Korea's 4B Movement Is All Over TikTok Post-Election ― Here's What It Means To 2 Women
Huffington Post ^ | 11 07 2024 | Amy Glover

Posted on 11/07/2024 1:03:04 PM PST by yesthatjallen

At the moment, I’d say about one-sixth of the TikTok videos on my for you page are about Korea’s 4B movement.

UK Google searches for the term have absolutely soared since November 5th ― the day before the US election’s results. The trend seems to apply worldwide.

Pauline Hamilton, who is currently doing “very preliminary” research on the phenomenon in Korea (though she stresses she is “by no means an expert”) revealed that “4B” refers to a sort of online gender strike.

Though Pauline hopes to speak directly with women participating in the 4B movement in the future, she’s currently sharing her broader knowledge on TikTok.

“The 4B movement is an online movement predominantly in South Korea where women are partaking in the four ’B’s,” she explained.

The “B” stands for the Hanja (Korean Chinese characters) word for “no” or “won’t”; within the movement, this is attached to the four actions of sex, child-rearing, marriage, and dating.

4B therefore (roughly) means strict adherents aim to avoid having sex with, dating, marrying, or making babies with men.

The 4B Movent in the US is a reaction to Trump winning.

Aristophanes had a similar idea 2000 years ago.

What are “2 Women”?

Is that a euphemism for mistress?

Lib women are helping us pro-lifers by not getting pregnant.

Although the exact membership remains uncertain, some unverified estimates suggest a range of 500 to 4,000 claimed participants.[13]

Has anyone else noticed that online articles never actually tell you much, particularly in the top half of the article. They blabber a bunch of crap to string out the length of the article and deliver very little substance, let alone actually being fully informative.

It’s all about placing a bunch of ads down the page and stringing along the reader.

I hate clicking on anything anymore.

Oh yeah, and get off my lawn!

Buy stocks of boxed-wine brands, and cat litter manufacturers.

Guaranteed to make a mint.

avoid having sex with, dating, marrying, or making babies with men.

In other words, young women are catching up to young men in wanting to stay in perpetual adolescence.

Those lysestrada movements always fail because women need resources that men offer. Through all of human history they’ve traded that for access to sex child rearing and taking care of the home. It is always been thus.

Basically they don’t know how to build bridges and airplanes or cars. And they need men for that.

Be careful what you ask for, all you 4B ladies,(social separation from the opposite sex) because you might just get it . Listen to singer Betty Wright describe how playing hard to get worked out for her, in the song “Clean Up Woman,”.
Refrain,: “A Clean Up Woman is the woman who gets all the love you girls leave behind”

The “Voluntary Human Extinction Movement” was all the rage a few years back, but the club’s numbers seem to have dwindled. I predict the same with the 4B Movement.

The lovely ladies who want to go “4B” are generally the type with whom no sane man would consort.

CCP-Chinese engineered division in South Korean society; like all the feminist and woke memes in the U.S. That is why TikToc is such a part of it. No doubt TickTocs algorthyms are lifting up the “4B” TicTocers.

5000 out of a population of 51.5 million?

That’s not a movement, it’s an echo chamber of a few nut cases and probably actually started by Russians and Norks who want to further depress the already very sad SK birthrate.

Exactly.

Compare how little you can glean from the Huffington Post article to the Wiki link that dfwgator posted.

I got the gist of it inside of 30 seconds from the wiki page. The Huff article I had to try to reread and still had no idea what they were trying to say.

No wonder all these media sites are dying and firing people and trying harder and harder to lure people with sensationalist click-bait headlines. They don’t care that they are killing themselves as long as they are getting short-term revenue.
