Being surrounded by a group of drunk blokes is physically intimidating in a way that being surrounded by a group of women is not. There's an inherent difference.
That doesn't mean groups of females can't be intimidating in other ways, or even that they can't be physically intimidating (e.g. there are plenty of female gangs in the big cities who will absolutely **** up your face) but that's clearly not what's going on here.
Again I'm not condoning the behaviour of either group, just pointing out that it's not intimidating in the same way as it would be if they were males. Pretending there "isn't a difference"... well it's just a lie isnit.

It's not really the point in this thread though. If we're talking about the potential dangers of a group of drunk men vs a group of drunk women, then yeah, I'd absolutely agree but we're not. We're talking about 2 situations that we have video evidence for.
I'd also argue that in this specific situation, the dangers of a group of tory dudes saying "legend, we luv you and Boris", would also be inherently different to a group of LW dudes accusing him of murdering over 100k people, but again, it's not really the point.
