Chilling with bears, if I understand recent events correctly.

I think I missed this, what is being referred to here?

[–] themusicman 33 points 7 months ago (42 children)

Viral hypothetical "would you rather spend a night in the woods with a bear or a man". Toxic men getting butthurt when women chose the bear

That entire question was just pure rage bait from the start, without even resulting in any useful data

To whoever asked the question in the first place, I congratulate you for comming up with the perfect rage bait question.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago (13 children)

That entire question was just pure rage bait

Isn’t that the point though? The fact that the question was asked and rather than think “shit, could we be better?”, some men are literally seething with anger about it?

Take a long walk in the darkening woods. Sleep in the open on the beach. Go to a bar and get blackout drunk.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago

Forest is pretty scary at night.

Shitting with the bathroom door open.

[–] HappycamperNZ 41 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Whats stopping you?

My wife does then gets moody at me when I walk past and see her. I should tell her to cut the crap.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Isn’t that why the scientific name for the anus is turd cutter?

[–] HappycamperNZ 19 points 7 months ago (8 children)

I thought the scientific name was birthday hole.

TIL

I asked my sister and my mum this question.

Sister: she'd be working as usual. Her only co-worker in their small biz is also a woman, so no issue. She asked about her male cats first, before asking about my nephew and BIL.

Mum: she said that she'd be eating air fryer French fries and ice cream through the day and watching movies. She can't be arsed to cook. (I'm usually the one cooking here.)

Those who are currently in a bus or airplane would probably die.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (4 children)

I believe that less than it looks like.

While only 5% of the pilots are women, flight attendants receive basic training for emergency situations, such as when the pilot is incapacitated. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of them could actually land a plane in a life-and-death situation, or at least find a passenger who can.

With buses the picture is a bit brighter. If I had to guess, 20% of the bus drivers around the world are female? And a missing driver doesn't automatically spells your death - the bus might be going slow due to traffic, and a lot of people are able to at least step on a brake.

EDIT: I'm genuinely curious about the downvotes. If I said something that is either factually wrong (false) or morally wrong (sexist, insensitive, etc.), feel free to point out, as I can't guess anything based on downvotes alone.

Alternatively, if the downvotes are due to a faulty reasoning, then please show the flaw.

Going for a topless walk on the beach at night! It's the only time I'd feel safe enough to. I've been sexually harassed and assaulted enough, starting back when I was a little girl, to know I could never do that normally.

Full hair and makeup, sparkly dress that shows a lot, go to a trendy bar with my friends and get blackout ass drunk without worrying about protecting my drink all night and knowing I can walk home by myself.

In the morning I would nurse the hangover while ordering the biggest ass teddy 🐻 bear 🐻 that will fit through my door as a memento.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago

Dress up, go out and to a bar all by myself, meet strangers without worrying about how to get rid of them later.

Go to the nicest sauna in town, spa all day.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

I'm a crazy enough woman by myself so I'd lock myself in my apartment

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

Anything I'd otherwise do.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (4 children)

Feel like 24 hours is too little to do anything special with. Would have been a little more interesting question if the timespan would have been longer. A year?

I'd travel to other countries and explore them by myself (I'd need way more than 24 hours though).

Yaay, another day, another person making fun of a medical condition and linking it to macho behaviour.
