The shit thing is it's about rape and kidnapping, and not about being eaten alive. All the women are acting like the bear is a fucking teddy bear. Of course I'd prefer to be with a teddy bear then a strange person.
It's like covid and antivaxxers. All these women who picked the bear should be dropped off on Kodiak island and left to fend for themselves. One way or another, eventually most living women would pick the man.
It doesn't push men to be predators, it pushes men towards the Andrew Tates of the world. Misogyny is the only form of proud masculinity still standing.
Yes the bear fucking matters, that's the whole reason why men are getting angry. The question isn't "do strange men scare you?" We KNOW strange men are scary. We GET IT. We AGREE. We don't want to be around strange men either!
There's got to be a line drawn at blatant misandry/misogyny/racism/antisemitism/etc
There's no call to calm down and have a rational discussion with Klan members, for example. Racism is unacceptable. Maybe that's not the best course of action, but it's how society has decided to treat the subject.
Why does misandry get a pass? It should be just as unacceptable as misogyny or racism or transphobia.
If the bear didn't matter it wouldn't be in the question. You're not saying "men can be dangerous". You're saying "the average man is specifically scarier than a bear" which is gross and insulting and a terrible, toxic mindset.
Honestly, thinking about it rationally, maybe we should be having more discussion with Klan members. Instead of alienating them, we could convince them that racism is stupid.
But that's tough to do. I couldn't do it.
For our current purposes, I'm just arguing for consistency.
If women encountered as many bears in their day to day life as they do men, I'm sure the number of deadly bear attacks would be much higher than the rate of assault from strange men.
It's stupid on so many levels. Statistically, you're far more likely to be murdered by a woman than be attacked by a shark. But no one is going around saying that sharks are safer than women.
Sure, but that wasn't the question. It's "would you rather a man or a bear?"
If the question was, "do you trust random guys", of course everyone would say no.
At the least, it’s not problematic
I strongly disagree. Bigotry is not okay. Casually attacking men for existing is not okay. And yes, saying you think fucking bears are less dangerous than men is an attack.
They're the only ones who don't just act however women tell them to act. That's very appealing to someone looking for somewhere to anchor their self image.
Great. That's an explanation, not an excuse. What you're saying is that a lot of women need a lot of therapy because they're letting their traumas dictate their actions.
Getting upset that a trauma victim is afraid of reliving their trauma just straight up lacks any kind of empathy.
Empathy went out the window when women decided to call bears less dangerous than men. That's not an empathetic statement. That's a bullshit statement. Sure, driven by trauma and an understandable irrational reaction, but bullshit all the same.
Statistically, the vast majority of random muggings and assaults are done by men, so I actually think this is fair. As far as this particular scenario goes.
Your dogs are so cute! I love the upside downness. How often do you groom them? They look very clean. I've got a hairy dog and I really should be taking her to the groomers every week, but it's so expensive.

You have 24 hours to do anything with absolutely no consequences. What do you do?
Ladies if all the men of the world disappeared for 24 hours, they are fine they will come back, BUT during those 24 hours what are YOU doing?
This question has been around for a while but I'm curious as to your answer
What looks easy peasy lemon squeezy but is actually difficult difficult lemon difficult?
