    I just want to say that I feel like most people in this this thread have never been alone in the forest with a bear. I have and even as a guy that shit will get your pulse racing. I feel that if you were in the forest alone with a bear and THEN you got to decide if you were rather the bear was a man, 90% of people would switch to a man once they realized what that felt like. Don’t believe me? Watch the show “Alone” and see how badly these PROFESSIONAL survival experts are shaken by bear encounters.

          lmao misandry isn’t a real problem in any meaningful sense. it’s only ever trotted out by men in conversations like these where they’re desperate to get a W over women.

      I guarantee all these women if they were alone in the woods, they would ATTACH themselves to a random man, no bear required.

      Women hate men until it’s time to lift something heavy or be protective or mow the lawn.

      I’ve been alone in the forest with a bear and it just sat there doing its own thing as I walked by, doing my own thing.

      Dude what? Bears don’t give a shit about you. Unless you charge the bear it’s going to be fine.

      Am women, love hiking. Have encountered bears many times. I stay calm, keep my distance and appreciate them for the beautiful animals they are. (And yes, I’d pick bear, everytime.)

      I just want to say that I feel like most people in this this thread have never been raped by a man. I have and I just have to ask, did this bear molest you in any way? Lay a paw on you? Stalk you? Kill you? Rob you? Threaten you? Fire you? Beat you up? Talk shit about you to the other bears?

      Like what in hell is this little story, guy? You saw a bear, you’re a fucking coward, the end. Oh wait… and some TV show - bears are bad, m’kay?

      Like “Listen hear ladies, there’s a bunch a dipshits who went and got themselves scared by bears, including me! You should also be afraid” (Oh, we are). My man, even men (and boys) are molested, raped, murdered, or just disappeared, like we’ll likely never know what happened to them… at rates that bears just don’t even give a shit about because they’re fucking bears and they really aint about just killing and mutilating a mother fucker (or a mother) like a man actually is, right now, probably not to far from you.
