not all bears

it's been a few years, time to rehash not all men -> yes all women

Does pepper spray help vs bears?

Women: I feel unsafe

Neckbeards online: This is exactly why the suicide rate for men is so high! (Note: it’s not.)

Imma be honest picking the bear feels like True Crime Brain, unless your point is only “Bears aren’t dangerous and it would be cool to see one”

It is the exact same as the white women who have told me they felt afraid for their lives and don’t feel safe in this city because homeless man talked to them in the park once (to be clear this is not an exaggeration, this is a story one of my friends has told me about “almost” getting attacked walking through the park, it was just a homeless man spoke to her once and then walked on the same path for a few minutes)

If I’m walking through the woods and I come across a man, I assume he’s in the woods for the exact same reason I am. Are y’all panicking every time you pass another hiker going the opposite direction?

Bears aren’t scary, but neither are people and if you get scared upon seeing a random guy you need to go to therapy and to stop listening to My Favorite Murder

What if the man you run into is also a bear?

Well known path: man; assume he’s just another hiker

Obscure/empty path: bear; he will likely leave me alone if I leave him alone
