Why White American Men Chose The Bear
In mid-2024, for a couple of weeks, the biggest question on social media was whether women were better off alone in the woods with a randomly selected man or a full-sized adult bear.
Most women chose the bear.
And immediately, predictably, several of those randomly selected men lost their minds.
After all, these were sensitive, decent, “high-value” men, they paid for dates and dutifully opened car doors, if they encountered a woman alone in the woods, they’d probably doff their cap or offer directions or maybe sniff and taste her hair.
So where did these irrational, hysterical man-haters get off choosing an animal famous for its teeth and claws and…uh, avoiding human contact whenever possible?
Thankfully, these very smart men didn’t waste their time listening to women’s stories about attempted abductions and stalking and abuse, they didn’t examine their behaviour or ask themselves if they were missing something, they didn’t try to understand why women were taking their chances with a bear.
After all, these guys already knew how women should have answered. It’s not their problem if women haven’t figured it out.
