is asking members to use "jazz hands," as they are silent.
This is not a joke. This is the actual tweet that went out:

I guess using an air horn is out of the question.
Textbook clinical insanity on an institutional level.
Looks like what someone would do if they were suicidal and on a battlefield....
(or suicidal and in my front yard first thing in the morning)
Now I know why guys are going to parts of Asia like Thailand, and then South American nations such as Argentina, Brazil for wife hunting, because females are becoming crazy here, and the culture is more traditional in those places.
OH GOD.
After watching that I have to quickly go outside and cut down a tree with my chainsaw and down a stiff shot of Jack Daniels.
I could feel my manliness being sucked out of me.
Cheese and Crackers!
There are hundreds of internet memes devoted to Jazz Hands.
Never heard of it.
Oh well, since I nor anyone I know is queer or a feminist, that explains that.
I have no idea what that means.
Someone give that man a tool belt and a naked woman. STAT!
A group of feminist students worried about triggering the clap? That sounds about right...
“Jazzman”
Lift me, won’t you lift me above the old routine
Make it nice, play it clean, Jazzman
When the Jazzman’s testifyin’
A faithless man believes
He can sing you into paradise
Or bring you to your knees
It’s a gospel kind of feelin’
A touch of Georgia slide
A song of pure revival
And a style that’s sanctified
Jazzman, take my blues away
Make my pain the same as yours
With every change you play
Jazzman, oh, Jazzman
it reminds of when i went to st francis elementary school. the nuns told us to do a “fairy clap”, which was just clapping the first two fingers of each hand.
At La Leche League, people would wave instead of clapping, so as not to disturb nursing or sleeping babies.
Feminism is nothing but evidence for the very stereotypes that they attempt to fight: that women are irrational and driven by emotion.
Clapping is triggering anxiety?Just increase their meds,they’ll be fine.
For people who ask “can the left keep getting any crazier?”
No.....JUST NO.
This is just too out there to be real.
No, nevermind. I can totally see these morons saying this.
