Your explanation was that women are so traumatized and fearful that they can’t help but say hyperbolic things that they don’t actually mean. To make a point, or something.
I don’t see how those two sentences are any different. Your explanation was that “I’d rather be in the woods with a bear than a man” actually means whatever. Well the statement wasn’t that whatever.

Say whatever the fuck that’s supposed to mean, instead.
