The US presidential election results of 11/06/2024 have been detrimental for women all across the nation. We have fought a grueling battle in which our hardest efforts were sustained until they couldn't be.

But, American women, we can not go into mourning yet. We must make hasty movements using what we have at our disposal. We have to gain the independence that is owed to us. It is crucial we hold these individuals who have repeatedly tried to rob us of our bodily autonomy responsible and this is how: 

The 4B movement is a 2017 South Korean radical feminist movement originating on X aimed against misogynistic men willing to commit gender-based violence. It consists of "Four Nos," which go as follows:

1. Do not have sex with men

2. Do not date men

3. Do not marry men

4. Do not have children with men

+ Do not buy pink tax items. 

Now more than ever, women need to take control and show dominance in their voice. A widespread American take on the 4B South Korean protest may be our last shot before the conservative Project 2025 plan is put into action against multiple of women's right's: https://www.project2025.org/

Many states continue to rapidly turn red for abortion on the US map: https://www.plannedparenthoodaction.org/abortion-access-tool/US

As of November 8th, 2024, 41 states have bans on abortion in effect. 

1) 14 states have banned abortion. 

2) 27 states have gestational limits. 

3) only 9 states and the District of Columbia have no ban on abortion or gestational limits. 

Studies have shown that if abortion is banned throughout the United States, the overall number of maternal morality would rise by 24%. For Black women, this number of deaths would increase by 39 percent in total: https://www.americanprogress.org/article/abortion-bans-will-result-in-more-women-dying/

The infant mortality percentage in Texas is increasing daily. Women have been bleeding out in Oklahoma and Georgia parking lots and often succumb to viral infections before the adequate medical care can be given to them: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/sep/25/abortion-bans-healthcare-maternal-mortality

Project 2025 plans to incite widespread abortion bans and pass many other detrimental laws for women on a national scale. 

But there's still a chance for a fight. We won't give up and the 4B boycott will be our best effort. We have to raise our voices in recognition of the very future of American women.

Please, spread the word anyway you can and to anyone you know that would be willing to participate in the 2024 4B movement or offer their allyship in this movement so that we may continue to fight the patriarchal oppression of the United states of America.
