So there's a new stupid viral trend where women are being asked if they would rather be stuck in a forest with a bear or a man, and an alarming amount of them is picking the bear rather than the man.
Justifications given is that people will believe them if they say they were attacked by a bear.
The worst thing the bear can do is kill them.
Bears don't roofie drinks.

So most of us are going to be dudes answering this, so to make it interesting, imagine if the question would be if you would want your girlfriend/wife/daughter stuck in a forest with a bear or a man. Would you change your answer?

Woman: "I'd rather be stuck in a forest with a bear than a man."
Bear: [mauls woman]
Woman: "WHERE ARE ALL THE MEN CHIVALRY IS DEAD"

I try not to let myself make generalizations like "women are retarded" but they sure don't make it easy.

What kind of bear are we talking? 'Cause I think you could probably scare off a black bear without too much trouble unless it's defending its cubs. But something like a grizzly? Nah, I'd pick the guy. Better odds.

I see a lot of people trying to be cute by claiming the black bear is harmless, but what this is revealing is a worldview in which man are just automatically dangerous. The man could just as well be an 80 year old harmless codger.
Can't male black bears get rather large as well?

Black bears prey and eat humans, brown bears attack you since they get startled or are protecting their cubs. Hence the playing dead for brown bears and fighting back for black bears.

Can really go both ways here, I would rather be stuck in a forest with a potential saint of a human being then a black bear but at the same time I wouldn't want to be stuck in a forest with a murderous man instead of a brown bear.

 

[Chaos Theorist]

I can kill and eat the man
Cant do that with the bear

 

[VargReallyDidNothingWrong]

The worst thing the bear can do is kill them.

Women will treat being raped as a "fate worse than death" but for some reason next to none of them will fight back to the point of death when being raped

Really curious why that is

Yeah, but see, if you’re bloody and bruised and can’t stop shaking because you were violently attacked by a man, people will believe that too.

What people tend to be a bit skeptical of is when you have zero evidence or indication of an attack …and in fact, it turns out that you texted the man, “had a great time in the forest, let’s do the mountains next! Have a great week you sexy sexy stud, xoxoxo”

Bonus, you wait five years to come forward.

People wouldn’t believe you if you pointed at some random golden retriever in the park and screamed, “he bit me five years ago!” Meanwhile the dog being friendly and wagging its tail.

And if you hear that story and you conclude, “I’d rather be trapped in a room with a pit bull because nobody will doubt me if I say it attacked me” that makes you a gigantic fucking retard.

 

[Broadside]

Women can pretend bears are not a menace because men made society safe enough for them to do so

 

[Fireman Sam]

Checkmate liberals!

 

[The Evil Midnight Bomber]

Is the guy armed? Am I?

it betrays the thought process behind the whole thing
they subconsciously expect that they will come out of the situation alive and well either way, the idea that the bear will actually maim or kill them doesn't even register

Would these be the same women who:
- nag everyone on elitist college campuses, some of the safest places on earth, about the ever-present danger of "rape culture"...
- then move to blue Prog megacities where they're actually at risk of attack, and...
- refuse to charge or imprison the ones doing the raping, while importing more hordes of Third World men?

I honestly feel for the plight of modern women, but until they stop voting for politicians who enable BLM violence while jailing Daniel Penny and other Good Samaritans, and giving sanctuary to face-tatted foreign gangs, they're on their own.

The bear will never pretend to be your friend, make promises and then break them, forget to wipe his ass, or drink into the wee hours of the morning and then sleep into the afternoon.

 

[Otterly]

Is it a trick question? Like the man is a serial killer and the bear is a red panda or something? Also am I armed?
Otherwise if it’s ’man from typical office ’ vs ‘hungry grizzly’ I think you choose man.
But why am I stuck in the forest? Why is the man on the forest?
It’s a dumb question. Too much depends on motivation and intent. The justification that people will believe you if you’re attacked by a bear is even dumber. If a grizzly attacks you you’re unlikely to escape to go tell people.
If the scenario is I’m armed and can get out and both man and bear would be after me I’d probably choose bear, becasue a human would be a more dedicated and harder to trick opponent. But in all other scenarios,
, man.

 

[Colloid]

I honestly would rather take my chances fashioning a crude spear to take down the bear than deal with another person who could get away with murdering me.
