Defeating the bear

Unfortunately this has already been tried and feminists have said that they would avoid men regardless of their race.

You'll probably get the whole 'you're missing the point' argument again. :/

Genuine question: If answering logically is 'missing the point' , then what IS the point?

That women will choose on the option that they've been conditioned to feel rather than what makes logical sense to be far less dangerous?

That conclusion doesn't sit well with me.

The man vs bear comparison is just another fear monger tactic,theres nothing outstanding about it,feminists have used paranoic scenarios similar to this one to generalize all males as sex offenders or potential sex offenders for decades.

The idea that all men are potential threats is absurd and deeply insulting. It's a manipulative tactic that undermines trust between people and shifts focus away from actual solutions to problems. Instead of addressing real-world issues in a nuanced way, these fear-based narratives are used to divide women from men and demonize men.

The hypocrisy is glaring when it comes to acknowledging the full scope of harm within society. Women are just as capable of threatening, abusing, and assaulting other women, yet that reality is conveniently ignored because it doesn't fit the "all men are dangerous" narrative.

By cherry-picking data and ignoring female-on-female violence, these narratives push an agenda that demonizes men while excusing or minimizing the wrongdoings of women.

As a black man, as much as I hate it we black men are part of the problem. That doesn’t mean innocent black men should die though the same way not every woman should be accused of lying but I digress.

Doesn’t make sense to laugh at bfs who think they can take on a bear and then say this. It also doesn’t make sense to abandon the rhetoric completely when it’s convenient because you overheard a man say he’s not gonna help a woman since she chose the bear. Apparently men all of a sudden aren’t dangerous when they need help. Doesn’t seem to add up.

If you’re a black man and you hear someone say this, just tell them to go further and add “black” in front of it. After all…80% of the crime,right?

By cherry-picking data and ignoring female-on-female violence, these narratives become less about genuine safety and more about pushing an agenda that demonizes men while excusing or minimizing the wrongdoings of women. It's disingenuous and does nothing to address the actual complexities of these issues. Accountability should apply equally, no matter the gender.
