    The bear isn’t 1 out of 10. It’s 5 out of 10. Conservative estimate.

    Yet, because of your talking point which implies that men are worse than bears, due to the implicit argument you’re conveniently ignoring about some men being rapists (1 out of 10, remember?), you’d pick 50/50 odds of literally dying.

    It’s just a misandrist talking point. Not rational. Purely emotional and made to create dissent and division. It’s inherently offensive to the 9/10 other, innocent men lumped in with the choice.

    The typical crack back is that if you’re offended, you’re somehow part of the problem, a typical manipulation technique just to shut up opposition, because it’s not saying anything, just pointing fingers.

    This whole thing is a big joke at the expense of men all over.

      Dude you have told people to touch grass and you think running into a black bear means you have a 50/50 chance of dying? Bwahahaha. Why yes, I’d rather startle a black bear than be alone in the woods with a guy.

      Touch -and I can not emphasize this enough: Grass.

      As we all know women have a “this dude is a rapist” detector and “this dude is an abuser” detector, where we can easily distinguish between men who are threats and men who aren’t. Rape and DV only happen when we are waiting for the detectors to get back from regular maintenance or repair.

        I didn’t say black bear. Try polar bear for odds? I just took the combined bear odds. You’re just an idiotic troll.

        Funny extra, notice how you only focus on the worst men, and the best bear. Almost like your argument would fall apart otherwise

          Lmao it is incredibly unlikely to run into a polar bear in the mainland US. Much less likely than running into a violent man.

          Funny extra, notice how you only focus on the worst men, and the best bear.

          Nah we are talking averages and uncertainty that exists in a low information scenario.

      I think I’ll take my chances with the bear over you specifically. I know it won’t lecture me for getting away from it

          Oh my god I’m so sorry sir please tell me how my entire gender is always wrong about you specifically! And about our local wildlife. I definitely haven’t spent my entire childhood taught how to avoid bear attacks (and man attacks, but for some reason those lessons went on past childhood). I definitely just assumed I’d run instead of do what I was taught to do when hiking as a kid.

              You don’t want to avoid men, you’re actively going to internet forums and insulting all men. That’s not avoidance, it’s misandry.

            Strawman goes brrr. You really don’t want to acknowledge that there is no getting away from a bear that wants to catch you lmao.

            Also, make me laugh, subjugate women? By wanting them to acknowledge that picking “bear” is offensive to 99% of the population? You’re just avoiding the topic by putting all these words in my mouth because you know you’re a misandrist at heart and that would destroy your “argument”.
