Tumblr Feminism 

The school of feminist thought that, instead of fighting for gender equality, is more concerned with seeming liberal and feminist and not actually *being* feminist. This is often achieved through strict internet doctrine and openly ostracizing those who do not agree with them. One other symptom of Tumblr Feminism is that, when asked to explain their opinions, sufferers will get angry and storm off rather than actually answering the question. Similar words and ideas include Feminist Nazi, fringe feminists, and feminventing.

Origin: The term "Tumblr Feminism" derives from the social media site Tumblr, which is one of the major gathering places of those with such beliefs. However, Tumblr is not the only site this phenomenon is present, and likewise, not all feminists on Tumblr are true "Tumblr Feminists."
"She told me that I was anti-woman for thinking strip clubs are wrong. Don't strip clubs actually contribute more to the objectifying of women, which is detrimental to female rights?"
"Yeah, don't put much stock into what she says about the matter. She's a Tumblr Femininist."

"Because she believes in Tumblr Feminism, she is against all forms of shaming. Unless, of course, it involves shaming someone who has a different opinion than her."

Tumblr Feminism 

Yet another neologism that cynical young guys use to put down feminism by dividing it's adherents into ever more fragmented subgroups and implying the usual misogynistic traits (narcissism, shallowness, irrationality, etc) instead of trying to learn a single thing about actual feminism or engaging with individuals on a level beyond that required for a supposed gotcha.
So your tumblr feminism is at least something to laugh at, while your typical facebook feminism is just a sad narcissistic joke and of course radical feminism is too extreme and intersectional fourth wave feminism is really just identity politics.

tumblr feminist 

A girl (or boy, but generally a girl) who thinks that re-blogging photos from their parent's basement on a MacBook that they didn't buy with their own money is "being an activist" when in reality they have probably never gone to a protest, fundraiser, or meeting for any social justice organization and probably never will cause any civil change in their lifetime. Similar to a "Facebook Activist" a la the Kony 2012 viral video.

A Tumblr Feminist will also post pictures of themselves naked or half-naked on the internet and claim it is "art" and attack any person who talks about their body (despite the fact they posted their tits on the internet).
"Amy is a total Tumblr Feminist, one time she wrongfully accused that guy of rape just to get some twitter followers."

Tumblr Feminist 

A female, usually a teen or pre-teen, occasionally older, that claims all men are misogynist pigs, and pointlessly whine about the pay gap, or other normal topics which they verbally complain about, but don't actually do anything that will change it. They commonly mistake idealism for sexism, and use countless double standards.
Tom- I heard Katie's a tumblr feminist now
Jake- Yeah, she kept bitching and moaning about men and how they're all pigs
Tom- It's probably because she can't get a boyfriend
