A viral debate that spread through social media asks women a weird question: “Would you rather be stuck in the woods with a bear or a man?” One of the first of these viral videos posed the question to random women on the street, and the overwhelming answer was “bear.”

Some of us might find the responses surprising, though Forbes provided insight as to why so many women feel this way: “Many women participating in a new viral debate on TikTok say they would rather be alone with a bear than a man in the woods, answering a hypothetical question that is leading many women to open up about negative experiences they have had with men, including domestic violence and sexual assault.”

Countless women flooded TikTok and other platforms with their personal experiences of being verbally or physically harmed by a man, and the general consensus was essentially that the behavior of a wild animal is easier to predict than the potentially evil intentions that lurk in the heart of a random man.

While there might be some truth to that, what was also highlighted was that most women seem to have developed an automatic response toward men — i.e., when asked about a scenario involving the opposite sex, it means danger for them.

No one wants to minimize the trauma that women have dealt with in their interactions with men, but the programming that has them all too ready to take any opportunity to disparage men should raise its own red flags.

Almost all of these women chose the bear, although statistically it is likely that almost all of them have at some point — likely recently — met a man they didn’t know for a date or invited a man they weren’t well acquainted with over to their apartment. At a minimum, they surely shared an office, elevator, sidewalk, park bench, or restaurant with a man. Women interact with men hundreds of times per day, often without the protection or even knowledge of others, and they emerge from all of it unbothered and definitely unharmed.

There is also obvious irony in that most of the women who chose the bear are the same women who would argue tooth and nail for random men to be able to share private spaces with them and even with defenseless young girls. Apparently, the feminine attire and pronouns would remove the threat they have said is inherent in men.

Even USA Today owned liberal women on this position (though I’m sure it didn’t mean to, and I’m sure it’ll be called out for its “transphobic” statement). USA Today’s assessment of the survey? “The hypothetical has caused some tension, with some women arguing that men will never truly understand what it’s like to be a woman or the inherent dangers at play.”

Insert every single argument against Joe Biden’s recent abolition of Title IX. But I digress.

Many women also dismiss the concept of comparing the number of bear attacks against people to the number of attacks against women by men as irrelevant. However, the reality of the situation is simply inconvenient to the feminist narrative because they’d rather rail against “the patriarchy.”

As a columnist for a local Texas paper put it: “The set of encounters with a bear is vastly smaller than that of encounters with unknown men alone. I imagine it would have to be something like 1 to 10 million throughout history, but who knows.”

If women could somehow compare the dangers of bears versus the dangers of men to women, with both exhibiting their natural behavior in their natural environment, my guess is that the number of bear attacks would skyrocket — along with the number of women complaining that the men didn’t step in to protect them.

The question posed to these women simply gave them an opportunity to criticize men — something feminism has taught them to do at every turn. And based on the poison that has melted too many brains amongst today’s women, the creature that we should really be concerned about is the bear.
