Last week's presidential election in South Korea featured two candidates who advanced radically different visions to the electorate.
Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party of Korea campaigned on a platform of progressive policies such as 30% gender quotas for females. "I think it's very important to acknowledge the inequalities and issues of gender inequality that women suffer structurally in our society," he emphasized.
Lee's opponent was Yoon Suk-yeol of the conservative People Power Party. Yoon ran on an openly anti-feminist platform. He called for the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and accused its officials of treating men like "potential sex criminals." He promised to enhance punishments for false accusations of sexual violence. Yoon also charged that Marxist-inspired feminist ideology undermines healthy relationships between men and women.
Yoon's charges were buoyed by a 2021 poll in which 84% of Korean men in their twenties, and 83% in their thirties, said they had experienced "serious gender-based discrimination." And the anti-feminist group "New Men on Solidarity" reportedly has 15,000 Facebook followers.
Yoon's improbable campaign was propelled by outrage over a feminist group named Megalia that promoted an image of a thumb and index finger held closely together, seemingly mocking the size of the male genitalia.
Last Wednesday, Yoon emerged the winner, carried largely by male voters who felt marginalized by the Democratic Party's gender policies. An exit poll showed that 59% of men in their 20s and 53% of those in their 30s marked Yoon on their ballot paper.

(im not kidding)
Apparently the feminazi poison propaganda campaign has a couple of more generations to go in Korea. They need to back off and do it incrementally like they did in the USA, Canada, Europe, etc.
Great to see there are places where men are regaining their self respect.
Regime change by the woke US is in their future.
Ministry of Gender Equality sounds very..... North Korean
Yoon’s improbable campaign was propelled by outrage over a feminist group named Megalia that promoted an image of a thumb and index finger held closely together, seemingly mocking the size of the male genitalia.
“Yoon also charged that Marxist-inspired feminist ideology undermines healthy relationships between men and women”.
Interesting. I justbrea dlast night that was the same belief Hugh Hefner had, and although I know he had a poor reputation with his behavior with the opposite sex, especially now with the stories coming out from Secrets of Playboy, I do think he had a good point. The attraction of men to women being treated by feminists as if men are ‘potential sex criminals’ is an interesting and good point.
Although the ‘Playboy way of life’ is a bit dubious reference on Hef’s part.
“These chicks are our natural enemy,” Braudy recounted Hefner writing in his 1969 memo. “We must destroy them before they destroy the Playboy way of life.”
"Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth" in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada) is Marci Ien, a former broadcaster.
Please let this be a trend to rational thinking.
Anonymity
Like the Japanese website 2channel, the freedom to post anonymously is one of the distinctive features of DC Inside which shapes its unique culture. When posting something in a gallery or adding comments to other members’ post, users may identify themselves in any way they want; a formal registration or log in process wasn’t available and added as an option on 2007. This encourages users not only to communicate with one another more casually and expressively, but often to insult and abuse one another more readily.[3]

South Korea is crying out for Regime Change.”
True, once the Bidenistas get their way on Ukraine, it’s off to South Korea.
Oh, wait...
These are the actual statistics that compare the status of men and women in South Korea:
Life Expectancy: Men in South Korea have much shorter life spans than women: 80.5 years versus 86.5 years.
Occupational Deaths: A national survey of occupational deaths found higher mortality rates across the board. For example, among machine operators and assemblers, the mortality rate was 380 males per 100,000 workers, compared to only 158 females per 100,000 workers.
Suicide: In 2020, there were 35.5 male and 15.9 female deaths by suicide per 100,000 population — more than a twofold difference.
University Enrollments: In 2005, identical numbers of high school students enrolled in college. Since then, the gap steadily widened. By 2018, 73.8% of females, compared to only 65.9% of males, were enrolling in universities.
Dating Violence: A survey of dating violence among university students found that females were far more likely than men to be abuse perpetrators: 39.4% of females admitted to assaulting their partners, compared to only 24.7% of men.
The media’s reflexive hysteria over Yoon’s election reveals how the media consistently misrepresent the gender equality debate.
Sounds like Yoon is South Korea’s Trump.
There’s a broader lesson to be gleaned from the media’s hyperventilation over Yoon’s alleged “weaponization” of the gender equality debate. The reality is, the feminist movement long ago abandoned its quest for equal opportunity for women.

Tough kim-chee, media!
