‘Time to boycott all men’: The 4B movement going viral after Trump's victory

Donald Trump’s divisive win in the US presidential elections this week has left many American women fearful for their future. The Republican victory took place amid an unparalleled conservative rollback against women’s rights, leaving many anxious about their already vulnerable personal autonomy and freedoms.

In response, many women have rallied behind the 4B movement – a radical feminist initiative that rejects marriage, dating, childbirth and having sex with men. This movement, inspired by a similar push in South Korea, has gained momentum on social media as an assertion of resistance.

A viral post on X (formerly known as Twitter) proclaimed, "Ladies, we need to start considering the 4B movement like the women in South Korea and give America a severely sharp birth rate decline: no marriage, no childbirth, no dating men, no sex with men. We can’t let these men have the last laugh … we need to bite back," garnering 20 million views and nearly 500,000 likes in 48 hours.
