Someone made this comment about the whole "Would you rather run into a bear or a man in the woods" scenario....and it's on point.
This is for all the men who are big mad that women are saying they’d rather encounter a bear in the woods than a man.
For all the man screaming “this isn’t fair, it’s not all men!”
For all the men who are Stubbornly. Not. Getting. It.
First, we don’t care that it’s not fair. Second, you men are the whole reason this conversation exists. YOU made this problem. YOU.
🐻 A bear won’t hit you in the face with a brick if you won’t give it your phone number.
🐻 A bear won’t stalk you if it told you you’re pretty and you said you weren’t interested.
🐻 A bear won’t pretend to be kind to get you to lower your guard.
🐻 A bear won’t lock you in a basement for months to torture you.
🐻 A bear generally won’t bother you if you’re not bothering it.
🐻 If you encounter a bear, it will almost always retreat slowly because it means you no harm.
🐻 If you do get attacked by a bear and you say so, people will believe you.
🐻 No one will ask you what you were wearing that made the bear attack you.
🐻 No one will ask you how much you had to drink.
🐻 No one will ask you what you were thinking, being in the woods.
🐻 No one will ask you if you even tried to fight back.
🐻 No one will ask you if you led the bear to believe you wanted to be attacked.
🐻 No one will condemn you for not fighting back harder.
🐻 No one will arrest you for harming the bear.
🐻 No one will say you deserved the attack.
🐻 No one will ask how many bears you allowed to attack you before.
🐻 The bear won’t say you were asking for it.
🐻 The bear won’t say it was consensual.
🐻 The bear won’t try to convince everyone you’re lying.
🐻 The bear won’t get his buddies to maul you too.
🐻 The bear won’t threaten you to get you to keep the attack a secret.
🐻 If you survive a bear attack, you don’t have to worry that the bear might be good friends with medical staff or the police.
🐻 You won’t have to hear that you’re making it all up to get attention.
🐻 You won’t have your reputation called into question.
🐻 You won’t get called a slut.
🐻 People won’t tell you you’re paranoid for being cautious around bears.
🐻 People won’t tell you that not all bears are dangerous.
🐻 If a bear attacks you, you won’t be told it wouldn’t be fair to ruin the bear’s future by bringing it up.
🐻 You won’t be told the bear is from a nice family and they don’t deserve the humiliation of an arrest.
🐻 IF A BEAR ATTACKS YOU, WE KILL THE BEAR SO IT DOESN’T HARM ANYONE ELSE.

If you still don’t get it, consider this:
Many women in the woods carry bear spray…
…AND IT’S NOT BECAUSE OF BEARS.
And finally, ask yourself this: If you hear human footsteps near you in the woods, are you hoping it’s a man or a woman? Pretty much EVERY woman would be praying it’s a woman.
In 2020-2022, bears killed a whopping 8 people in North America. Even if all 8 were women, that’s not even close to the approximately 12,000 women who were killed by men in that time period.
Bears = 8
Men = 12,000
It’s a real head scratcher guys.
It’s a YOU problem.
