Most MEN would probably choose bear as well, we're that tired of your shit.

This comic is from 2023, it's completely unrelated to the man or bear question.

I'm out of the loop what is this question

If you are a woman, and found yourself in the woods, would you feel safer with a man or a bear?

Is this some kind of "men are dangerous animals" thing?

It's basically the perfect rage-bait question, because everyone immediately has an answer based on their emotions and assumes everyone else interpreted the core question the same way.

For some reason, I'm reading the "your" here as gendered. Which is weird, because I like to ask my (not terminally online) boyfriend his opinion of online drama, and when I explained to him that women were saying they'd choose a bear over a strange man, he said, "That's the obvious choice. Everyone should chose the bear over a stranger. People are awful."

Gendering it was probably unnecessary. If you made the question "would you rather meet a bear in the woods, or a stranger," most people would say the bear.

Because people are terrible.

The way it was explained to me was that regardless of gender, if you see someone in the woods, there might be other people nearby and they might pose a serious threat to you. Bears don't really gang up on people, so you should be okay if you keep your distance.

I don't know whether or not I agree with that risk assessment, but I can see that it comes from a logical standpoint.

Sometimes I think it would be nice to do a controlled coma but I don't want to end up like peterson

"People say he fried his brain one day from going into a drug induced coma. Course, couldn't have been too smart to do that in the first place".

Plot twist: two other bears are also humans in bear suites.
