No one learns anything if they just leave. You’d rather they just get the impression that most women are dumb, hate men, and don’t know anything about bears?
Making the question so inflammatory is a double edged sword, you reach a larger audience, but you’re way more likely to drive people from your cause.
It’s okay for men to have feelings, I don’t get why everyone expects them to be cold calculating machines that automatically have the required knowledge and emotional intelligence to see through this esoteric bear question. Hell, there’s a good chunk of women on side man.
A little empathy and respect goes a long way, you can’t get anywhere just making enemies
That’s very nice and all - I don’t disagree - but I don’t know what it has to do with what I said.
If anyone assumes they are being personally targetted by a woman’s response to the question as being on “side bear” … They should stop thinking that they are the main character of the story. Though tbh, they are probably telling on themselves since they are in fact the ones without empathy in this equation.
You meant they should stop having emotions? Rather than stop defending themselves?
The statement is making a large generalisation about a group that they’re part of. With every single other group it’s socially acceptable to find that offensive, yet these men are expected to “to take it like a man” and not get upset?
I’m not saying they’re right assuming it’s about them, but it’s easy to see how the mistake can happen.
No, and I don’t know how you’re getting that from what I’ve said.
In the scenario there is a hypothetical man and a hypothetical bear. There’s no reason to self-insert oneself as the man, except as an excuse to get outraged in a #notallmen fashion. A (real, non-hypothetical) man taking offense to the answer by assuming they are being indicted is just showing his own narcissism by making the hypothetical about himself.

It is so inflammatory that it reads as intentional trolling to me. Same energy as “Islam is right about women”. The question wasn’t proposed to generate any sort of insight, it’s just to stoke the flames.

The literal title of this post forces anyone who doesn’t already understand the issue, to then view themselves as said man
The world needs more people who think like you.
