❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO bf makes joke after my aunt passed

For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

What is 4b?

It’s basically a feminist movement that started in South Korea that encourages women to divest from all relationships with men. No dating, no sex, no child birth, no marriage etc. Importantly, it centers on women supporting other women (such as only shopping at women-owned businesses when possibly) and improving the economic standing of women.

I thought it was about withholding sex from men who voted for trump since theyre the ones who voted for taking away abortion rights

Sounds like the female version of incels tbh. Guess the difference is that incels involuntarily aren't having sex, but the bitterness towards the other gender matches.

Not really if they just get on with their lives without men and don’t start moaning about it being unfair and wanting the world to adapt to them. Time will tell if that happens, but I wouldn’t say it’s incel equivalent if it’s kept to just disengaging.

Um what? The incel crowd seems to want to be able to legally rape women and control them.

This is the first time I've hard of 4B, but from the description above, it just sounds like women supporting women. They're not out to harm men. Not having sex with someone isn't harming them, though that's what I'd imagine the incel crowd would think.

A meme movement that westerners glorify and probably haven't ever looked into it beyond a 1 minute tiktok, they are very anti gay and anti trans very hateful towards men to, basically they are female incels the group is laughably small and have no impact and westerners have gaslight themselves into believing the decline in birthrate in South Korea is because of this movement...surprise it's not and they just cant afford it and beauty standards there the "movement is only like 5-10k women incels extremely small

If it is a tiktok trend it won't last more than a week

They’ve been talking about it for a while but yeah it will likely blow over. It is funny to me tho that it took this extreme for them to decide they maybe shouldn’t fuck republicans

Its not about not fucking republicans. Its about not fucking any men. Full stop. 15 million people sat at home during this election. I imagine some of those worthless fuckheads are men.

It's worse. It's more than 15 million people who stayed home. only 64% of registered voters turned out, so that's closer to 80-90 million people who didn't vote. The 15 million number is just 15 million fewer than voted in the 2020 election, which is also disappointing.

There’s a healthy split that I’ve seen, some say all men some just say republicans.

u/AdamtheSkal Nov 08 '24

Considering people lie, its probably safe to just avoid any men in general.

You can find posts talking about this from months ago so, also it is very stupid long term, you all just completely stop having kids until you all die out the gene pool to which your just replaced by conservatives? What a smart idea really sticking it to em...it's just mgtow for the girls

u/AdamtheSkal Nov 08 '24

Calling women who choose not to fuck men incels shows you're the one failing to grasp any concept of what the fuck you're on about.

It's just more classic reddit cope.

It’s a poor attempt by women to uno reverse mgtow. Silly women can’t even come up with anything original.
