Episode 14: The 4B Movement - Feminism’s Radical Shift? From South Korea to the USA

from The Miss Information Podcast · host The Reluctant Accountant

In this week’s episode of The Miss Information Podcast, Zee explores the 4B movement, a South Korean feminist movement gaining traction in the United States following Donald Trump’s re-election. With growing fears around women’s healthcare, reproductive rights, and gender equality, the 4B movement’s message of rejecting traditional gender roles is resonating across the globe.Zee explains how the 4B movement emerged in South Korea as a response to systemic gender inequality, societal pressures, and escalating violence against women. The movement’s pillars—no marriage, no childbirth, no dating, and no heterosexual sex—challenge traditional expectations, empowering women to reclaim their independence in a patriarchal world.She also reflects on other landmark women’s movements in history, including the 1975 Icelandic Women’s Strike, where women united to demand equality, showcasing the power of collective action to disrupt the status quo.Join Zee as she connects the dots between global feminist movements and the fight for autonomy and justice in a rapidly changing world.
