It is an example of lack of mathematical (really probability) know how, not naïve pattern matching.

I'd say it's an example of misphrased questions that people will intuitively make sense of, and thus produce strictly incorrect answer.

Obviously, people rephrase the question into : is there more chance that she's a feminist or that she isn't ?

Well, it's multiple-choice. So the "a" answer excludes the "b" answer by convention, and thus implies she isn't a feminist. Rephrase the question to remove that implication and I expect far more people will pick the "a" answer.
