Korea's 4b 'anti-men' movement comes to America

Podcast cover

The Story

This podcast delves into the emergence of the "4B" movement—No Boyfriend, No Dating, No Sex, No Marriage—sparked by rising misogyny, especially following the 2024 US Presidential election. Originating in South Korea after several shocking acts of violence against women, this movement serves as a protest against societal inequalities and the growing concerns about women's safety. As it gains momentum online in the US, the podcast examines the movement's potential as a form of protest, alongside the practical and inclusive challenges it faces. It also addresses broader societal issues, such as declining birth rates and the complex emotions men experience amid shifting gender dynamics.
