There's a question going around online:

Would you rather have your daughter in the woods with a strange man or a bear?
It's now asked if women would rather be in the woods with a strange MAN or a BEAR.
Almost always, when asked, women choose the bear. This makes some men uncomfortable because it shows that women trust a bear more than a strange man.
HERE ARE THE TOP 10 REASONS WOMEN GIVE FOR CHOOSING THE BEAR:
10. No one would blame my outfit if the bear attacked me.
9. No one would say I liked being attacked by the bear.
8. It's easier to understand why a bear might attack.
7. A bear wouldn’t think I was inviting an attack by being nice.
6. I wouldn’t be forced to have a bear's baby in 27 states.
5. The bear would take my life or leave me alone. It wouldn’t do other horrible things.
4. Bears don’t kidnap women.
3. A bear’s friends wouldn’t defend it by saying it’s usually nice and I’m ruining its life.
2. No one would doubt that a bear attack happened.

  1. A bear sees me as just another living being.
    Some other sad but true reasons include:
  • If I survive a bear attack, I won’t see the bear at family gatherings.
  • The bear didn't pretend to be my friend first.
  • A bear wouldn’t record the attack and show it to others.
    This topic has caused a lot of debate. Many men are upset by these choices, but their reactions often show why women feel safer choosing the bear. When women are asked to choose between a man and a bear, 9 out of 10 pick the bear. This is a big deal because women usually have different tastes and opinions on things like hair color, makeup, or Taylor Swift. But here, most agree instantly on the bear.
    Even though a bear might take our life, we understand that there are worse things than dying. A bear will either harm us or ignore us.
    Looking at the numbers, women are actually safer with bears than men. In the last four years, 7 women lost their lives to bears, and 15 survived attacks. If you compare that to the number of women hurt by men, it's clear.
    We are safer with the BEAR. Sorry, not sorry.

It is sad that women have lost confidence in being in the presence of a strange man.
A stranger is only a stranger until they become a friend. I remember hearing that as a young girl. It made sense to me at the time, I felt safe then, not so much anymore. 😟

Def choosing the bear! In fact when I had 3 large dogs and was younger I walked with them everywhere...now with one small one I choose our paths carefully, as there are many homeless men living in the woods because they do not want to be forced to take their meds...and it is always men, even homeless women live in doorways and public places like parks and so forth, the woods aren't safe for them either.

Very true! Some of these men on social media are making a mockery about this subject but just shows who they exactly are and solidifying why we are safer with a bear.

Clueless assholes all!!!!

So true! I've met a strange bear in the woods, and it left me alone. A strange man, not so much. Really.
