This reminds me of Lysistrata, the ancient Greek play where the women boycotted their husbands in order to end the Peloponnesian war.<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysistrata" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysistrata</a><p>The misogynistic posts referenced in the NPR article are so sad. What have we become?
The 4B people don't seem to know about the Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW) people.<p>Many single men have given up on the whole dating scene.
WGTOW's see 4B's as win for them.
> Following President-elect Trump’s victory — which was fueled by male voters<p>Not sure if I buy the "gender war" framing of the national election. According to the stats in the linked article, there was a modest but not crazy 6% differential in between genders this election cycle, which is closer than it was last election (14%)!
Good. Fight for your right. I’m pissed at Florida for not passing abortion with 58% vote. That’s the majority that got ignored. Passed in 5 other states.
Fuck I hope not. South Korea is precisely what <i>not</i> to learn from if you don't want a whole generation of young people thriving on hating opposite sexes.<p>See the brutal graph shown in this article:<p><a href="https://www.ft.com/content/29fd9b5c-2f35-41bf-9d4c-994db4e12998" rel="nofollow">https://www.ft.com/content/29fd9b5c-2f35-41bf-9d4c-994db4e12...</a>
This will be an absolute nothing, like moving to Canada. Lots of Americans said they'd do it in 2016, how many did? Probably less than 1% of those who said they would. It's a good, sensational story for the media - sex sells - but of the women who aren't already celibate I doubt more than 1% will stick to it after a month or two.<p>Not to mention, there's not actually that much of a difference between men and women in terms of Trump support or abortion - 45% of Trump votes were women and according to Gallup <i>more</i> women think abortion should always be illegal and 49% described themselves as pro-life.
