In a new report, Seoul City councilor Kim Ki-duck argued that increased numbers of women in the workplace are making things harder for men.
— a feminist way of life in which women opt out of the patriarchy altogether — some politicians have taken to blaming the women of Seoul for men’s plummeting mental health. According to thethat the country’s “change into a female-dominant society” might “partly be responsible for an increase in male suicide attempts.” The councilor went on to imply that as women have joined the workforce in growing numbers, men have been left with lesser odds of finding a job and finding a woman to marry.
Councillor Kim reportedly came to this conclusion after setting about to analyze the number of suicide attempts made along Seoul’s Han river. As published on the city council’s website, the number of suicides there had climbed from 430 in 2018 to 1,035 in 2023, while the percentage of those attempts who were men rose from 67% to 77%.
