A feminist movement sweeping South Korea, in which women are saying “No” to any form of intimate relationships with men, is taking hold in the United States following former President Donald Trump’s resounding victory in the presidential election.

The 4B movement originally emerged from the fringes of the South Korean feminist movement.
