I understand why women pick the bear, but I also understand why men are insulted. It's not that hard to empathetic is it?
Maybe I'm wrong.
Even as a dude I'd rather pick the bear over any human. Bears are somewhat predictable humans not so much
Also they can hit me up with some coke
Yeah I probably would too. I mean, "Man is the real monster!" is an old trope for a reason.
What's troubling is I wouldn't necessarily feel the same about a random (unarmed) woman in the forest and I suppose that's the root of the feels here.
But that probably has something to do with my biases/preconceived ideas of gender as well if I'm being honest with myself. Yikes this bear thing is deeper than it seems at first lol.
If I was in the middle of a large and dense forest and saw a random woman, I'd assume she was either a witch or it was a trap
