A gesture of "hugging" South Korea! Even the Olympic Organizing Committee discriminates against Korean men?

South Korea's performance in the Beijing Winter Olympics can be said to be "remarkable".

Wong Tai Sin led the foul,

Netizens cheat on the keyboard.

Min-Jeong Choi's failure made people cry on the court.

Teammates are laughing happily,

Athletes talk about missing food in their hometown,

Turn around and pack the watermelons in the restaurant.

However, the most important thing for Koreans to break the defense is the Olympic Organizing Committee.

Not long ago, the Olympic Organizing Committee posted a post on the official Twitter, which was intended to encourage everyone to participate in figure skating. I didn't expect Korean netizens in the comment area to fry the pot, and many people said they were offended by this gesture in the picture.

Over the past year, this gesture has caused an uproar in South Korea, and the government and enterprises have apologized for it. A series of social movements have also taken place around it, and even changed the political situation in South Korea to some extent.

Things have to start with GS25, the largest convenience store chain in Korea. Last May, they released a poster promoting camping products. Unexpectedly, it triggered a massive crusade. The crowd surrounded the convenience store and waved their fists in protest. Upon inquiry, it was learned that these protesters came from an organization called "Unite People". What angered them was this stick figure gesture on the poster. They think:

This gesture is a symbol of discrimination against Korean men.

According to statistics, the average size of Korean male Tintin is 6.9 cm. )

This poster just drew a cute little red sausage next to the gesture, which made them feel very embarrassed.

Under the great pressure of public opinion, GS25 changed the poster and publicly apologized to the badly hurt Korean puppet. But things are not over yet. A large-scale "anti-misogyny" and "anti-discrimination" campaign has begun. Male-dominated organizations turned on a sensitive small radar and began to look for clues about this gesture in major advertisements, televisions and posters.

Cookie advertisements, posters of women's groups, no-smoking signs, social media photos, the movie Black Widow, and even posters urging people to get the COVID-19 vaccine have all been labeled as "hating men".

The sensitivity of male chauvinism in South Korea is simply outrageous: this is part of the map of Pohang, South Korea. "Oh my god, you see, even the map dare to ridicule our size! ! "

And this picture, can you find out where this gesture is?

Let's use animation to reveal the answer.

It's really crazy Open the damn door. This is crazy.

How amazing is this gesture, which can hurt the fragile and soft hearts of Korean men at will?

This is actually related to the long-standing gender opposition in Korea.

In the Korean Internet context, words related to private parts are often used to insult and belittle women, just like the popular saying "black fungus" in China a long time ago. In order to counter these humiliations, on 20 15, Megalia, a Korean extreme feminist organization, responded with blows in a way that implied that Tintin was very small. This gesture later evolved into the symbol of Megalia.

The average person should not be seated for this connotation. After all, if you admit that you have been ridiculed, you are also "exposing yourself". However, Korean men are really special. They are determined to eliminate all the "hold" posture of South Korea. With the intensification of protests, nearly 60% of South Korean young people believe that gender opposition is one of the most serious social contradictions in South Korea. Even An Shan, a female athlete who won the gold medal in archery for South Korea at the Tokyo Olympic Games, was subjected to cyber violence. Just because of her short hairstyle, Korean men even petitioned the government to deprive her of the championship title.

And what this Megalia organization has done is incredible. They hate men to the point of madness and deformity. For example, taking photos of naked men and spreading photos on the Internet, drugging a boy and sexually assaulting him in Australia, taking pictures of his sleeping father with a knife, and calling the Korean War "the biggest barbecue in history" because countless North Korean male soldiers died in this battle.

They will attack not only men, but also women who disobey them. They are not typing and cursing on the Internet, but attacking people. Please tell them in the ICU. Even male animals are born to die, such as killing male cats.

In short, the ultimate goal of this organization is to "exterminate North Korean men".

So, how did the gender opposition in South Korea evolve to the point where it is incompatible today?

In fact, there is no contradiction of gender opposition in Korea in history, and women are kneeling. Where is the opposition? In Korea, the head of the family must be a man, and this law was not abolished until 2005.

There is also the personal safety of women. South Korea never regards rape as harming women's health, but chastity. This law was abolished only by 1994. The legalization of female abortion in Korea was not established until 2020. Until today, the proportion of working-age women in Korea is less than 60%, and the median wage is only 68% of that of men. Nearly 90% of major violent crimes are committed by women. Su Yuan's case, Zhang Ziyan's case and Room N's case shocked the world, but it still can't stop the frequent occurrence of sexual assault cases in South Korea. Korean women generally believe that they are in an unsafe and unequal social atmosphere, so various activities against harassment and advocating equality emerge one after another.

However, many men don't understand.

Two prominent features of Korean society are paternalism, in which superiors and subordinates beat and scold their subordinates for no reason, which leads to widespread alcoholism among Korean men. After getting drunk, he came home, abused his wife, and vented the pressure in the workplace. The proportion of alcoholism and domestic violence reached 43%.

Not only that, why should men be forced into military service, but women should not? In the eyes of Korean men, all their sorrows and misfortunes are caused by gender. I can't find a partner because women hate men; I can't find a job because the company hates men; My salary is low, because women's salary is lower.

In this way, the firepower of opposition has become more and more fierce, and the social structure of South Korea has undergone subtle changes. If anyone is most sensitive to this change, it is certainly a politician.

At the age of 36, Li Junxi, the youngest party leader in Korean constitutional history, keenly captured this change and won many votes for himself. Describing himself as a representative of the younger generation, he openly declared that radical feminism was as toxic as terrorism. She won the support of a large number of young men in their twenties and thirties by attacking the harm of feminism to men. He said in an interview that he got the support of young people, perhaps because I said what they wanted to say.

Returning to the problem of gender opposition in South Korea, we can only say that if the two sexes in a country can't recognize each other, accept each other, unify their cognition and demands, and defeat each other with magic, it can only be harvested by politicians with more advanced magic. On the topic of gender, contradictions will stimulate more contradictions, and extremes will lead to more extremes.
