Some woman on the internet said she would feel safer spending a night in the woods with a random bear rather than with a random man

    Why by default man is a serial killer and sa? What are the odds that dude is a psycho? What are the odds that bear is a killer? Do you understand how hard it is psychologically to murder someone if you are a normal person?

      The man is not “by default” a serial killer and sa, its just a possibility I don’t want to entertain.

      And yes, hello, I am normal person. I understand how hard it is psychologically to murder someone. I also know how hard it is psychologically to SA someone. And yet…

      This is a “this is the option I would take” situation. I didn’t insult anyone, I didn’t say YOU have to take the bear. If you disagree, that’s perfectly okay, but you can’t tell me how I should feel, despite many men thinking that’s acceptable.

      Odds of a sexual abuser need not be high for the man, they’re simply 0% for the bear.

        Are you referring to me? I wouldn’t touch tiktok with a 10 foot pole, or any of the infinite scroll short form video things for that matter. I’m not on twitter either. Or tumblr.

        My POV is based on my personal experience and the experiences of women around me. And statistics!
