"The election of Donald Trump has sparked a surge of interest in the United States in South Korea’s 4B movement, a radical feminist crusade that preaches the four B’s: bi-hon (no marriage), bi-yeonae (no dating), bi-sekseu (no sex) and bi-chulsan (no childbirth),” the Los Angeles Times reports.

“Since Nov. 5, there have been more than 500,000 Google searches for ‘4b movement,’ while on TikTok, Instagram and X, support for the cause has been trending among young women voters who are vowing to swear off men.”

    Women can take care of themselves or each other.

    But yeah, the human libido will take charge sometimes. They’re just worried it’ll be men taking charge regardless of their wishes.

      Men can take care of themselves if they decide to and there is something like this (or there ued to be, I haven’t heard of it lately), called MGTOW. But it wasn’t particularly useful. Whereas it was useful to draw attention to the suffragettes, so it worked there.
