The 4B movement or often just 4B is a radical feminist movement in South Korea that started in 2019. The name comes from a Korean term meaning four nos. Proponents allegedly maintain four rules:
- No dating
- No heterosexual sexual relationships
- No heterosexual marriage
- No childbirth
While one-night stands are apparently prohibited it is unclear to the extant that proponents adhere to this.
Proponents of the 4B movement claim that South Korea is oppressive to women, but not so oppressive that they can't make these choices.
The Korean 4B movement inspired a similar movement in the US after the election of Donald Trump in 2024. This movement was briefly called 4N until American feminists settled on calling it 4B like it's Korean counterpart.[1]
Buzz ran an article in December 2024 about men's reaction to 4B.[2][3]
As of January 2025 media interest in 4B in the United States has waned significantly.
