CW for spoiler. A recent conversation on here led me to reread Ursula K. Leguin's novelette The Women Men Don't See, which anticipated the man/bear encounter question by many years with extraterrestrial creatures instead of bears, but the moral is the same.

Couch chose bear. Will JD Vance ever recover from this?

This performance by a testosterone pumped man-baby is exactly why so many women would choose a bear over a man in the now infamous #bearOrMan thought experiment.

As for his wife - I feel like she has Stockholm syndrome in that she seems convinced she cannot live without her alcoholic aggressive husband. He must have been selling her some really prime grade gaslighting that she isn't delighted to see him hauled off to jail so she can enjoy the rest of the cruise alone.

The new "response" to "bear or man?" is so stupid, I can't even figure out what these guys are thinking, or what "point" they think they're making. (And why a tree?! 🤣)
Like, are they really trying to equate sharing their feelings with getting mauled by a bear? Or with what women are justifiably afraid men might do to them in the woods?
"Would you rather open up to a woman or a tree?" says way more about the men themselves than women, trees, or anything else. #ManVsBear #ManOrBear #BearOrMan

If the bear attacks me, no one will ask what I was wearing.
Feminist Collages NYC: In a debate that has now gone viral, women were asked whether they’d rather be stuck in the woods with a man or a bear. Everything we painted was found in comments sections. Which is heartbreaking to say the least
Follow Feminist Collages NYC on Instagram.
A bear wouldn’t film it and send it to all of his friends.
If I survive the bear attack, I won’t have to see the bear at family reunions.
No one will say I liked the bear attack.
If the bear and the man both want to hurt me and I scream loud enough, there’s a better chance the bear will run away.
The bear doesn’t get enjoyment out of it.

A hypothetical question going viral on social media asks women if they’d rather be alone in the woods with an unknown man or a bear.
Majority of women are choosing the bear. Reasons women say they’d choose the bear.
“The bear will either kill me or leave me alone, there are not 400 other horrible ways a bear can hurt me,” the post read.
Among other reasons, according to the post, that women said they would choose the bear:
“No one would question me about what I was wearing if the bear attacked me.”
“If I survive the bear attack, I will not have to see the bear at family reunions.”
“A bear would not film it and send it to his friends.”
“No one will question if the bear attack really happened.”

Glad #BearVsMan conversation is happening. I wish it went beyond talking about individuals to discussing systems.
Bears don't have a culture around them that actively encourages treating women as their property.
"Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee."

Graphic I struggled in an awkward phone app to make while watching my (cis white male) kids play at the park. This essentially seems to be one of the biggest barriers behind men's understanding of the #bearVSMan / #bearOrMan debate--they're so fixated on how dangerous surviving a bear attack ONCE IT'S ALREADY ATTACKED is, vs what all us women are saying: which one is more LIKELY to attack in the first place. (no comment on the inshells who literally believe that bear attacks happen more often than even just femicide, ignoring all the other forms of SA that can be much worse than death)
There are of course many other reasons why the majority of women asked choose bear ("they can't impregnate you then force you to marry them" and "they can't buy a gun to get revenge on you for saying no" to name but a few), and the type of men who are too busy mansplaining how deadly a bear attack is ONCE IT'S ALREADY ATTACKED will never shut tf up long enough to learn why they're completely missing the point.
I gotta go make dinner so I can't finish writing all of this out... But hopefully the point is made. Now to prepare for all the inshell meninists who still snidely refuse to accept why they're the reason we choose bear 🙃
(igtg so I'll add alt text later)
Edit: changed the wording to be clearer on the graphic

Let's rephrase that bear vs man thing. Maybe this makes it clear what the choice is about. Men, how do you want to go? Being killed by a bear that's protecting its young or by another dude who rapes and tortures you for three days before stabbing you to death?

SWMBO has said that if the man were me, she’d pick that.
Otherwise? Bear.
I choose to believe her, because I know her heart is in the right place.
