According to Wikipedia “4B (or “Four Nos”) is a radical feminist movement which is purported to have originated in South Korea in 2019. Its proponents refuse to date men, get married, have sex with men, or have children.” During my recent over-indulgence in videos of despairing Kamala Harris voters I noticed that a number of the angriest screamers were women who kept shouting, “4B! 4B! 4B!”
I found this interesting. Now even though most of these women were, to say the least unattractive, even the few who were somewhat telegenic were so obviously unhinged that I couldn’t imagine that a sane man would want to date them. And as for marrying or having a family with them, that would be inconceivable to any but the most delusional.
Now, I’ve been out of the dating scene for nearly fifty years. So, I’m far from an expert on the current state of male/female relations. But is it possible that most young women are represented by the kind of unbalanced harpies seen in these videos? If that were the case, I’d have to say our civilization is doomed. The level of dysfunction on display rules out the possibility that any of these women could participate in a normal marriage. And under no circumstance should any of them be trusted to raise children.
But regardless if these women only represent 10% or even 5% of women, there is something terribly wrong with our society. Even if only 1% of women believe these things we are in very serious trouble. It means there is a force loose in our world that is teaching girls and young women that having children is a plot being foisted on them by an evil patriarchal conspiracy. This way of looking at life is so twisted and nihilistic that anyone who espouses these beliefs should be kept as far as possible from young people as the law will allow.
As I hinted at near the beginning of this post most of the women who were screeching “4B” weren’t really in danger of attracting male suitors. So 4B may be a sort of self-delusion to explain why they live alone with their cats. But for the sake of the easily influenced it would make sense to have a public service program to warn young women what will happen if they head down the 4B road.
Of course, in the long run this is a self-correcting problem. Women with this mindset will cancel themselves out of the gene pool and so reinforce the selection of normal maternal women as wives and mothers. But it seems that society of late has encouraged feminist philosophies to spread unchecked in colleges and corporations. And the espousing of things like 4B is the end result.
Some countries like south Korea and Hungary have begun to legislate incentives to couples to get married and have children. And I think that is a very good stop-gap to prevent financial hardship from being the cause of a birth-rate crash. But this is just a band-aid. If people no longer have an instinct to marry and have children we have reached the end stage of societal collapse.
What makes sense to me is for those who want to avoid this extinction stage must separate from the mechanisms that indoctrinate the young with this mindset. And the public schools and the colleges seem to be those mechanisms. In addition, social mechanisms will need to be put in place to help young people to find marriage partners.
All of this seems absurd. After all, it used to seem that nature had made getting young men and women together the easiest thing in the world. But apparently our society has managed to screw that up royally. And what this has to do with Donald Trump beating Kamala Harris in the 2024 election is more than any normal person can figure. But it’s just one more symptom of how the Left has made normal life almost impossible.
So once again the important take away is protect your children from mentally ill people preaching dysfunction and nihilism. Be aware of what passes for public education in your town.
Strangely, when an internet journalist went to South Korea and asked women on the street, none of them knew what 4B was about. Like most things on the internet it is blown way out of proportion. The true number of actual homosexuals is closer to 2% than 10%. Most of the pronoun idiots are wannabes.
War Pig, that is a very good point. But I also have met people, even married men who say they refuse to have children because it’s unjust to bring more people onto this planet. The educational establishment in this country is a cancer that needs to be excised.
Oh, absolutely. The only way to survive is to breed better people. The child they refuse to birth may, Indeed, turn out to be a tyrant or a murderer. But then, it could also turn out to be the next Edison or Carver or Turing or Salk or Florence Nightingale. Odds are better they will grow up to be average people and live a good life with children of their own. People went on having children during WWII when things were one hell of a lot worse than they are now. They even had children during the Great Depression. You… Read more »
I give them 3 weeks of having to buy their own drinks before they crumble.
Here’s to all of the blued-haired nose-ringed obese cat ladies who’ve joined 4B. Long may they withhold sex from all men.
