Tap for context
Some woman on the internet said she would feel safer spending a night in the woods with a random bear rather than with a random man

I am unironically bearpilled in this context. Men can be fucking scary with women. At least I'm unlikely to be SA'd before I die, with the bear.
You're right. A bear wouldn't sexually assault you, he would simply kill you.
Yes! As opposed to the man, who would SA me and then kill me!
And also possibly eat you.
Look canonically the worst a bear will ever do is two out of three, only men have hit the hat trick
A polar bear likely
A brown bear maybe
A black bear unlikely
or eat you alive.
Oh my fucking god. I think it can't get any worse for a mother.
Why by default man is a serial killer and sa? What are the odds that dude is a psycho? What are the odds that bear is a killer? Do you understand how hard it is psychologically to murder someone if you are a normal person?
The man is not "by default" a serial killer and sa, its just a possibility I don't want to entertain.
And yes, hello, I am normal person. I understand how hard it is psychologically to murder someone. I also know how hard it is psychologically to SA someone. And yet...
This is a "this is the option I would take" situation. I didn't insult anyone, I didn't say YOU have to take the bear. If you disagree, that's perfectly okay, but you can't tell me how I should feel, despite many men thinking that's acceptable.
as always, the people most upset about the bear thing just so happen to also be sexists.
Your comment was clearly not from a position of wanting to understand.
And that's why we pick the bear.
You know what a bear's gonna do. You never know if a man is gonna turn into an abusive cunt.
stop, I can only get so bearect
Odds of a sexual abuser need not be high for the man, they're simply 0% for the bear.
Somebody's consumed too much tiktok paranoia porn
Are you referring to me? I wouldn't touch tiktok with a 10 foot pole, or any of the infinite scroll short form video things for that matter. I'm not on twitter either. Or tumblr.
My POV is based on my personal experience and the experiences of women around me. And statistics!
What the fuck did I say about black men? White men (men, regardless of race, for that matter) scare the fuck out of me my guy
E: You wouldn't happen to be a... man would you? Would be very fitting with the whole "derailing a conversation about women feeling unsafe" thing.
That's not a man, that's a troll.
Yeah I realised after a while. What a sad human.
You're thinking Emmitt Til and that wasn't because the white woman was afraid, it was because she was willing to go along with the white men.
