Tap for contextSome 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

I'd rather do neither but at least I know all the safety guidelines for how to not get a bear to tear my ass apart

Right, this is what folks aren’t understanding.

Yes a big ass bear is clearly more dangerous but like in reality the random man is much more variable and there are WAY more examples of what we’re capable of as opposed to what a bear does.

A bears nature is understood.

Yes a big ass bear is clearly more dangerous

If it is a black bear, which 99 percent of the time it would be, nah, the man is more dangerous. Black bears are scaredy cats.

Yes, the safety guidelines are not being close to a bear.
