We made a huge mistake by introducing 4b movement to these moronic American liberal feminists. I think just encouraging them to separate themselves from the males would have been enough. And gradually we could have introduce them to each aspect of the 6b4t. Now look at them ruining the hard work and sacrifices of South Korean women. I am certain there will come a time when american liberals will take the entire credit for the 4b movement shoving SK women aside just like they did with feminism. We shouldn’t let them do this! We need to take back 4b from them before they take it from us and ruin it.
If it's not too much trouble, could you create or link to a masterpost of what you consider the must-reads on anti-pornography/anti-prostitution? For example books you've referenced by Andrea Dworkin.
Hello! I will put together a real master-list when I have time but here is a quick list of must-reads regarding the anti-sex industry movement in the West:
If you want a primer, read X-underrated by Catharine Mackinnon. It’s only six pages long but it lays out the entire anti-sex industry movement clearly. If you only have time for one link, it’s this one.
Andrea Dworkin:
Books:
Woman Hating
Pornography: Men Posessing Women
Life and Death
Right Wing Women
Letters from a War Zone. Link for the chapter titled “Pornography’s Part in Sexual Violence”
After those I would recommend Last Days at Hot Slit, Intercourse, and Our Blood. Edited by both Dworkin and Mackinnon is In Harm’s Way: The Pornography Civil Rights Hearings (oral testimony of victims of pornography)
Article: Prostitution and Male Supremacy
Rebecca Whisnant:
Book: Not for Sale: Feminists Resisting Prostitution and Pornography. This is a collection of essays by feminist writers (including Dworkin!), edited by Rebecca Whisnant and Christine Stark.
Articles:
[Not] Buying It, Prostitution as Unwanted Sex.
Pornography, Humiliation, and Consent (read this one)
But What About Feminist Porn? (only one “feminist” pornographer is discussed in detail but Whisnant’s analysis is widely applicable)
Julia Long:
Book: Anti-Porn: The Resurgence of Anti-Pornography Feminism. This one is very theory-heavy, be warned.
Catharine Mackinnon:
Books: Only Words, Are Women Human?, and the chapter Francis Biddle’s Sister: Pornography, Civil Rights, and Speech from Feminism Unmodified
Article: OnlyFans is not a Safe Platform for “Sex Work.” It’s a Pimp
Sheila Jeffreys:
Books: The Industrial Vagina, The Idea of Prostitution, and Beauty and Misogyny (Chapters 4,5 and 8 especially)
Evelina Giobbe:
Book: Living with Contradictions. The chapter titled “Confronting the Liberal Lies about Prostitution” is a masterpiece.
Article: An Analysis of Individual, Institutional, and Cultural Pimping. Giobbe is also cited in Catharine Mackinnon’s article above.
Gail Dines:
Books: Big Porn Inc. and Pornland. Read both of these. Dr. Dines writes for the public and her arguments are easy to follow.
Video: Dr. Dines discussing Pornland
Margaret Baldwin:
Book: Prostitution and Pornography. Read the chapter titled “Split at the Root: Prostitution and Feminist Discourses of Law Reform”
Kathleen Barry:
Book: The Prostitution of Sexuality: The Global Exploitation of Women
Kate Millet:
Book: The Prostitution Papers (highly recommend, if you’re looking for a less academic piece)
Robert Jensen:
Book: Getting Off: Pornography and the End of Masculinity
Assorted Articles:
Kajsa Ekis Ekman interview, author of Being and Being Bought: Prostitution, Surrogacy, and the Split Self (disclaimer: Ekman is now a Russian propagandist, but the interview and book, which is also excellent, are almost 10 years old, so it’s up to you to read or not.)
Celia Smythe Anderson and Yolanda Estes, “The Myth of the Happy Hooker: Kantian Moral Reflections on a Phenomenology of Prostitutio.” Don’t be fooled by the jargon-y title, this piece is a breeze if you can find it (try an academic library)
Alexa Tsoulis Ray, “A Brief History of Revenge Porn”
Rae Story, interview with Francine Sporendo and “The Middle Classing of Prostitution: The Social Climb of the Sex Trade”
Sarah Ditum, “Why I changed my mind about porn”
Max Waltman, “Legal Challenges to Pornography and Sex Inequality in Canada and the United States”
EDIT THE 4B MOVEMENT WIKIPEDIA PAGE
When the narrative is controlled by men, of course, the Wiki page is going to be awful and revisionist. So it is really up to us to edit the page. Right now the top editor is a Korean male. The article is semi-protected to prevent vandalism so you need to have an account to edit, your account needs to be at least 4 days old, and you need to make 10 edits.
1. Create a Wiki account if you have not done so.
2. Complete 10 edits (these can be basic edits that fix basic spelling or grammar errors.
3. Wait for 4 days
4. EDIT the hell out of that page.
While you are waiting please do research. I would recommend using Naver (Korean search engine), looking through the WOMAD website (they are credited with creating the movement), and reading over Wikipedia rules and guidelines.
SHARE THIS PLEASE
Happy 2025 to women and girls only ❤️ may you get everything you wish for this year
women please take self defence classes and do not listen to men that tell you it’s futile to fight against a man. learning to defend yourself from men is not the same as when men fight each other, you are not trying to beat the shit out of him, you are trying to hurt him just enough so that you can get away. you can learn techniques to prevent a man from grabbing or choking you or how to escape a grip on you. men can knock you out or kill you if they land a proper punch but you can reduce the chances of that happening. even if you’re very small, it really doesn’t hurt to be able to dodge a punch from a man but it’s something you have to practice. it doesn’t matter how strong he is if he misses.
“Around 830 women die every day due to preventable pregnancy complications. The world is missing an estimated 90 to 100 million women due to the extermination of female – not feminine – infants. In such a situation, to boldly declare that you “see no sex difference” reveals both ignorance and privilege. We’re back to the idea that female people cannot be credible witnesses to their own lives.”
— Glosswitch, “When Did Liberal Men Start Thinking it Was Acceptable to Tell Feminists How to be Feminist?” (via lavenderbunnies)
oh also support ur fellow women. hating men is vital and the more fun and flashy part so that’s what i’ve been harping on, but supporting ur fellow women is even more important.
