Here is part of the thread
I am Korea Feminist. Please Don't ask Korean men about feminism. In South Korea, women who support feminism are targets of cyberbullying. We face daily layoffs and digital sexual assault. In severe cases, assault or even murder. So South Korean women hide their beliefs to survive
This is why men and pickme girls say there are fewer 4Bs in Korea. Many women who practice 4B have to hide their beliefs from anti-feminist in order to avoid being killed. In Korea, it is impossible to have positive conversations about feminism offline.
Please don't ask Korean men about Korean feminism. All Korean men are extremely anti-feminist. Korea is a femicide country. In Korea, if a woman has short hair, she may be assaulted and not hired. If you're curious about Korean feminism, Ask a Korean woman a question on Twitter.
This is evidence to prove my words. The man assaulted her because he thought she was a feminist because she had short hair. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-67330628
4b is radical feminism and based on bioessentialism. The movement is explicitly trans-exclusionary and transmisogynistic. The Cut article literally says as such.
what? this is the first time i'm hearing of it, do u know any movements that are trans-inclusive in SK?
I don't have much knowledge of trans-inclusive feminist movements in Korea, unfortunately (and I can't read Korean where most of this discussion happens). I read a post from a Korean transfeminist responding to the 4b movement who basically said that she and other trans women in SK have dealt with violent transmisogyny in women's liberation spaces. Of course there are transfeminists and queer organizations in SK, but this is the extent of what I know.
Yeah I always got the feeling that this movement was reactionary considering the driving force was "just say no (bi)"
A movement without intersectionalism and class analysis is just fodder for western new sites to make orientalist headlines about asian baby crisis for the 100th time while neoliberalism cripples the country further while alt right groups grow.
No wonder Kim Jong Un abandoned this country.
