We also don't know what type of man we're talking about. Or the distance you encounter them, or whether you're lost in the woods or on a trail. There's a lot of ambiguity in the question in general.
Which is the point. Respect to the fellow autistics in this community, but the point is not whether you could fight off a bear, the point is that the motivations of men can lead to far worse than solely animal instincts
Honestly the folk who miss this point of the Bear Discourse™ are red-flagging enough to justify avoiding them
Depends on the situation. Now that its a meme everyone is delivering it differently and its like a game of telephone. My wife asked and I wasnt given context and she butchered it so I was just excited about doing a "would you rather" question so I started asking about where and what bears and what kind of man. Obviously after I found the context the point is clear if youre not a chud but I just thought we were having an old fashioned bear convo.
Hence why the question survived this long. The ambiguity allows a lot of different lines and prevents people from getting an answer.
