Great topic and covered very well by the different interviewees. Anna was very professional and well thought as always. its interesting that 4b keeps coming up and I now hear it being brought up an awful lot in the U.S.. in conjunction with our rapidly declining birthrates. The truth is, this is something that media and government seem to be bringing to the forefront in order to point misplaced blame. The truth about our declining birthrates is very much as Anna clearly stated: it is an economic issue, it is an issue of policy failure. People can barely afford to take care of themselves anymore. The average cost of a home, where I live is over a million dollars and the price keeps rising despite the fact that so many of them sit empty, and the average employee salary is barely enough to cover rent. Rising inflation related to food is completely out of control. People are just acknowledging a growing problem with no end in site and are doing the responsible thing by not creating families. Also (and I admit I learned a lot about this from Park JImin (no joke) ) feminism, even radical feminism, is about true equality...full stop. There needs to be more differentiation between the different movements, so as not to stoke hate based on misunderstandings.

The reason not to have children is a woman’s decision, sometimes supported by a feminist man. Do not underestimate the decision of women and of the men that support them. If you are pressured by a patriarchal and demanding society to compete, have money and be the best, it is not a materialistic choice. It’s a protecting one.

I think some of the comments were somewhat correct. There are economic and social reasons why couples are foregoing having children. If a single income family cannot bear the costs of having children then the wife must also have to find a job. But wives who work also bear most of the burden of housework and child care. That makes most woment hesitant to marry or have a child.

I heard about the Korean 4B movement in 2020 when it was at its peak. It was in online news because Korean men were upset about a guesture on an ad. But it really doesn’t matter if most Korean women don’t know about 4B. Or many could be practicing 4B and moving in silence. However, some Western women have decided to give it a go. Actually, there have been pockets of western women “Decentering Men” (similar to 4B) long before someone decided to name it West 4B. The one comment I don’t understand is how 4B equates to hating men. Choosing not to date, marry, procreate or have intimate relationships with a man doesn’t mean you hate men. Maybe these women simply want peaceful, stress-free lives without the headache relationships, marriage and children can bring. 🤷🏻‍♀️

i am a Korean and I am a civil servant. Most of my co-workers have two children. Many employees have three children, which is rare in Korea. Civil servants have low wages, but it is a good environment to raise children. This is not the case for ordinary private companies. The birth rate is low because Korean society is always comparable to others, and competition is fierce and material is important, and it is difficult to raise children. It is not because it is a male-dominant society. Women have a higher status than men in their families, me and the couples around them

In SK it’s so difficult for women. They are treated badly and some have lots of problems with their bosses, sexism,etc. If you are a mother it’s difficult to find a job again. That’s not an friendly environment to raise children. It’s logical that lots of them don’t want kids because of all the disadvantages they have to face then. There’s a lot going wrong that leaded to this.

Even if you are a father, it is a very difficult environment. Since the wife cannot get a job, the husband has to cover all the income while overworked, and it is also difficult to use parental leave stipulated by law at work. It is not just difficult for women, but it is a harsh workplace culture for young women and young men. Most of the people in the high-ranking positions in the workplace are in their 50s, and 60s. A hell exploiting the younger generation.

More South Korean women goes to universities than Korean men, they earn more money (given the job and jobtitle is the same), they don't have to serve in the army for 2 years (so they start their education and career earlier than men), more Korean women initiate divorce and the Korean divorce court is extremely favorable for women, you can sue any men SO EASILY in Korea even for a false accusation (and the entire law system is favorable to women) so men are afraid of doing anything with Korean women. i'm a Korean currently living in Korea, so idk what all the foreingers pretending to be "experts" of Korean society are talking about. They think South Korea is some outdated medieval style patriarchy society when it's even more radically feminized than most Western countries now. there's a huge movement among Korean men basically affirming to never touch or do anything with Korean women because it's a legitimate legal danger to them that can ruin one's life entirely.

I generally agree on your point. This world is actually male-dominated society and that domination is real, Men have certain roles : intimidating and protecting, and both roles have been needed in so-called patriachical society. And also their hormones drives them into doing all sorts of crazy things when they reach their puberty. after the Korean war, third or fourth generation of parents' indoctrinating and delusive schooling effort made their children vulnerable in every side except making a good grade in school. Their growth went perfectly with online revolution. and All kind of distorted malicious male culture successfully settled on online. this polluted online trend meets the other side of extremity. There are same breeds on the extremity of male and female side, I think. They are handful of extreme haters and internet amplifies their voice. 4B or whatever is kind of, economical or existential decision in my opinion.

As a Korean, let me explain the current situation in Korea. Currently, the country is at the height of gender conflict, and they are quiet offline but only speak ill of each other online. This situation was not just created recently, but a topic that began to burn up a little over a decade or two ago. There is also something foreigners should not misunderstand, and Korean feminism is never intended to eliminate "sex discrimination." They are 99 percent radical feminists and speak out only for the benefit of "biological women." We call them "buffet feminism." They avoid responsibility and cherry-pick only their own interests. One of the reasons gender conflict is getting serious now that, beyond the rise of women's human rights, reverse discrimination among young men is currently emerging. Of course, from the 1950s to the 1980s to the 1990s, Korea was in a patriarchal atmosphere, but the problem is that women in their teens and 30s who are not discriminated against women force their sacrifice on men in their teens and 30s who have never discriminated against women in modern society. And what's even funnier is that the people at the forefront of this movement are really men in their 50s and 60s who really smashed women's rights, and that's not all. South Korea is currently at a truce with North Korea, and men with good physical health through conscription have almost two years of national defense. Now, the military has been overhauled a lot, but only 10 years ago, they were paid about $70 a month. It gets less and less as we go back in time. We risk not being able to go home for two years in our feisty twenties and dying in training. Just a few days ago, two trainees died. But up until this point, the men didn't care about women not going to the military. Rather, the idea was that I would sacrifice myself because I couldn't put my mother, girlfriend, sister, and sister in danger. But as time went on, women started to take it for granted. They joke that men grow up to go to the military without even going to the military. Would you believe some women mocking soldiers who died in small battles with North Korea or died in training? And all they're saying is, have we sent our troops back? You know what these feminists said, even though they were giving small marks to men who had done their military duty as compensation for applying for civil service? This led to the disappearance of the score - women can't even go to the military, but only men can score points. (Women can actually join the military as cadres, not regular soldiers). Since then, there have been occasions such as scuttling soldiers to a free coffee event at a Starbucks, and disparaging men under 180 cm as losers. There will be numerous instances, if you look them up. But the truth is, this is not the end. Politicians are also responsible for igniting gender conflict. They provide about $4,400 for women's apartments, women's parking lots, prostitution subsidies (which is illegal in Korea), and Koreans' men of national merit receive about $146 a month. South Korea has a very high poverty rate and suicide rate among the elderly. Well, the gender conflict in Korea means that many complex elements are intertwined. And this gender conflict naturally affects the fertility rate, but in fact, Korea's current national pension and real estate problems are quite big. Because people in their 40s and 60s who lived in the patriarchal era are sucking the blood of young people, the fertility rate in Korea will never rise. Because Korean politicians are only trying to get votes, so they only put out policies for baby boomers, 40s and 60s, and the fact that real estate prices don't go down. One more thing: There is currently a female conscription service as a hot potato. Because the number of soldiers being recruited at a time when the birth rate is decreasing, and this is directly related to security. But politicians will "never" try to implement a female conscription service. Why? They don't want to lose women's votes. As an alternative, they are lowering the bar for conscription, thereby taking in more men who are mentally challenged or unwell. Who knows? Maybe they are trying to extend their military service. The last thing I want to say is that there is a growing number of pessimists in Korea. In a few decades, Korea will become a naturally extinct country haha.🤣

I applaud the last woman in the video. It is most definitely important to find out how, you as a couple, can resolve disagreement. Married 30 years, I think it is my responsibility to lead my family. But lead where? Ultimately I want to lead them to a happy and satisfied place. It is important to intimately know how those you are leading are feeling and what their needs are. It is crucial that those feelings and needs be shared. No one can hit a target when they don’t know what they are aiming for. One of the most self destructive habits of many some is to just assume that men should know how they feel or what they want.

As a man, I've always been a feminist ever since I was a kid, I often questioned the shit that women go through. The belief that "it's a man's world" never made sense to me so I didn't accept it. Imagine your daughter, mother, Aunty, sister, girlfriend/wife, friend or just any woman in general being unfairly treated, abused etc, I would fight anyone to protect my loved ones and women's rights, Infact everyone's rights. People who lack empathy are narcissists and they are ruining the world. Empathy is one of the most important traits because it gives us the ability to view things from different perspectives, to mirror someone's life and understand what they're going through. Empathy connects us, keeps us balanced and caring for each other. If we didn't have it, peace and love as you know it wouldn't exist. We had to pass through the legs of / through a woman to be here, we need women so treat them with love and treat them as equals. Feminism isn't just the works of human's awareness and desire for change, it's the doing of evolution. With every action, there's a reaction, that's a scientific fact. So it's no surprise that the world is becoming more aware and fighting for equality and positive changes. As someone who loves science and philosophy - my philosophical view of the universe is that "we are the universe experiencing and understanding itself and finding purpose." One of the obvious purposes in life is to survive. So women all over the world, go live your life, survive and do what makes you happy, ignore the brainless haters. You are the universe (scientific fact) so start living like it. Love you South Korea 🇰🇷 and all women around the world ❤️

Most of that is self-inflicted. Typical Korean family spend all their income on private tutoring classes to pass the entrance exams, expensive baby clothes/accessories, and other needless status symbols that does nothing to raise children properly, but only harms them. Cut out all that needless costs, and SKorea is one of the most affordable places to raise children, due to all the free subsidized government support, including free lunches in schools, free daycare, generous monthly baby cash bonuses, and first choice for government subsidized cheaper housing. The Korean competitive environment will soon disappear also, as there are less and less younger people and more and more jobs will have no people. Millions of older baby boomer Koreans are going to be retiring in the next 5 years, and there's not enough young folks to fill those jobs.

Korean women in their 20s and 30s were the most materialistic, had the lowest gratitude index (the degree to which they felt gratitude), and had the highest level of neuroticism (emotional anxiety). They also had a high tendency to compare themselves to others.

@@ahzigos 2) How is this relevant or a sign of transversal subordination based on gender? I’ve heard about horror stories about bosses in koran companies. I bet ment must perform other extra tasks and I bet way more hard than washing some dishes. Is like Japan you must do extra bs for your bosses just because they are above you. Is a very stupid example to brought up. It just shows how korean companies see their employers as a whole: utilities. 3) I’ve watched many videos about korean families and daily vlogs from Korea and all the men were involved in daily chores. And probably must of the fixings and reparations are done by men anyway so it seems to be 50/50. But still this is such a non issue IMO, who care who is washing what in X house? Since when feminism is fighting about who takes out the trash? Is none of your business, each family organize themselves as they see fit. Maybes women have more free time or men care less about this things. 4) Most of the pressure I see online about female bodies is from other women. Korean society is extremely competitive and superficial, is not a feminist problem is a societal problem. And women in 2024 are way more fixated with how they look than women in 1924 so is not like feminism is doing nothing to change that. Makeup, fashion, surgeries, fitness, purses, shoes…in 2024 are billion dollar industries. Maybe women just like to feel pretty. But I agree it can be too much specially for young women. The solution? That solution is anti feminist: going back in time. Like things were before and female beauty not related to big boobs or big butt or big lips but other qualities.

The vibe I get is feminism used to be fashionable but it is not anymore. The real issue is super competitive society and super charged hypergamy. By the time men and women think they are successful enough to marry (especially given high housing cost, etc.), they are well into 30''s and are very picky. Recently men have been pushing back partially in reaction to militant feminism and golddiggers - they don't want to marry old women. Things will continue to get worse before getting better, and there will be a lost generation - refer to "makeinu" in Japan which had similar social problems in the past.

Women are valuaing their careers more now than before 3. Household chores and expectations weight on women 4. Unrealistic social pressure and expectations The 4B movement is a radical very niche group in Korea which explains why many Koreans havent heard of it. I love the girl "society is already f* up", queen spoke true 🤣 SK issue with birth rate is happening everywhere and there is no turn back to it.

What does being an extreme feminist have to do with getting married and having a baby? You think that her being a feminist was just a claim because she got married and had a child? This reminds me if people who say feminism is bad by using women who never said they were feminist but they claim that these women are

The topic of 4B to Korean women should be reassessed by a coalition of intellectual Korean women consisting of professional women that for and against the concept. It seems that Korean society and the role of women currently has some areas that need improvement but change without considering impact should be assessed. If marriage, children, relationships are boycotted by women, the question might be 'which' women? Elderly women, Uneducated women, Handicapped women? As we age, everyone starts losing abilities, which without support groups, those unable to work, move, talk, hear, see makes us vulnerable in survival. Who provides the bulk of income currently? Who provides the bulk of home care? In China, scores of women are selective about deciding on marriage or who they marriage, there are scores of unmarried men and women, which the population is getting smaller. This is a social-economic-political issue that will have impact on South Korean population. What happens if Korean men seek spouses from the Phillipines, Thailand, Indonesia? How will that impact Korean society? The movement might have some issues to support, but the consequences might have implications that aren't positive for either men, women or the next generation.

Korean men also want to reject the ^current patiarchy^ and find alternatives like a feminist, but they do not have a choice. whether they want it or not, all Korean men perform two years of mandatory military service. feminist has a choice not to forced to service, but they always claim they living in a 'unfair' society. i never seen a 'feminist' who wants to share Korean men's military service burden. that's a hilarious point

The biggest misconception in the current and historical system is that all men win and no woman wins. But that's not accurate at all, the vast majority of men are just peasants, and women who the men in power like, are given a free ride to success.

It is possible for more than one thing to be unfair at the same time. Women are joining feminist groups to fight for fairness. So the males could also form a group to fight against the unfair compulsory service.

In countries where many women have post secondary education, the birth rate goes down dramatically, and regardless of the label put on them, they are much more "feminist" in their outlook than countries wherein women have low education. By feminist I mean women EXPECT to have equal rights as men, equal chance for jobs, value career over having children, and so on. I hope we get to the point where these traits are not under the term "feminism" but rather things that both women and men accept as the norm. Seeing as human resources is one of the most important resources we have, we have wasted 50% of that for millennia. We gotta do better.

That's a very subjective view to say they are being wasted in terms of dollars and cents. A lot of them would prefer raising a family and have somebody else earn money, cuz even in the most "equal" societies, most women do relatively low-pay unskilled jobs that they wish they could escape, cashiers, waitresses, supermarkets are the realistic jobs most of them will be in. if you think the alternative to the traditional role is most of them becoming engineers, doctors, corporate superstars, that's just unrealistic.

Other factors affect this obviously, but basically as two household income became the median, two household income has now become the minimum to stay in the median. We have lost the narrative of equal rights for women who "choose" to go in the workplace. They gotta work. It hadn't been a waste of human resources. They've just be reallocated to different and new production lines of society.

@@kumbawolf I should clarify what I mean by "wasted" for I agree with much of what you posted. I mean to say that the potential for women IF THEY CHOOSE to do other things than stay at home raising children was systemically barred for millennia. That they contributed to social well being is without question. But it is a fact that they were considered chattel for thousands of years, barred from attaining high education, from having jobs that were traditionally for men only, etc. Men were expected to be the breadwinner, and society looked down upon them if they shirked this responsibility. However, they were not legally barred from staying at home or have no job or do what was normally expected of for women. In short, the waste I'm talking about is the potential for women to contribute in ways other than through traditional means. That potential was always granted to men but not women.

@@chriIIe I didn't imply that they all choose white collar jobs with high pay and high social status. What I mean is that they were legally barred from doing anything other than staying at home raising the family Were men legally barred from staying at home instead of working? They would have been denigrated, sure, but there was no law to prevent them from staying at home and doing housework and raising kids if they so chose. If they chose to attain higher education, there were legally allowed as opposed to women.

@@9y2bgy The vast majority of men at that time were peasants who did crap work and got paid barely enough to survive. The idea that most of the jobs at that time is a privilige that woman would want, I mean even till today most women avoid those kinds of jobs. The problem is when you think of women not being allowed to work, you think of women not being allowed to be doctors , lawyers, engineers, when realistically iif they had the "privilige" of being able to work, they could've only been janitors, garbageman, construction workers, unless they are born into a noble family, which obviously is a small minority.

A lot of these movements start around people wanting to make money off of other people's anger and despair. Case in point, the founder preaching one thing, then getting married herself. The biggest problem in Korea currently is that the majority of the economy is centred in Seoul, and that city is too expensive to live in comfortably for the majority of Koreans...yet they need to work there to maximize their professional opportunities. Korea would do well to try to invest in economic zones in other parts of the country to spread out the opportunities and population density.
