Tap for contextSome woman on the internet said she would feel safer spending a night in the woods with a random bear rather than with a random man

Where are you getting these odds from? For how many people live in bear regions, go camping/hunting/biking etc, there have not been that many bear attacks. Source

From this scenario I'm obviously assuming you have to be close to the bear for the entire day.

It's not like the bear/man is at the other side of the forest.

And as to where I got my odds from? Well out of my ass. There are no statistics on this extremely specific scenario.

Being locked in a room is quite different from maybe finding a bear in the wild. I'd suggest a grade school level statistics class if that was anything but complete sarcasm.

I would suggest paying attention before typing out your insults. No one ever said anything about being trapped in a room with a man or a bear, the question was about being lost in the FOREST with a man or a bear.
