Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
This didn't actually explain it which is why I asked on here actually.
I think it's a tiktok meme. Someone somewhere brought up the question of "say you're stranded in the woods. Would you rather encounter a random man or a bear?" Most men say the man, obviously. Most women have to think about it. A lot of men are offended by the idea that a woman might be roughly as afraid of random men as she is random bears, and a lot of those guys are in women's DMs making real good cases for the bear.
I think you need to change the question a little bit to get it through thick male skulls. Instead of just a random man, imagine it's a random man who's likely to be at least 10% larger than you, has been taking testosterone supplements, and wants to have sex with you. The bear seems a little bit more reasonable at that point.
I really appreciate it!
@starman2112 @optissima i literally did not have to think about it for an instant. I did not even have to use my brain. you know what did have to spend a lot of time thinking about? putting all of the items on the the never-ending list of reasons why into words. and it's wayyyyyyyyy longer than this bro
I mean, among racists yeah. This isn't really analogous to race, though. Rape culture is a thing. Women have legitimate reason to be wary around men in a way that white people do not have legitimate reason to be wary around black people.
What more context do you want?
