The Birth Strike in South Korea
In South Korea, women are engaging in a birth strike and marriage strike as a response to pervasive sexism and a culture of violent chauvinism. The country has recorded the lowest fertility rate in the world, with women choosing to prioritize personal and professional fulfillment over traditional gender roles. The birth strike is seen as women's retaliation against a society that puts impossible burdens on them and fails to respect them. The strike highlights the need for gender equality and the dismantling of patriarchal norms that harm both women and men.
