Sex-positive feminism had its moment – and now it has been replaced by voluntary celibacy | Arwa Mahdawi
From the ‘boysober’ trend in the US to the 4B movement in South Korea, more and more heterosexual women are giving up sex, writes Arwa Mahdawi

REEEEEEEEE. I fucking wish I was in a position to "give up", on sex, rather than sex giving up on me before I even had a chance to try it out.
Yeah, sure, voluntary celibacy is what is having its moment now.Get thee to a nunnery! Apparently it’s the hottest place to be. While we still very much live in a sex-saturated world, voluntary celibacy is having something of a moment.
"Muh Tiktok".Evidence of this is everywhere. TikTok, for example, is full of videos of young people extolling the virtues of abstaining from sex.
Jfl at writing "people" in an article meant for women, in a place where it obviously means women. Yeah, some volcel females are probably boasting about the fact that they are so sexually privileged that they can choose to not have sex, because they could get sex any time they wanted and are freely choosing not to, while a bunch of young guys are probably desperately explaining there how they aren't incels despite not being able to have sex whether they want it or not.
A woke feminist journalist conflating asexuality with normal, sexual heteros simply not having sex? I'm shocked, yikes sweaty, those stereotypes are not very progressive.Meanwhile, a new Lithuanian romcom called Slow has brought asexuality to the big screen.
Yeah, we are aware of them.In South Korea there is a viral “4B” movement, which gets its name from the four types of bi or “no”: bihon, no heterosexual marriage; bichulsan, no childbirth; biyeonae, no dating; and bisekseu, no heterosexual sexual relationships.
A misandrist youtuber made a video celebrating South Korea's 4B movement (basically South Korea's WGTOW)
For those who don't know, the 4B movement, and @Mortis and @1nsomniak have already made threads about it, is a radical feminist South Korean movement which means "4 ´no´s", as they want women to say "no" to: Sex with men, dating men, child-rearing and marriage with men. I've just seen a post on...

Also, as much as I cometimes can shit on JBW pushers, I'm definitely tempted to add "...until a white Chad steps out of the immigration office" to that description.
I haven't been this happy to not have any idea what something was for quite some time. Also, not to be too lookist on an incel forum, but is this """comedian""" Amy Schumer-sized by any chance?In the US, generation Z comedian Hope Woodward has started a “boysober” trend, which involves straight young women eschewing dating.
"You see all those virginity lines going up? The same thing we were telling you wasn't happening? Well guess what inkwells, a new script just dropped, not only is it happening but it's actually good and everyone not having sex is happy, checkmate!"
Oh, so now it isn't?Thousands of words have been written about the great sex recession. It’s hardly some sort of underground trend.
Oh so now, now, after years of endless repeating of the opposite, suddenly it's bad for women to be encouraged to be promiscuous and enjoy casual sex? Suddenly it's unfeminist?Nevertheless, Bumble, the dating app which once styled itself as a beacon of women’s empowerment because heterosexual women had to make the first move, appears to have missed the memo. A few weeks ago the company launched a global advertising campaign the point of which seemed to be to make casual sex great again. “A vow of celibacy is not the answer,” one billboard read. “Thou shalt not give up on dating and become a nun,” proclaimed another.
And I love the barely disguised dislike of what Bumble is doing. Just a few years after endless MeToo drama, with women endlessly moaning how unsafe they feel around literally all men, suddenly an app which makes sure that it's women who initiate conversations so those supposed "creeps", who always just dare to exist and try talking to women while being under-average looks-wise, is somehow bad and unfeminist.
Gigamogs me if your "celibacy" is a response to drama, rather than just a continuing of it in a lifelong script of social exclusion.The campaign – which Fast Company described as “eyebrow-raising”, “controversial” and “tone-deaf” – did not land well. Some critics pointed out that celibacy can be a response to trauma.
“An intriguing 2011 study by Marie-Aude Boislard, François Poulin, and Melanie J. Zimmer-Gembeck offer more tantalizing clues. The researcher found that there is no singular route to adulthood virginity. While media attention has focused on young people purposefully choosing sexual abstinence, others seem to remain a virgin due to a lack of choice. And indeed this is an accurate description of the men that I have worked with. The study found that, during late childhood, individuals who matured into involuntary virgins were: more victimized and ridiculed by peers as children, socially withdrawn (preferred to play alone), and also less liked and accepted by their peers.
[STUDY] Involuntary adult virgins often were bullied and ostracized by their peers during childhood

Of course, more "muh abortions". Meanwhile, this is happening worldwide.Others noted that abstaining from sex might be a smart move in a post-Roe US, where one accident could mean you are forced by repressive laws to give birth to a child you are not ready for and can’t possibly afford.
“In a world fighting for respect and autonomy over our bodies, it’s appalling to see a dating platform undermine women’s choices,” tweeted Jordan Emanuel, a former Playboy model who made headlines after taking a vow of celibacy for a year.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Fuck, this shit is making me so irrationally angry, fuck!The actor Julia Fox was similarly unimpressed. “2.5 years of celibacy and never been better tbh,” she commented on a post about Bumble. Fox hasn’t talked much about her celibacy but last year she told Elle that she just wanted to be left alone and was sick of men. “I feel like knowingly engaging in a heterosexual relationship, you are signing yourself up for an unhealthy dynamic,” she mused.
This shit is like when some rich Westerners come to dirt-poor third world countries, take a bunch of pics of the "beautiful, natural scenery" and post some bullshit "spiritual" quotes talking about how "liberating" it is to be away from their depressive work lives or whatever, while knowing full well that the underdeveloped, the so-called "natural" scenery they took pics of, with no modern technology or wealth in sight, is exactly the reason why the locals are so poor and underprivileged in comparison to their overprivileged Western asses.
Yet, while people will at least sometimes call out the Western rich kids dabbing on the locals in whatever LDC shithole they are spending their gap year in, nobody will react to rich, privileged and attractive women who can never have a problem getting sex whenever they'd want dabbing on the people suffering due to being unwanted and ostracized their entire lives by talking about how "great" celibacy is.
And why was that? Who was pushing and saying that stuff, which gender was that?That said, the brouhaha over the “great Bumble fumble” (as the controversy is being termed), does point to a fascinating change in culture. Sex-positive feminism, which was all about unapologetically celebrating female sexuality, has been on the way out for a few years now, and this feels like its final death knell. To be fair, some sort of correction was probably due. Sex-positive feminism went from “hey, women shouldn’t feel ashamed about enjoying sex” to “it’s feminist to enjoy being choked while having lots of casual sex” alarmingly quickly.
It wasn't men saying that they felt empowered when they could choke women while fucking them, it was the empowered women themselves claiming that it's empowering to be in touch with their sexuality by being roughly fucked like whores while being choked and spat on, and that the submissives are the ones with true power in BDSM relationships anyway. "Well yeah, the dominant can do whatever they want with their sub, but the moment the sub says it's over then it's over, the subs are the ones with the true power there."
Reminds me of that Reddit experiment where they asked men and women what their ultimate sexual fantasy was. For men, it was pretty much just vanilla sex with a really hot, cute girl that liked them, the sex itself and what happened during it barely mattered as long as it was with an attractive, cute, kind girl who had true feelings for them. Meanwhile for women, the highest rated comment was some fucking objectification gangbang with multiple commenters replying to disbelieving males, saying that it indeed was hot to be treated like an object.
"W-w-w-w-we were tricked." Tricked into WHAT you fucking cunt?! It was the feminists who ruthlessly rallied against anything that could curtail female sexuality, and you've gotten just that. After you did so, you freely shared, by the millions, what exactly you consider to be hot and what you are looking for. Which gender were the majority of people buying and reading 50 Shades of Gray again? Which gender were most people reading and watching 365 Dni?What was meant to liberate women turned into a repackaging of the patriarchy. “It feels like we were tricked into exploiting ourselves,” one twentysomething told BuzzFeed, summing up the general vibe. A new passion for celibacy among young women feels like a natural way of putting that chapter of feminism to bed.
The people who "tricked" you were other women and the only thing you were "tricked" into was revealing your collective desires, and now you don't like that, so you cry that this wasn't supposed to happen and that your choices and actions are men's fault.
Love how most feminists shit on TERFs, but when it comes to stuff they don't like, they can't deny their gender and act exactly like TERFs do. It's women who are more pro-trans than men, by a massive margin, it's women pushing for trans rights while men are disgusted by them (can personally confirm, saw two trannies today and I wish I didn't have to), it's overwhelmingly women who protest whenever some antisocial and criminal men kill a tranny, it's feminism that was pushing the LGBT (yes, T as well) bullshit for years, and then TERFs turn around and say that akshually, it's men who are pushing trannies and transgenderism and all of those pro-trans women, who are the clear, overwhelming majority of pro-trans people, are just manipulated victims puppettered by evil male masterminds to fight against their rights and interests.
Literally the exact same dynamic here, except with kinky sex and sex in general in place of trannies.
