The 4B movement is a movement in South Korea right now where the misogyny and sexism is so bad that South Korean women have decided to opt out of men entirely.
Some women proudly shaved their heads on camera in an effort to become less attractive to the male gaze, as though being bald might protect us from violence and subjugation.
Legitimate post-election fears about body autonomy and women's safety have translated into galvanizing around a movement that is highly specific to South Korea, divorcing it from its original context.
This whitewashed version of 4B, which has a history of anti-trans actions, is not the winning strategy to resist and undermine the patriarchy people think it is.
