This actually provides we here in the Post-Industrial US immense cause for celebration. All of our lives(Regardless of gender)are so cushy, we have the luxury of devoting days and weeks to mulling over an extremely far fetched hypothetical, the likes of which no one who isn’t living in rural Alaska will likely encounter

    Not really… it only says something about the internet, where a recorded conversation can include everyone talking at once and it can last as long as 1 person is still willing to respond to it (even if years pass).

    Also I’m sure there’s some fallacy (or more) here, as it’s very likely there have been some truly ridiculous conversations in survival situations that we would never have any chance of finding out about (because of death or simply because of privacy). That and it’s a pretty human thing for mismatch for a lot of different reasons, so using that as evidence for how great things are going (or even how well people are or aren’t handling things) doesn’t really work.

    EDIT: Or pulling back… you’re allowed to have more than one problem at once, including ones of statistics. I mean I do find this one tiring yet I do understand the point.

      Let’s hope everyone stops responding to the bear hypothesis, and refocuses on Florence Pugh’s nude scenes in Oppenheimer, fairly soon

    women are expressing that they would rather risk death than risk SA, and you are refusing to listen. this kind of post does not belong here.

      Anyone of either gender who really believes that getting dismembered alive is PREFERABLE to being raped is well-advised to read up on The Rwandan Genocide, perhaps even find photos of the event. Difficult as it might be for us bougie-beyond-all-belief Westerners to comprehend, humans really do experience far atrocities far more heinous than sexual assault

          I’ve spoken to several, given my line of work. And they’re overwhelmingly grateful to be alive

            I feel sorry for the women who have to interact with you due to your line of work. I’m sure if your employers saw this you would be out of a job.

              I feel sorry for the women who mistake you for an ally, when you harbor such a low view of their resilience

                My view is their view and their view is that they would rather be lost in the woods with a bear than with you.

          I’m reminding everyone of both genders that emotions aren’t facts, evidence, reality, or truths. They’re byproducts of our thoughts, beliefs, and schemas

      The cunnilingus I deal out is infinitely less gruesome than the results of a grizzly bear going down on a chick
