Exactly. It’s passive aggressive manipulation, and it will never have the impact they want it to have.

Probably because for the majority of educated men in the West, male violence against women is not a real thing. It’s why in the article, it says that men who participate in these conversations are confused that it exists. That’s not a gaslighting problem. That’s a spotlight problem.

33% of women will be sexually assaulted in impoverished areas, inner cities, and shitholes of the world. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen in wealthier, educated areas. But it’s so minuscule that it’s not an epidemic to cause a life of fear.

I think the one major outlier in this scenario is college. While educated, Western men are much less likely to sexually assault women, in college that rate increases exponentially.

Truly the stupidest meme of all time ever on twitter. Women don't understand how statistics work.


Yeah they keep using stats on bear attacks vs assaults/rapes/murders etc. on women by men as a means to justify picking the bear. Like bears just live among us in developed areas by the droves with an equal population.

Most women have been within arms reach of probably at least a dozen men a day since they were born. I challenge them to get within 2 feet of a bear a dozen times and see how serious they are about their answer

10% doesn’t seem like a REALLY high number?

Going from "bear" to "grizzly bear" completely changes the question.


Kinda funny how with bears the black ones are the safest ones to be around.

In every study done for measuring level of intelligence, women have been proven to be smarter then men but they continually perpetuate retarded shite.

Statistically women are attacked by men more than bears.

The Hypo is insane though.

if you’re picking a random bear and a random guy… Yoire absolutely way better off with the guy.

I’m more afraid of getting murdered by women than being killed by sharks… because I dont go in the ocean. But if I was in the ocean I am absolutely more afraid of a shark.

You can have this conversation and not sound insane if you just ask the question right.

But is the total number concerning?

If 10/2000 people sexually assault women and that number increases by 200% in college, the new number is 30/2000. Huge increase but still not 666/2000.

I am not a woman but if I was I would rather be raped and beaten by a man than be eaten alive by a bear.

Its really not much of a decision.

What the frick?

Do women think that bears only talk to baby pigs, steal picnic baskets, work for the Forrest service or sit on their beds silently all day while they are out and about buying hooker shoes?

I’d totally choose the bear and make him my friend. I’m like a Disney princess.

Reading the OT most days is enough to make women choose the bear. If it did decide to kill, at least it would be quick.

You sound so sure of yourself here.

To me, this question originated as facetious. And now I read 3 pages of a buncha butthurt men.

Hayy, lets go for a hike in the woods. Man or bear I am positive that together we could outsmart either.
