Summary

Following Donald Trump’s recent election victory, Google searches for “4B,” a South Korean feminist movement advocating a “no sex, no dating, no marriage, no children” stance, surged in the U.S.

The 4B movement, popular among young women on social media, promotes individual resistance against conservative politics and the erosion of reproductive rights.

The trend reflects a broader ideological divide between young men and women in the U.S., where women under 30 are significantly more liberal than men.

    There’s nothing inherently unhealthy about being asexual.

        From a physiological standpoint? Seems virtually the same to me. The other guy said it was unhealthy. Is there anything unhealthy about abstinence?

            Yes, no one is arguing that. The context was there’s no difference physiologically speaking. That was the premise.

                I have enough respect for those people to know they are smart enough to understand the distinction.

          They’re not necessarily the same, there’s two major differences between them physiologicaly:

          1. Asexual people date others unless they are also aromantic (well aromantic people also can date but it’s less common)
          2. Some asexual people can and do have sex

          Asexuality doesn’t have the desire for sex.

          This is abstinence for those that would like to have sex but don’t feel safe.

        It’s called celibacy, and it’s voluntary in this context.

        Incel = involuntary celibacy

        These women are volunteering to be celibate.
