And they were confused when women choose the bear
I'm a man and I also choose the bear. I frequently go backpacking and would absolutely prefer to come across a bear in the woods rather than a random man.
Does despising my gender make me realistic or does it make me a misandrist? Maybe it's both. Maybe being a misandrist and being a realist are the same fucking thing.
I'm a man, I do a lot of solo hiking and camping.Ii usually carry when I go into the woods and it's not for wild animals.
The last thing anyone wants when they're "alone in the woods" is finding out they're not alone. I'll take a wild animal experience over a wild human experience every time.
Hopefully it's a black bear, though.
Woah now, let’s not put bears into categories based solely on the colour of their fur.
Fun fact: Black bears can be several different colors!
Bears are less unpredictable. Also the woods are a context you expect to find a bear in so it's not out of the norm. All that combined with years and years of true crime stuff makes the answer to that question pretty predictable, regardless of the gender.
I have not actually read the primary source for this though, only encountered it on social media so maybe they asked men the same question and they chose another person? I should probably look it up.
