Additional context because I know the radfems are going to get their hands on this and love it:

  • "Korea has the largest gender pay gap in the rich world, with women earning 31 percent less than men, and women still face widespread discrimination in the labor market, something the movement recognizes."
  • "In 2016, a young man murdered a young woman in a Seoul public bathroom, telling police after that he killed her because women had always ignored him. Despite the perpetrator’s own statement, police refused to label the murder a hate crime. Furious, women flocked to online feminist message boards, communities, and chat forums. This wave of digital feminism attracted women from all backgrounds, including working-class women like Minji and Youngmi, making it different from traditional Korean feminism, which was largely confined to universities, NGOs that often received government support, and other elite spaces.
  • In December of that year, as Korea’s fertility rate hovered at 1.2 births per woman (it has since slid to 0.78, the lowest in the world), the Korean government launched an online “National Birth Map” that showed the number of women of reproductive age in each municipality, illustrating just what it expected of its female citizens. (South Korean president Yoon Suk-yeol won the election in March 2022 with a message that blamed feminism for Korea’s low birth rate, and a promise to abolish the country’s Ministry of Gender Equality and Family. ) Women were outraged by the map, observing that the government appeared to consider them “livestock”; one Twitter user reportedly created a mock map illustrating the concentration of Korean men with sexual dysfunction. Several of these digital feminists responded with a boycott to the reproductive labor expected by the state and decided that the surest way to avoid pregnancy was to avoid men altogether.
  • It was through these online communities that 4B emerged as a slogan, and ultimately a movement.

It's not just about hating men.

It's a political statement and protest for equality that specifically seeks to eliminate the way the way Korean women are used, abused, discarded within the patriarchy by their own refusal to participate in any of it or associate with anyone who benefits from it.

It's very specifically about Demanding equality from men in power by refusing to take part in the patriarchy and challenging the way it perceives women.

It's becoming a topic in the west now and so I wanted to add all this context with the addendum that this is NOT an inherently transphobic movement. It's also completely autonomous meaning there is no "leader" of it.

Each person will have their own reasons and method of participating in this movement. Anyone can join or be part of it. Yes this includes radfems and TERFs so when they eventually try to co-opt this movement as their own let's remember that they don't speak for all feminists and theyre definitely NOT the voice of oppressed Korean women who started this, and as such have No reason to put themselves in the spotlight of this movement. And we have no reason to let them.

i will never not be in absolute agony thinking about how jc sees wwx's actions as trying to be the hero, but wwx literally cannot see injustice and NOT try and do something about it, it would destroy him from the inside out to just ignore it. wwx wants to save EVERYONE, but jc can't afford that, not when he has an entire sect to rebuild and everyone is looking at them like carrion scavengers just waiting for the first sign of weakness, jc just wants shixiong to stop looking at everything except him, doesn't wwx see that he is the one who needs help right now? why does wwx have to go and help the wens when jc also needs help? why does wwx have to be the hero for everyone else, except for jiang cheng?

You finally weave your way through the showroom only to confront The Beast That Guards the Ikea Cafe in the center of the maze. How will you ever get to the tasty meatballs inside? Will you expire here or will your body litter the Marketplace floor like those that came before you? Whether by exhaustion or evisceration, ye shall never make it out alive.

Everyone talks about the Wano zolu reunion, which is awesome, but why doesn't anyone ever talk about the sheer flirtiness of this scene?!

Luffy only grabbed the damn sword in the first place because it was cool and I'm certain he knew Zoro would be impressed by it. Then, when Zoro reacts to the sword (exactly as he knew he would), Luffy decides to be a little shit and keep it away just because he can. Luffy is FLIRTING with Zoro!
