The 4B movement, which originated in South Korea, is described as a feminist movement against the patriarchy and has been gaining steam on social media in the U
A “women are property” sign showed up in Texas, complete with a reference to old Jewish law via Romans.
In Sunday school I learned that when Jesus arrived it was now his way not the Old Testament way. And yet. Lewis Black has a whole stand up bit regarding his utter confusion at Christians wanting to tap into his god, who he describes as “a real son of a bitch”.
In the context of what is about to happen in America, it makes complete sense. It’s a cherry picked excuse to treat us as prized livestock.
Legacy is a commodity. I would argue it’s the ultimate commodity. And men don’t have choice there unless it’s given to them by a women. Or an abortion ban, wherein rapists now get to choose. Put the pieces together and legacy, in conjunction with traditional male roles attached to that will be sitting in the center.
I don’t think that’s what GP is doing. They’re saying that misogynists are going to double-down. Hell, Vance has already said it should be a crime for women to not have children; all they’ll do is codify it into law. Don’t make a kid by 25, and it’s jail time, or you become unemployable, or something. They’ll find a way.
Everyone should have complete choice over their bodies: women, trans women, trans men, men, ungendered whomever. The fact is that, come January and very possibly essentially forever thereafter, whatever protest actions women take will be countered by conservatives by legislature that makes things worse for women, until we arrive at The Handmaid’s Tale. Case in point: after Texas voted to remove a woman’s choice and women started traveling to other states for abortions, what did Texas conservatives do? Sit back and let it happen?
By all means, protest, and support the protesters, but we need to start planning for the reaction, because it will come. I think legalizing rape, or maybe only allowing men to press charges in case some other man uses their property, is the least we can expect.
We know what they want already though because it’s in project 2025. They want a woman to not be able to work, they want to limit divorce and birth control and abortion. They probably want to legaloze rape and protect child marriage too sure. But that’s not because of 4B or women. That was already in Project 2025. They were always going to abuse women whether we were docile or not.
Which will work until Project 2025 recodifies rape as a property crime against a woman’s male guardian.

They would have done it anyway. Stop justifying male abuse by blaming women.
