Women in the U.S. are shaving their heads and swearing off sex with their partners in protest at Donald Trump’s re-election.
They say their inspiration is from the 4B movement, which originated in South Korea.
Those subscribing to the idea are urging other women to adopt the principles of no dating, no intercourse, no marriage and no children to ‘punish’ the men in their lives for the election of Trump over Kamala Harris.
‘I have many thoughts right now, but what I’m going to say right now is women you need to stop putting out for men,’ wrote one account on TikTok.
‘Like I’m not even kidding. You need to stop f****** these men they don’t give a f*** about you. Stop dating stop f****** these men. You don’t need them, go buy a f****** Rose Toy. Stop f****** man. Stop! They don’t care about you b****. Like enough.’

One woman ordered others women to stock up on sex toys for their ‘moments of weakness’
‘Ladies, I’m not saying this to be facetious. I don’t care if you’re a Rose girl, a wand girl or a monster alien tentacle girl, stock up now for your moments of weakness,’ another woman urged, suggesting they buy sex toys to cope.
‘Because ain’t nothing worse being alive than being stuck with a man. None! We are taking coochie off the table indefinitely,’ said rocky__horror to her 23,000 followers.
‘As a woman, my bodily autonomy matters, and this is my way to exercise sovereignty over that,’ said one TikToker, encouraging other women to ‘delete their dating apps’ in solidarity.
‘If you need someone to cuddle or give you a kiss, I bet you one of your girlfriends would do it, and you don’t even need to be gay. It’s OK to have a lot of platonic love for the next four years,’ she said.
The 4B Movement began after a woman was murdered when she rejected a man’s advances. Despite confessing to killing her because he was ignored, local police refused to brand it a hate crime.
Frustrations soared when the country launched a National Birth Map, which outlined what it expected from its female citizens, prompting women to become outraged as they claimed officials viewed them as ‘livestock.’
Women ultimately banded together and decided the surest way to avoid pregnancy was to avoid men.
It now appears American women are following the same ideology in an attempt to exact revenge on men who voted Trump back into the White House.
‘I know that women are conditioned to feel sadness over anger and so when we’re angry we cry, I do the same thing, but you need to be angry now. It’s time to start acting that way. If you’re being loud be louder. They already hate you,’ she said
Another woman urged fellow women to behave how they wanted to and lose any inhibitions they might have because ‘men hate’ them
‘Be angry. No one gives a s*** about your tears. Be angry. Hold people accountable. If you’re able to leave your piece of s*** partner – do that. Do you want to get a divorce? Do it today. Be angry,’ urged. Haiikitto, who has 52,000 followers on TikTok.

‘The good news is that men hate us so there’s no point in catering to them. They’re gonna hate us anyway. Do you know what I mean?’, asked Hope Cavendish to her 31,000 followers.
‘There’s no point in wondering, “Does he think I’m rude? Does this guy think I’m rude?” He already hates you. Who cares! Who cares if you think I’m rude. “Am I being loud?” They already hate you. Be loud. Are they going to hit you more? They already hate you!’ she added.
According to Associated Press, 53 percent of white women supported Trump while Kamala garnered 46 percent of votes from white women.
Trump’s win has left many women across the country in fear of what’s to come as they have been taking to social media to express their concerns about the state of their reproductive rights.
The movement has grown into an online community where thousands of women engage anonymously in discussions about life without men, offering an opportunity to vent frustrations about living in a conservative and patriarchal society.

‘F*** being skinny, f*** being hot, f*** being all the things that the patriarchy wants us to be, ’cause clearly they don’t give a s*** about us,’ said one TikToker while shaving her head.
‘Stop dating men, stop having sex with men, stop talking to men, divorce your husbands, leave your f***ing boyfriends, leave them,’ she added.
Some social media users have expressed their concerns that support for the movement in the US could result in a rapid decline in birth rates, reports Elle magazine.
South Korea has the lowest birth rate in the world, which continues to fall, with many attribute this to the radical 4B movement.
