"No dating men, no sex with men, no heterosexual marriage and no childbirth. These are the four principles of South Korea’s 4B movement..."

"... a radical feminist movement that gained popularity in 2019, in response to sexism, hidden camera pornography and intimate partner violence. Following Donald Trump’s victory, some American women have sought out the movement.... Some American women are already devising plans to apply used menstrual pads to trucks with MAGA stickers and undergo voluntary hysterectomy surgery. TikTok and Instagram reels videos related to the 4B movement gained millions of views this week, and Google searches spiked in the U.S. on Wednesday, most notably in Democratic states. Trump’s win was devastating for many women. Their rage is understandable, but a 4B-style reaction is not constructive or sustainable...."

Writes Kami Rieck, in "A Sex Strike Is a Losing Strategy for American Women" (NYT).

And now you see how Tik-Tok is being used to undermine American society. They're literally convincing American women that this stuff is real.

When it's Chinese psy-op bullshit.

Tump should delete Tik-Tok and shut it down. We are in a new era where we don't allow the nations of our enemies to use our system to destroy us.

These women who are self selecting out of the gene pool may not be a bad thing for society in the long run. In the short run...they can adopt some cats.

Think of all the babies that will be saved!! This is a WIN for our side!! Thanks Feminazi's!!!

Dave Begley म्हणाले...

Voluntary hysterectomies? Do these people realize they are mentally ill?

Dixcus म्हणाले...

I've seen a lot of them on Tik-Tok and decided to buy stock in Ozempic.

Shhhh. Don't interrupt your enemies when they are erasing their gene pool.

No doubt I am a bad person, but I can't help wondering, "How much of this is, 'You can't fire me; I quit"?

Just as all the things money can buy have make having children relatively less attractive and led to a wildly decreasing birth rate, so easily accessible porn and Netflix and video games have decreased the demand for dating and actually having anything romantically to do with a woman. Combined perhaps with a certain fear that lots of women just don't approve of men.

First, assuming most of these women do date men, dating app data shows they only want to date less that 1% of single men, those that meet their height, income, and sexual endowment standards. So the 99% aren't really going to see a change even if this takes off.

Second, the most ardent women in this movement are those who were easily manipulated into thinking Trump was lying when he said abortion should be a state issue and he would veto any national legislation. So, these women likely weren't going to have human children, opting to be a pet parent. Not to mention, they are the women who won't insist a partner use a condom or are able to track their one week of the month when they should avoid sperm in their vaginas.

They threaten only to have sex with men who they see as viable fathers and partners. Moving the clock back from hook up culture to the early 1970s, premarital sex, if not to waiting till marriage

Dixcus म्हणाले...

We turned to those things BECAUSE other things made dating/marriage a horrible cost-to-benefit. There is TREMENDOUS financial risk for men when contemplating marriage. You can legally end up someone's endentured servant. Women don't understand that they've overpriced themselves out of the market for men's time.

My video game isn't going to take half my stuff, my children and my income for the next 22 years.

Feminists on Venus, masculinists on Mars, and social progressives from Uranus invade Earth. It's evolution with a dysfunctional fitness function.

I have been openly critical of the political stance of many Victoria Secret models. For that reason I have refused to have sex with them. My position on this is non-negotiable. I can only hope that my principled stance will help bring them to their senses.

Great! Self-selected for Darwin Awards. This is overdue. Let the cultists die as martyrs. Indeed, they demand it.

A man's greatest challenge in finding a mate is distinguishing between appearance and character. There are female gold diggers, LOTS of non-violent crazy women, and plenty of spiteful, shrewish, cruel women too. Men must choose carefully (or get lucky) to avoid an unpleasant and costly dead-end relationship.

These women are efficiently removing themselves from competition. Some will see the light in five years as their biological clocks tick away, and then have to settle before their sell-by date expires. Some will receive treatment for mental illness and...learn to negotiate with biology and the universe and men... Others will be cried over by other cult members.

Remember the Shakers, for they no longer exist.

Sex strike. Libtard men hardest hit.

Is it really a strike, when no man wants to have sex with you? Its like Bill Maher refusing to enter a beauty contest.

"Feminist" has to be the ultimate oxymoron (a One-Worder, at that!). "Feminists" seem to hate all things "feminine."

Milo Minderbinder म्हणाले...

Fewer liberals contributing to the gene pool? Great strategy....

Irresponsible men have been exploiting women for centuries. Roe was an understandable and necessary response to level the playing field, but, as Buttigieg recently confirmed, abortion rights didn't stop male irresponsibility and in fact enabled it. But if women really want to level the playing field, they'll organize their political power and pass legislation that makes all men legally and financially responsible for their role in conception. I'm old enough to remember when that was a cause in the sexual revolution, a cause that died with Roe. Such laws will end the hypocrisy women face when trying to explain why they believe Jean Carroll but not Tara Reade.

RCOCEAN II म्हणाले...

Historically nagging is a woman's most effective weapon. yap,yap,yap. That's how they got the vote. "Ok, i'll do it, just shut up already" is the male equivilent to "I surrender".

Was Aristophanes an old, white male?

Nothing can be learned from reading people like THAT!

RCOCEAN II म्हणाले...

All this sex strike stuff, reminds me of Jen Rubin telling everyone to quit their newspaper job rather then put up with an owner refusing a Kamala endorsement. And then keeping her job when Bezos did it.

Or Michelle Goldberg, playing the "who needs men" card, for years. And then getting married having a kid and crowing about how happy she is, you "childless losers".

Do the people pushing this "Strike" have any intention of doing it themselves? Or are they lesbians?

Personally, I wish them all the best and hope they succeed beyond their wildest dreams. My grandchildren and great-grandchildren will not have to deal with their's - they won't exist.

Will they be missed? I don’t think so. Feminists tell young women that they have value just by being women. They’re going to learn otherwise.

Are they Feminists, orTerminists?

Dr Weevil म्हणाले...

Someone on Twitter posted a parody of an ad for a dating website, something along the lines of "Dozens of unattractive women in your area are waiting to not have sex with you!"

Magson म्हणाले...

What I find funny about this is the Korea's cultural issues are such that this 4B thing couldn't gain any traction there. It was like dumping a bucket in the ocean and saying there was more water there now. Some US feminist found an old video from 2021 when it was on its last gasp as a "movement" in Korea and reposted it while commenting on it like it was something new and exciting and managed to make it go viral here, so now it's got the "foreign cachet" that makes it somehow more appealing.... despite the fact that it's not a thing in Korea at all.

EdwdLny म्हणाले...

Ha ! Your terms are acceptable. The cleansing of the gene pool alone makes this a positive. And , yes, the reduction in the numbers of slaughtered babies is a larger positive. Keep it up "ladies" , keep it up. There will also be an upswing in societal common sense.

Not sure this is the 'own' they think it is.

Lloyd W. Robertson म्हणाले...

Excellent to see references to Aristophanes Lysistrata in the comments. This is the one with the sex strike by women in Athens in order to bring an end to the long war with Sparta. This war was to a great extent the end of Athens; by the time Alexander conquered Greece, Sparta was the main obstacle. I've heard of one performance of this play in Chicago in which the whole cast took the stage at the end to chant "peace, peace, peace," as if the hippie message was the same as Aristophanes' message. Of course the war between men and women is an example of war, not an alternative to it.
The other Aristophanes play on women is Assembly of Women (Ecclesiazousae). Women get to pass laws, one of which requires attractive young men to have sex with old and ugly women. Narcissism closely linked to sociopathy, in defiance of, let's see, nature.

Based on the videos I've seen of women sitting in their cars crying and bitching about their lives, they're already learning.

The John the Baptist refers to it as winnowing in a slightly different context. "His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” Matt. 3:12. Same idea.

Jupiter म्हणाले...

"Their rage is understandable ...".
Well, not really. If they are serious, then why do they need the right to have an abortion? I would applaud their sensible approach to identifying a problem and addressing it with a simple and effective solution. Except that they keep harping on it, even though it's not a problem any more. Strange.

West TX Intermediate Crude म्हणाले...

They continue to play into the hands of right wing nut jobs/deplorables/garbage people.
No sex--> no babies born to lefty women.
Abortions -->no babies born to lefty women.
Gay kids --> no babies born to lefty women.
Trans kids --> no babies born to lefty women.

No babies born to lefty women--> Very few lefty kids, and they, being lefty, will not reproduce.
If we can get their ideology out of the educational industry, lefties will die out without any further need for intervention.
God wins. Again. Darwin gets an assist.

Sadly I think these young women who proclaim in TikTok videos that they've joined a nascent 4B movement have already discovered that the majority of eligible young men have already forsaken them. Never has the college-educated young-adult dating scene been this dormant.

Unfortunately, they won’t be able to do it quietly, following their own internal beliefs…it’s a look as me!!!! Shriek. If you shrug your shoulders and go about your business, well, they can’t have that, and will ramp it up to obnoxiousness.

No, Roe was not "an understandable and necessary response to level the playing field". You want to deal with the problem by slaughtering the one individual involved who is guaranteed to be entirely innocent? Your goa is Moloch.

And then your follow up is just as demented: Men already are legally responsible. As I opened with, I sure hope I missed the implied winky or something.

So..... if this is considered, by them, to be a 'Fair Trade', then is it safe to assume that none of these women has ever experienced an orgasm?
