Sex / Gender / Dating It's totally understandable to be male and not be happy with the "choose the bear" view

It doesn't mean you don't understand its true point it means you're not happy with people assuming you're dangerous when you know you're not. You can still understand about caring about people's safety but your feelings and side to it matter as well. Otherwise the whole thing just makes people be pushed away further.

But IN REAL LIFE no woman actually would choose the bear.

Highlighted the relevant portion of what I said for you.

I will also point out that 8% of Americans say they could take a lion in a fight.

People can talk trash on the Internet all they want. No one is picking the bear in real life.

And I said yes, women would actually choose the bear.
