Good lord the discourse here is about as well as the man or bear discussions.
Something I notice is how everytime someone makes these kinds of criticisms, the counterarguments turn into a pit of semantics and extropolations. As if the original post was a massive research thesis rather than just women venting frustration over the entitlement and danger they're subjected to daily.
You gotta look past the specific wording to see the overarching societal themes, emotions, and issues. It's like those magic eye pictures.
I thought the funniest part about the man vs bear stuff was women saying how they'd pick the bear because "at least it was honest about wanting to kill me" lmao
