You're changing the hypothetical into something it's not. "Odds of success" are a weird thing to think about when it's just a walk in the woods.

The scenario is you are lost in the woods and you either have to choose between a wild bear, or a random man.

Many types of bears won't run away, they will actively attack you. Some will run, but many will simply tear you limb from limb just cuz.

I haven't seen a version that says lost in the woods, just alone. Either way though, you can see it as saying they'd take a chance of being mauled over a chance of being raped.

And how would you react to if a TERF posted the same thing but changed it to a trans woman instead of a man?

Still a woman posting about her fear of being raped.

But now you maybe see how fucking awful ot sounds, right? How it makes you sound super bigoted, perhaps?
