#man or bear
I think the biggest thing to remember about man vs bear discourse is that men are more likely to be both violently assaulted and killed than women
Mainstream cultural narratives around women's victimhood and men's villainy+heroism do not match objective reality, and probably do more harm than good

"As someone who spends her days watching nothing but true crime, I hate the idea that suburban housewives are 'paranoid'. We simply understand the dangers of our world. That's why I have weapons hidden in five places in my PT Cruiser alone. But one day I went outside and saw snow on top of my PT Cruiser, a sign that you've been marked by traffickers. So I went inside and fetched the knife hidden in my child's crib, prepared to take any measures to protect my family. But then I heard a twig break outside, a sure sign a murderer's afoot, out to traffic me, so I jumped in my SUV and forewent my afternoon trips to the Cheesecake Factory and Hobby Lobby to go to the woods.
"Lots of people are afraid of bears. But I know that between a bear and a man, I'd be more scared to encounter a man in the woods. But what about a boy bear? What kind of trafficking rings do bears run? A momma bear would intuitively understand me and treat me with kindness, but a boy bear might be dangerous. Too dangerous. I stashed my bedazzled AR-15 underneath the brakes and returned home.
"Luckily, my husband had returned from his shift as a cop, so everything at home was safe now!"

The same men getting testerical about women choosing the bear are the same men who would blame the woman for choosing the man if he attacked her. "What did she expect, talking to a strange man in the woods?"

With this whole man or bear debate, I'm seeing a hell of a lot of men blaming the beasts instead of reflecting on themselves.

My two cents on the Man v.s. Bear discourse is this...
...if you, as a man, feel compelled to argue against the already made choice of bear, you are proving why bear is the correct choice.
What you are doing is standing up, in front of the world, and admitting that you won't take a woman's no for an answer.
You are shamelessly displaying, admitting, that you are exactly the kind of guy that would not just ignore a woman's boundary, but actively chose to violate it, whether it's by continuing to send messages over social media, continuing to harass her in public, or Worse.
You are 100% a part of the problem.

As a girl who’s ALSO European, white men are not any better then MOC, Especially in Eastern Europe, where I’m from. Domestic Abuse is common and SA is overlooked. Also, sex tourism is prevalent in white men. Which if you don’t know; Sex tourism is the practice of traveling to foreign countries, often on a different continent, with the intention of engaging in sexual activity or relationships in exchange for money or lifestyle support. Which is something mostly only men do. White men aren’t better
I agree. however that's not the topic I was discussing. there is plenty of posts about that topic which is great. you are free to post about that & it is important content. and notice how no one will call you racist or nazi when you point out these things?
now, I was talking about how big amount of immigrant men from 3rd world countries with islamic backround are a threat to european women and girls due to their inability to adjust to local culture and european values. could we stop the whataboutism and stay in this topic? if it's THIS HARD for us to even talk about this how do you think we could ever solve this?
and last but not least, european countries - especially nordics like finland, norway and iceland are totally better countries from women to live in than many others. this is a fact supported by statistics too.

MC: That's not how this works!
Mammon: But if ya could! If ya could choose.
Asmodeus: You're missing the whole point of the question, Mammon.
MC: Thank you Asmodeus!
Asmodeus: And for the record, I would choose the bear too!

bear or man
With the recent trending question that is "would you rather be in the forest with man or w bear" I see lots of men trying to tell women their answer is "wrong." I, and many women, choose bear, which seems to be making men so mad that they are actually using their brains for once just to tell us why our answer to a 'would YOU rather' (keyword, YOU) question, is wrong.
Men, it's not about the bear attacking us. Men, it's not about the statistics of bear attacks. Instead of telling us that we are wrong like you always do, maybe stop and ask yourself why we are choosing the bear.
For those who can't get the message: I'd rather be mauled by a bear than be r@pee and murdered by a man. I'd rather be the prey of a bear than the prey of a man

Ulysses: So I ask you now, Courier, in this crucible of uncertainty: Will your choice of company be the man, or do you decide to entrust your future with the bear? Courier six: What the hell are you on about?!
