Sexist and abusive attacks on women, like \u201cyour body, my choice\u201d and \u201cget back to the kitchen,\u201d have surged across social media since Donald Trump\u2019s reelection, according to an\u00a0analysis<\/a>\u00a0from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

An X post from White nationalist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes last Tuesday night saying, \u201cYour body, my choice. Forever,\u201d has been viewed more than 90 million times and reposted more than 35,000 times. Between Thursday and Friday, the ISD recorded a 4,600% increase in mentions of the phrase on X. And a number of women on TikTok posted videos saying their comments had been filled with users posting the phrase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNick Fuentes\u201d was still trending on X and TikTok on Monday. The phrase \u201cwe own your body\u201d was also trending on TikTok, although many of the videos featured women pushing back on the trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYour body, my choice\u201d is an apparent subversion the phrase \u201cmy body, my choice,\u201d which was used by women as a rallying cry in support of reproductive rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rise in harassment signals that far-right online trolls and extremists feel emboldened by the outcome of an election that many had viewed as a referendum on women\u2019s reproductive rights<\/a>. <\/strong>On the campaign trail, Trump himself came under fire for comments about women, including that he would protect women<\/a> whether \u201cthey like it or not.\u201d Vice President-elect JD Vance also took heat for comments about women, including deriding<\/a> \u201cchildless cat ladies\u201d and calling Vice President Kamala Harris \u201ctrash.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of those trolls are part of the so-called \u201cmanosphere,\u201d which the ISD\u00a0describes<\/a>\u00a0as online \u201cmisogynistic communities that vary from anti-feminism to more explicit, violent rhetoric towards women.\u201d

And as with many types of online provocations, experts worry that this type of harassment could spill over into the offline world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Already, the ISD said, \u201cYoung girls and parents have used social media to share instances of offline harassment\u201d involving the phrase \u201cyour body, my choice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey include the phrase being directed at them within schools or chanted by young boys in classes,\u201d according to the report, published Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least one American school district sent a warning to parents this week, informing them that students had used the phrase to target girls at school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the days after the election, we have received reports of some students using the phrase, \u2018Your body, my choice,\u2019 often directed at female students,\u201d Cory Hirsbrunner, the superintendent of Stevens Point School District in Wisconsin, said in a e-mail to parents Monday that was shared with CNN. \u201cIt is simply unacceptable for students to use any language that is threatening in nature. Any students found to have violated school district policy will be subject to disciplinary action.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In some cases, X and TikTok users responded to posts saying \u201cyour body, my choice\u201d with vague threats of retaliatory violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other, similar posts have also gone viral on X in recent days, including one from Jon Miller, a former contributor to conservative media outlet TheBlaze, saying<\/a>, \u201cwomen threatening sex strikes like LMAO as if you have a say,\u201d which received 85 million views. (The post appeared to refer to conversations among young liberal women across TikTok and Instagram about South Korean feminist movement in which straight women refuse to marry<\/a>, have children, date or have sex with men.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Posts calling for the repeal of the 19th Amendment, which gives women the right to vote, also surged 663% on X last week, compared to the prior week, the ISD reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

X did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The platform\u2019s harassment policy generally prohibits only targeted abuse of specific individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A TikTok spokesperson said \u201cyour body, my choice\u201d violates the platform\u2019s community guidelines and that content with mentions of the phrase would be removed unless it is explicitly speaking out against such language. TikTok removed three videos identified by CNN that appeared to suggest threats of retaliatory violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ratcheting up of violent online rhetoric also comes as Black people across the country last week\u00a0received anonymous, racist text messages<\/a>\u00a0referencing slavery and telling them they were \u201cselected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation,\u201d raising further concerns about violence in the wake of the election. Federal and state authorities are working to find the origins of the messages.
