‘No man will touch me until I have my rights back’: why is the 4B movement going viral after Trump’s win?
The Guardian ^ | Thu 7 Nov 2024 | Alaina Demopoulos

Posted on 11/11/2024 8:52:56 AM PST by MinorityRepublican

McKenna, who is 24 and lives in a rural, conservative state, recently got back on dating apps after a year of finding herself. She had two first dates planned for this weekend, but after Donald Trump won the election, she cancelled both.

“It’s heartbreaking to know that in this country you only matter if you’re a straight white man,” she said. “It’s just devastating that we’re at this point. So I will not let another man touch me until I have my rights back.”

McKenna, who did not want her last name published for privacy reasons, first heard about 4B a few months ago, via a TikTok video referring to the South Korean social movement. The basic idea: women swear off heterosexual marriage, dating, sex and childbirth in protest against institutionalized misogyny and abuse. (It is called 4B in reference to these four specific no-nos.) The mostly online movement began around 2018 protests against revenge porn and grew into South Korea’s #MeToo-esque feminist wave.

In the wake of Trump’s victory, 4B is once again on McKenna’s mind – and she’s not the only one.

Trump’s embrace of manosphere figures such as Joe Rogan, the Nelk Boys and Adin Ross means he has strong support among their evangelists – mainly, young men. But for young women, the former president’s long history of misogyny means a vote for Trump is a vote against feminism, especially with reproductive rights as a key issue in 2024.

Well, I guess the good thing about this is that they actually are capable of practising abstinence. Too bad it’s for the wrong reasons.

This truly is win-win stuff. Crazy now women going celibate, which means they will have no need for abortions, no uninvolved dads due to their thinking they don’t need men and no children born to these nutjobs to experiment with for their lgbt+eieio bs.

Because liberals will watch it to sympathize and conservatives will watch it to laugh and either way they will make much lovely lolly.

No matter how cynical you are about Yubers and Tokers it is not enough.

The Left thinks they can create something “viral” by getting a comment from one out of 150 million American women, 35 million of whom voted for Trump.

“I’m not going to have sex because I don’t want babies.” Yeah, that’s kinda how it’s SUPPOSED to work.

This is fine. Given that women outnumber anyway, this leave more men for natural women to choose from.
