Class, I'd like to talk to you today about prejudice, and how it still exists in today's world. I didn't even know that till last night, when I saw a real smart, totally cool Asian girl crying her eyes out because some idiot at the mall called her a bad name. My lesson for today, is that when people treat other people badly because of their skin color, or their religion,or where they come from, then real smart, totally cool people can really suffer.

Top, Ceroplast, anatomical bust with Verminaio, 1699-1700, by Gaetano Giulio Zumbo, Ceroplasty, wood and glass case, Height of the wooden work without pinnacles and feet: 41 cm; height of pinnacles: 13.5 cm; height of feet: 6.5 cm; largest side of trapezoidal base: 60 cm; smallest side: 38 cm; depth: 25 cm. Via.

Zumbo had a particular predilection for the figurative depiction of the human body in decay. Witness the waxwork of the Anatomical Bust with Vermin, in which the appearance is emotionally disconcerting both in anatomy and in the rendering of details. The body, corrupted by decomposition, emerges in a disgusting scenario in which animals rage against putrescent flesh, set inside a wooden case with three trapezoidal openings. The young man's face suggests a violent death, given the multiple wounds in several places: in the face, skull and neck. The eye sockets are turned upwards and describe the ultimate search for a different beyond, free of suffering and finally safe. The identification of the young man is not certain, but sources suggest that during his French sojourn he met the 'General of the galleys'(3) , for whom he executed an anatomical head. This Anatomical Bust with Vermin probably dates back to that time and could identify the young man as a convict who had a rope or chain around his neck during his stay, a punishment for his conviction, as the gash in his throat suggests. The work is not lacking in symbolism and meaning: the rat represents anguish, disgust and degradation, just as the cockroach represents darkness, depression and death. The moth on the other hand, in the Christian imagination, is an emblem of resurrection and salvation precisely because of its path. Therefore, Zumbo tried to 'represent both good and evil, darkness and light, the rottenness of the flesh and decay and the Christian dream of resurrection'(4) . In conclusion, the background of the shrine is painted in broad brushstrokes without suggesting a specific description.

In South Korea some women have sworn off heterosexual relationships altogether. In 2019 a fringe “4B” movement emerged there. It involves women abstaining not just from marriage and childbirth, but also dating and sex with men. They believe a life with a man is a life without freedom. “I’m not even fighting the patriarchy—I’ve decided to walk out of it,” says Kim Jina, a 4B practitioner.

Another factor is that anger towards women is being stoked online. Mr Kim, the chef, follows Bae In-gyu, an influencer on YouTube who leads “New Men on Solidarity”, a men’s-rights group. Mr Bae claims that “feminism is a mental illness.” In South Korea, a popular online slur among men is kimchinyeo or “kimchi bitch”, a term that implies young Korean women are materialistic, controlling and willing to live parasitically off men. In Japan tsui-femi, which is short for “Twitter feminists”, has become a derogatory term.

Similar to incels (or involuntary celibates) in the West, a group of Japanese men known as jakusha-dansei or “weak men” have emerged. “When it comes to dating, women overwhelmingly have decision-making power,” says Horike Takeshi, a 25-year-old Japanese man who has never had a girlfriend. He identifies as a “weak man” because of his low income and lack of sex appeal to women.
