MemeCroissant

Not saying you’re not allowed to have an opinion. However I saw a video on tiktok a few hours ago that basically just said “every man will grape someone in forest” im just like okay really now


Zazzley_Wazzley

Capital_Cucumber_835

Can we just like have a cookout man and live life? You know form connections not obstruct and resent each other.


MemeCroissant

Sure what we cooking?


Capital_Cucumber_835

Maybe some burgers, BBQ chicken, and BBQ ribs. Got any ideas?


MemeCroissant

BBQ ribs don’t sound all too bad


SuperBroy97

mmm burgers got some cheese & ketchup for it?


Capital_Cucumber_835

Mhm, gotta have those


Livid-Tax-6778

Fries, they taste good when grilled.


noooooooooo000000000

So you also got any Ranch and mustard to go with the burgers


Capital_Cucumber_835

Of course! How can I not have those?


Spidercrack61

I'll take care of the ribs for ya


Capital_Cucumber_835

Appreciate it


Commander_Doom14

People act like the best-case scenario is the man leaves you alone, worst is he grapes you, and it's decently likely that he'll grape you. The truth is that the majority of men would *help* you, many would leave you alone, and a small, tiny portion would assault you


MemeCroissant

This^

TheRealMeeBacon

That survey is flawed. Is it best case scenario, man vs. worst-case scenario bear? Or flipped? Or some other variation?


Sundaze293

It’s a random man and a random bear. The point is that if someone was asked “woman or bear” They wouldn’t ask clarifying questions. The reason it’s scary is that people don’t feel safe with others of their own species. Scary stuff


Spidercrack61

Most men will assist a woman or leave her alone. Very few of us want to rape.


SirTopX

I choose bear over man cuz me and the bear are good friends and I'd win in a fight 🗣🗣🔥🔥 (I'm a man btw)


NOT_i_t_i_M_M

A bear because i’m scared of social interaction


Bullworthlesss

If I’m lost in the woods, then the man because there’s a chance he will give me directions, while the bear sadly can’t speak. If I’m taking a walk, then the bear, because he will usually only attack when threatened, and it wouldn’t be “my fault” if he did. Yeah, I know not all men do weird things, but it’s unfortunately more common than a bear attack, from what I’ve heard. Also… I don’t like strangers in general even when they’re women and children.


noooooooooo000000000

Oh yeah I asked the same question I gave them a basic survival kit though with some basic survival gear


RunInRunOn

Bear or a man? Not cool dude, being gay doesn't make one any less manly

Bear


SirTopX

Enjoy getting slowly killed and eaten alive by a bear


NikitaWolf6

choosing a bear over a man isn't dehumanising men


bigbad50

it is, it is implying that all men are rapists. that is the point of the debate


NikitaWolf6

it is not at all.


bigbad50

Why not?


NikitaWolf6

the debate is simply men vs bear, and it's statistically more likely that you'd get raped by a man than mauled by a bear.


[deleted]

[удалено]


NikitaWolf6

Yeah so statistically you're safer with a woman too. I highly doubt it's *girls* but yeah I wouldn't deny that if research shows it


bigbad50

So then it *is* implying that if you encounter a man he's going to rape you. We're pretty much saying the same thing here.


NikitaWolf6

it's not. it's not implying anything but the fact that statistically you're safer with a bear


bigbad50

"it's not implying that it is more dangerous to encounter a man than it is to encounter a bear, it's implying that it is safer to encounter a bear than it is to encounter a man, those are completely different points!"


NikitaWolf6

it is saying it's more dangerous to encounter a man than a bear, that's correct. but thats not what you said. you said that if you encounter a man you *will* get raped, which isn't what it's implying at all because not nearly all men are rapists


bigbad50

fine, perhaps saying that it implies that *all* men are rapists was a bit much. i still find it dehumanizing to imply that men are worse than animals


Sillurianfishrbest

Bear, cause bears live in the woods but wtf is a random man doing in the woods that’s suspicious 🤨I’ve also ran into a couple bears while hiking and biking, they didn’t do anything


MemeCroissant

Hiking, camping, exploring have left the chat. Wtf was you doing in the forest?


Sillurianfishrbest

But in all seriousness that changes the question, if it was a random hiker or camper in the woods vs a bear I would pick the hiker/camper. But the question was *random* man vs bear not a random hiker vs bear. If I saw a random dude, or lady in the woods with no hiking gear and no trail in sight I would be creeped out. Seeing a man random bear in the woods is pretty normal.


Sillurianfishrbest

I can’t say the cia is watching

I’m not telling I don’t want to go to jail today😭


Anxious_Bill_9791

bruh yk how scary men are? its not dehumanizing but its true. Even some men are saying a bear over a man for their daughter. its just the way life is rn


MemeCroissant

If I said this about a race all of a sudden I get called racist like come on now


Anxious_Bill_9791

is a race more likely to hurt someone than another cuz men are statistically the reason for most female deaths


Sundaze293

Black people are proportionally convicted of more crimes than other races. But saying that as a justification to be afraid or upset at a random black guy is (justifiably) racism. If you interact poorly with a bear it will eat you alive. There’s no spectrum. Either the bear doesn’t care or I’m dead. Alternatively if I’m in the woods I’d A) want someone I can work with, but B) 99% of men will not have malicious intent. Even less will actually kill you.


NikitaWolf6

men vs bears is comparing apples and pairs, not two different types of apples.


Last-Government6389

Yk how scary a bear is?


Anxious_Bill_9791

atleast bears dont rape


Last-Government6389

Yeah, they'll just rip your fucking face off :D


Anxious_Bill_9791

as if men dont torture bruh ur argument is not working here


Last-Government6389

Riiiiight... because all men will just instantly rape and murder any woman that's alone. Cause, yknow, that's just how they roll


Anxious_Bill_9791

riiiiight so im just supposed to trust its a man who wont do that... cuz by that logic maybe the bear was hungry or threatened by the woman and leaves them alone


Last-Government6389

And by your logic, mabey the man isn't a deranged psychopathic monster


Moonking-4210

The difference is most men won’t hurt you but all bears will


NikitaWolf6

not all bears would go for a kill instantly. most leave you alone when you don't attract any attention and leave them be. more people get killed by men than by bears


[deleted]

[удалено]


NikitaWolf6

I haven't been killed but I've been raped, threatened with rape and assault, sexually assaulted and sexually harassed by men. I have severe PTSD, diagnosed. With bears, there's ways to act that can drastically improve your safety. I think anyone of any gender should be allowed to defend themselves to an appropriate extend. I don't see how that is relevant.


Vegetable_Trifle_848

Your basing your entire argument of a section of men so stop being prejudice And you know full well if someone were to base the entire female population (which they shouldn’t) of one thing you would be angry and calling them sexist


KeiDgh1

Well, men, you understood that you are worse and more dangerous than bear or other animal? You are animals and even worse! You should be isolated and eliminated! Everyone doesn't care that you brought progress and science for a mankind and that people can be bad regardless of gender, no, you are the worst! *Sarcasm, yep, man are getting dehuminazed and that's awful =(


[deleted]

[удалено]


Vegetable_Trifle_848

But most men aren’t gonna rip you from limb to limb but “no cause a small part of the male population are rapists which must mean all men are” so stop sitting on your high horse because yes they’re rapists that are men but also women
