It's so bizarre to me that people are taking this so personally. Usually I don't associate myself personally with the concept of "random asshole" and tend to have a pretty poor opinion of said random asshole.

People actually taking a probability and risk assessment statement as if it's talking about them.

I read her post some days ago and thought "she got some kinky humor".

Now I think "She has no humor at all and was dead serious".

I'm a guy and I'd probably pick a bear over a random person. At least with a bear I know it's not safe. A person? Could be useful, could be aggressive and follow me, etc. I know enough to know that I'd have no idea if the person was telling the truth about anything survival related.

I'm a man, but can I still pick bear? I don't really like being around strange people.

what kinda bear we talking? Black bear, grizzly bear, teddy bear, a large anthropomorphic bear? I mean come on we need something to work with here.

Frankly, i'd rather be out in the woods alone, but that's because i don't like people.

Honestly I'd rather have the man. I would stand a chance against him. Can't say the same about a bear.

Do not let the 1% divide the sexes.

Solidarity amongst all human beings, and whatever gender they may be.

That said, people who are a smaller stature deserve the ability to defend themselves from other larger individuals. I wonder how the handmaids tale would have gone if all the women had AK-47s?

A gay bear would indeed be the safer choice

You know what? If I’m out in the woods alone I’m probably having some me time and I don’t want any women around anyway. Go hang out with the bear.

Yes keep fighting on twitter while the ruling class take away your rights.

This entire conversation is ridiculous from start to finish.

Depends on the bear
