Nobody, and I do mean NOBODY cares about bears. Everyone knows they can and will kill you.

But that's the upside: an understood and agreed danger.

Men can and will kill men and women, in great numbers every year. And people choose to ignore that.

Like, I don't know, derailing conversations to talk about bears.

    Nobody has claimed that bears aren't dangerous.

    The fact is: despite the fact that everyone knows bears are dangerous, many women when asked say they would rather encounter a bear than a man. That isn't saying they don't think bears are dengerous, it speaks volumes about their regular encounters with men.

    Saying "um acksully bears are very dangerous" is ignoring the point to have an argument that no one is actually arguing against.
