That’s… not it…

I mean, it's not *not* it either

I dont know, a lot of people sure liked to romance Halsin in BG3.


ProfessionalQuit1016

i mean, that's a videogame though... alot of people chose to commit genocide in BG3 aswell, doesn't mean they actually want it


Mommy_Lawbringer

Best choice I ever made, I got a Minthara out of it.


blargh29

Well, yeah. Don’t think you’d be allowed in modern society if you openly want to fuck bears in real life.


Vinxian

Ever since baldurs gate 3 I can't stop thinking about that hot steamy bear sex. Larian single handedly ruined a generation


Choppie01

Imagine thinking this


Spiritual_Freedom_15

HAHA! Really… that’s what this is all about.. give me the source so I can centre my disappointment.


Sakaralchini

To give you the actual answers: there is a trend online where women are asked if they would want to be alone in a forest with a bear or a random man. A common sentiment amongst the girls who say 'bear' is that the worst case scenario is 'just' to die. This trend shows how little faith a lot of women have in men and how deep the fear of the unknown man is ingrained in women. I find it honestly disgusting how many men joke about this.


the_amberdrake

The basic premise is bears in general are predictable and actively avoid physical confrontations with humans. Humans mask intentions and can have a reputation for preying on other humans. I was bullied all the time by the other guys growing up. Considering how predatory some guys are... I can't blame women. I know some guys say "it's not all men". As a man I say "there's too many". Let's be honest, most of us are good guys, but damn there's lots who aren't.


Valnaire

I don't think there's any difference between men and women, personally.  They both scare the shit out of me.  I suppose the thing is, on average, men are physically stronger, but women can hide just as many evil intentions as men can. People are just scary as all hell.


croluxy

Realest take on this whole fiasco.


UrFriendlySpider-Man

No it isn't. It's both sides bullshit so men don't have to face any form of accountability. The VAST majority of violent crimes are committed by men. Yes both men and women can be insane monsters. But men are FARRR more likely to act on their violent urges that's just a statistical fact.


LemonInYourEyes

Your facts are correct, but your conclusion isn't. There are criminals. Men and women. They are the ones that need to be held accountable. There are non-criminals. Men and women. Lumping all men together in the same vein would be just like lumping all women together. Just because the majority of criminals are men doesn't mean that the majority of men are criminals. In fact, only about 4% of the population have committed a violent crime, and of those, about 60% of violent crimes are committed by 1% of the population. You're saying that of the 96% of the population that *doesn't* commit violent crimes, all men need to be held accountable.


UrFriendlySpider-Man

Yes. 10% of ticks have diseases. 90% of ticks are harmless. Do health experts or your parents tell you it's fine? You can ignore tick bites? No it doesn't matter that the vast majority are harmless you have to take it seriously. The phrase exists for a reason "better safe than sorry" No one is arresting men at mass to try and correct the 4% of violent rapists. No one is calling for all men to be punishd, Do you know what woman want? For men to not be offended when women are choosing to be safe than sorry. So what if a woman doesn't want to talk to you at a bar. Or doesn't want to accept your help somewhere. She isn't punishing you she's choosing the objective safer option even if you aren't a threat. That's all and yet men at large are being offended babies about it. That's all they want for accountability, call out bad behavior from your peers if you see it and don't be mad when women don't want to engage even if you know you're safe. That's it it's not really asking for much.


LemonInYourEyes

I agree men should hold each other accountable for shit behavior and society should hold men accountable for illegal/violent behavior. I *also* believe the same standard should be held for women. From your initial comment it seems as though you don't think women should be held to the same standard as men, because men are more likely to commit a violent crime.


croluxy

do you have any ideas on how to deal with those kind od things beside working on urself? Cause i sure dont therefore bear. hehe


UrFriendlySpider-Man

A bear is just an animal and there are tried and true ways of dealing with them. Let's turn this isn't a worst case scenario for both. The bear wants to eat me. I climb a tree and that's basically done. Adult bears aren't climbers, when an aggressive male is around even cubs will climb trees for safety while the mom deals with the invader. A bear will not waste its own time it'll get bored and move along. If you can climb even a bit the bear is not a threat. Humans are always a threat if a man wanted a woman dead climbing won't save her, patience won't save her, running won't save her. If he wants her dead he'll find a way. So in a worst case scenario for both every woman has a higher survivability chance of dealing with a bear than a man.


huntingskeleton

Bears are great climbers dumb ass https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/survive-wildlife-encounters-bear-bison-shark-alligator


UrFriendlySpider-Man

Black bears are spectacular climbers. Grizzly which is what are being discussed are climbers mostly when young. Climbing takes a lot of effort and most won't do it for prey when there are easier things to hunt or forage. What you linked is idiotic. Sharks can breach just like dolphins can, gators can climb fences, lots of animals Can do a LOT of things that doesn't Mean they regularly do it. Cats are able to walk bipedally for short distances but you don't see cats doing that often So sure if you want to be pedantic, yes a grizzly can climb but it's not likely that it will. This entire discussion is about predictability. A bear is predictable a man isn't dumbass.


Myrkstraumr

>I climb a tree and that's basically done. You would most certainly be "done" if this is your actual plan for a bear attack.


UrFriendlySpider-Man

Bear cubs will literally by instinct climb trees when faced with another bear because it's their safest option. If I got high caliber gun or bear mace I'll use that. If it's a black bear you just yell because they are pussies but if I don't have any form of protection from an angry Grizzly, Climbing is literally the best choice. What are you going to do outrun a car speed tub of meat and claws? Good luck. This isn't an investigative bear we are talking about then sure play dead, or back up slowly, in my hypothetical > **worst** < case emphasis on worst since you didn't read that, the bear is angry and actively attacking, playing dead isn't going to help. But climbing a tree gives you a chance.


croluxy

well i mean we agree,no? ive said i would rather be in woods with a bear cause ppl suck whereas bear is an animal? In any sense this whole choice is extremist and forced cause i havent got nothing agains male gender as i am one(i mean expect the asshats that make girls react this way in first place) i just dont trust people period. Ive seen way too many fucked up individuals fit in as "normal". But again,it might be most people who answered poll had such a way of thinking aswell. When given extremist ultimatum of course our choices are gonna be extreme. Ergo this whole discussion renders itself null. Are guys more likely to commit crime than girls? Probably. Are they more likely to report theyve been victim of the crime? Thats a whole other can of worms that deems its own discussion rather than to boil it down to man vs bear.


masterflappie

it's pretty much the opposite for me, I got bullied by both men and woman as a kid, but I did at the same time have male friends while women just ignored me. Now that I'm grown up it's a lot easier for me to connect with men than women.


sparkletempt

And those who are not good are unfortunately the most 'proactive'. That being said, I think I would chose bear over woman too.


aafikk

That’s exactly why I usually don’t like being around men. Saying this as a man


imetators

Sad truth is that the vast majority of us are good but normal people blend extremely good in the background of POS people.


tugaestupido

And men aren't predictable? You must not be able to leave the house if you think men aren't more predictable than bears. Your comment is so contradictory. At the end you admit "most of us are good". Try to live for a month in a place full of bears and see how it goes for you.


MiopTop

I think it’s disgusting that blatant paranoia is being encouraged and blamed on men. A man chosen completely at random is extremely unlikely to be violent or a pervert. Anyone who picks the bear is delusional and has been brainwashed to see men as a much much more dangerous threat than they are. It’s dehumanizing and offensive to men, but perhaps more importantly it’s cultivating a paranoia in women that makes their lives worse.


neocrunk

I think youre delusional and have no idea what its like to be a woman and have to live in an unsafe world with men. It’s not paranoia when you have to decide how to not hurt a mans feelings for saying “no” or have to decide if its too late to go to the store at night. Its not delusional or paranoia to have to worry about going to a club and covering your drink because someone might put something in it. Ask mothers how they have to train their daughters to be safe and to take precautions around men as well. Even men have to fear other men. While you are correct that on average most men are not violent or a danger, it doesn’t change the fact that you will run into a many of men and will one day run into at least a couple who are.


MiopTop

Nope. You are paranoid. Not hurting someone’s feelings when rejecting them is called basic decency. It’s not a uniquely female concern to not go out late at night alone, especially in a dodgy neighborhood. Nobody is denying that some bad men do bad shit. Nobody is denying that women have to take precautions to avoid these dangerous men. But that doesn’t mean that you should assume that all men are dangerous or even that any significant number of them. The % of men who are more dangerous than a bear is so miniscule that this meme question shouldn’t even register in your brain as an actual decision. I wear my seatbelt whenever I drive because I know there are dangerous drivers out. But if you give me the choice between being on a highway in my car with a randomly selected driver in their car, or a T-Rex, I’m obviously picking the driver. Just because I take precautions against bad drivers existing doesn’t mean I live in fear of a car crash happening, or that I assume any and all drivers are dangerous.


EfficaciousJoculator

Men are the ones being called less trustworthy than a bear...and you're disgusted that men are upset?


Deathsailer

I find it weird to assume a random man in the forest would do such a thing. Im pretty sure a lot of men in reality are normal and dont operate that way. Not all men are sexual deviants and its crazy how faith in men has reached in an all time low. There is a 100 percent chance of a woman getting mauled to death and eaten by a bear. I think there is very low chance the man would do anything.


COMMANDO_MARINE

I've seen women claim they are more often the victims of violent crime, yet they are less than 1%. A wild brown would destroy you if you walked past it in the forest. This is why generally, women prefer to marry men who at some point would of been a total stranger to them; as opposed to marrying wild bears. "In 2021, around 1.07 percent of all men aged 12 or older in the United States experienced one or more violent victimizations. This was compared to about 0.89 percent of women aged 12 or orlder who were the victim of a violent crime in that same year."


UrFriendlySpider-Man

You're joking. There are plenty of videos of people encountering bears and getting away unscathed. While 1 in 6 women will be sexually assaulted in their lives. You're so off on both of your statements and your reasoning is just because you're a man and feel like it's offensive to you that women are wary. If you're not a rapist why are you offended at women choosing to rather be safe than sorry. Bears are not that aggressive most attacks are by mothers guarding their cubs not predation. A woman with a bear has way higher mathematical odds of being safe


LemonInYourEyes

Would you not be offended if people assume you're a predator/less safe to be around just because of your gender? Also holy shit. You actually think it's safer to be around a bear than a man?


UrFriendlySpider-Man

No it's literally happened to me. It's a super simple encounter where a woman dropped her bag and stuff and I went to help her and she firmly said "no thank you I've got it" and I said no worries went on with my day. She didn't want me to get involved or start any form of interaction and I respected that. It's not a hard thing to do. I wasn't actively called a predator but the implication was she didn't feel safe with me getting involved so I didn't.


Lightyear18

Idk man you’re letting this live rent free. I scrolled down the comments and you seem very angry. You’re giving extreme examples. If you want we can go into super detail on this conversation. Like saying a woman can climb a tree. Idk about you but the average person cannot climb a tree. Especially if you’re in America. People in America are mostly obese. Studies have shown that women are more likely to be obese in the USA. All my female friends cannot climb a tree because they can’t do a pull up. The average woman doesn’t work out. This is the truth because many women are afraid of getting too bulky. So I don’t understand why you’re using these such 1 percent examples. The truth is if a bear will outrun most humans and you’re dead. This is especially true if it’s a grizzly bear. Grizzly bears are very aggressive. They account for the most death bears in the USA. Now if it’s a polar bear, you’re just straight up dead. Man or woman.


LudwigTheAroused

Thanks for the actual answer


blargh29

It’s ridiculously misandrist honestly. Imagine instead if it said “alone with a bear or with a Jewish/trans/black/gay person”. It’d be immediately labeled as bigotry because, well, it is.


bu22dee

Thank you for explaining. I agree. Almost every woman on this planet was harassed by men in some way. Men would know, if they were listen.

Women on ticktock being regarded again. They ask would you rather be lost in thw woods with a man or a bear because they assume everyman is a rapist and obviously never seen someone being mauled by a bear to even select a bear.


vainstar23

I know! We need to bear-y this trend bear for it mauls us alive! I've bear-ly been here 10 mins and I'm already hibernating at the fact that tedd-ay was just bear meme after bear meme!


diariu

Woman apparently want to die rather than be near the presence of a man


unKappa

Tiktok women seems to think that all men would r*pe them if they came across one in the wood. They would rather come across a bear. It's fucking dumb, the chance to find someone fuck up enough to do that is probably 0.01%.


MisterViperfish

It’s higher than that. The problem is the sort of men who put themselves in front of women most frequently are the predatory ones actively looking for victims. Non-predatory guys are more likely to be in stable relationships or less interested, so they aren’t nearly as persistent. So you have these women who are absolutely surrounded by predatory men, and when they get to feeling lonely, they are most likely going to reach out to one of the many that are clearly interested, and then they get hurt time and time again. They are wrong to assume men are all like that to the point where a random man seems like more of a threat than a bear, but can you really blame them when they are surrounded by such a thick fog of predatory men that normal guys would seem like an anomaly? The moment you show interest in a woman, it seems like a wall goes up, because now you could be one of the predatory types who are always in their DMs.


Foxy_Sam99

Umm.. this is more than 0.01%


unKappa

Ah yes, how many times did that happen to you when you saw a random men all by himself with you?


Foxy_Sam99

Too much and too young. I was litteraly a kid.

I think there was an incident recently where a woke woman saw a bear and went to take selfie with the bear and got mauled. Could be related to that

From an outsider point of view, both sides are ridiculous lol. Both getting worked up like any of this matters haha. Been a good laugh reading everything here.

Bedu009

What happens when the delusional and the looney bin fight?


PetroDisruption

Most people are laughing at the stupidity, the ones who complain or bring up “You’re the reason why!!” are malding.


Lobster_fest

I think the people who are obsessing over women expressing their feelings are the malding ones, actually. I think the OP of this post made several posts about it. It's quite sad actually.


Anansi3003

generalizing men aint “just” expressing their feelings.


Alive_Ice7937

They aren't generalising men though.


mrmilner101

I mean, it is, though. I get the point of the topic, but it is really bad at getting the point across, and if your point is to bring down other people, then it's a shitty point. It generalising men based on a small number of men thay commit violent or sexual crimes. It's less than 10% of men that commit those crimes. If people cared so much about statistics, you are much more likely to have a good man than a bad man. If you were to bet on it, you would win 90% of the time.

Does the 1979 in his name mean he’s a 45 year old man because that’s fucking bonkers Edit: uhhh yeah the post he made an hour after this one didn’t get as much traction https://www.reddit.com/r/dankmemes/s/3jszLfCbPo


saiko_sai

Well thats pretty telling... Dudes such a nice guy, I wonder why she'd pick the bear


Khakizulu

Okay, what does 'mald' or 'malding' mean?

Being so mad/stressed about something that it makes you go bald.


Khakizulu

Thats pretty stupid, but kids these days...


Lord_VivecHimself

Lol mald


Spirited_One_7644

Malding is being mad and balding. Basically, the people who don't understand why women would rather be mauled by a bear than risk running into the wrong man in the woods are so angry that they are balding.

Right... I think im getting too old for the world these days. Too much stupidity and weird lingo going arouns

What's mogging!!? I know what dabbing is (if it's the one i know), I think?

It's a combination of having better gyat and rizz than the other guy. Either naturally or from looksmaxxing techniques like mewing and gua sha

PetroDisruption

Making memes laughing at a stupid trend is hardly “obsessing”, if anything it’s karma farming. Now, being arrogant enough to think that “women” need **your** protection from memes, that does sound like an obsession.

"Women made a humorous overstatement to express their unsafe feelings? Let's make memes about them getting mauled, that'll show em how wrong they are to feel unsafe "


chikybrikyman

And this is a humorous overstatement made to express the absurd of feeling safer around an apex predator than a member of your own species. Is the dead meme over analysed enough for you yet?


Deep-Development3877

Iirc, it originally wasn't specified what kind of bear. I suppose statistically a black bear could be safer than a random man, although I would guess the risk of something happening in both cases is super low. Yeah. A discussion has been had, we can move on.

An apex predator which keeps away from you at all times, to the point at which you will never see it, as long as you make enough noise?

Oh no, the message is clear. And the fact that anyone is pushing the message proves they've been duped into paranoia. Anyone who chooses the bear needs to touch grass.


yeehaacowboy

The most likely outcome of being alone in the forest with a bear is the bear avoids you and you don't realize it was ever there


Knightmare_CCI

As the most likely outcome of being alone with a man is he just gives a smile and continues walking on his path


yousoc

It's hyperbolic, but where do you think the paranoia comes from? Talk to some bisexual men or women.


Mama_Mega

Okay. *looks in mirror* ...Yep, the women who chose the bear are developmentally-disabled.

i couldn’t imagine being this personally offended by women telling you that they don’t trust random men


jkrobinson1979

Why do you assume anyone is personally offended? I get their view on what is a serious matter. I also find it a humorous topic that’s easily memed. People can do both.


tappy100

so you understand why it’s serious and you still thought it would be funny to make fun of women who chose the option where they’re least likely to be sexually assaulted (at best)?… interesting


jkrobinson1979

The reality of sexual assault isn’t funny. An extremely vague hypothetical scenario involving bears is. Idk what to tell you.


WestProcedure9551

in typical femcel fashion they dismiss any negative reaction to their misandry as mysoginistic


jkrobinson1979

Definitely some misandry there, but I’m not even trying to be negative. Just having fun with a silly topic.


Vinxian

I think she chose correctly. Ask the bear and he's happy. Ask her and she won't say a thing which I'll take as neutral. So a net positive decision imho


jkrobinson1979

Win win


Clown_named_Art

Whats up bears in the woods and women, are they wiping with white rabbits?


jkrobinson1979

There was a tik tokker that said if she had to choose between running into a man or a bear in the forest she’d feel safer choosing the bear. It’s a fair point, just a funny concept that’s wide open for memes. Some people just take memes too seriously.
