• Transphobia

The 4B movement is a transphobic online movement originating around 2017 on Twitter, and from the South Korean website WOMAD.

Women outside South Korea on social media sites are taking an interest in its tenants following Trump's 2024 election victory, hopefully due to a lack of awareness of the less trans-friendly aspects of the original. Hopefully.

Tenants

Their belief system follows 4 basic tenets, each one starting with bi (Korean: 비, English: no), hence 4 bis Bs,:

• No dating men (Korean: 비연애; biyeonae)
• No marrying men (Korean: 비혼; bihon)
• No hanky-panky with men (Korean: 비섹스; bisekseu)
• No giving birth (Korean: 비출산; bichulsan)

They exclude trans women from their movement, but not married women (who have broken at least one tenant, and possibly all of them), which just goes to show you that transphobia makes perfect sense.
