What does 6b4t mean?

It means not getting married, not having children, not falling in love, not buying misogynistic products, getting rid of corsets, getting rid of religion, getting rid of otaku culture, and getting rid of idols.

6b4t is a newly coined word for feminism, and it is an emerging feminist claim on the Chinese Internet in recent years.

6b is based on 4B of not getting married, not having children, and not falling in love, adding not buying misogynistic products and helping single women.

4t means taking off corsets, taking off religion, taking off otaku culture, and taking off idols.

It advocates the independence of women from the influence of male-centered political culture and the formation of a comprehensive female culture and female power.

The 6b4t movement originated in South Korea, and its birth is based on reality.

In South Korea, working women spend four times as much time on housework as their husbands.

Today, more and more women are turning their backs on traditional society's expectations of their roles as wives and mothers.

The environment of gender inequality has given rise to the "4b" proposition in South Korea.

Judging from public information on the Internet, Korean radical feminists put forward the "4b" proposition around 2019, that is, no marriage, no childbearing, no dating (love), and no sex.

According to incomplete statistics, as of 2020, approximately 4,000 women in South Korea claim to be members of the "4b" movement.

In addition to boycotting marriage and childbirth, the "4B" movement's advocacy has gradually expanded to a wider scope.

For example, "Escape the Corset" is a movement against South Korea's long-standing strict appearance standards, aiming to make society reflect on the male gaze and the pressure women face within it.

During this movement, many women shared videos of themselves breaking makeup.

On the basis of the original "4b", this movement added not buying misogynistic products and mutual aid among single women, as well as removing corsets, removing religion, removing otaku culture, and removing idols, becoming "6b4t,".
