You are taking an expression of fear and hurt and taking it personally. A tip: It’s not personal. Don’t take it personally. Listen, and then move on.
It doesn't personally hurt me I'm just explaining why a message like this will not resonate with men that did not already resonate with it.
When a generalization is made a person will self-insert if they fit the group. In this case a man that does not believe they are more harmful than a bear will find it unjust they are painted as worse than a bear.
