    Exactly. The bear thing showed that many women think that the average bear is less risky than the average man under certain circumstances. It has nothing to do with all men or all bears…

    In other words, it shows that you can ignore the words and play the victim if you like, but it doesn’t stand up to careful scrutiny.

      Or maybe it’s hyperbolic nonsense with no actual logic applied. I don’t see women at zoos diving into bear enclosures when strange men pass by.

      Careful scrutiny seems to indicate it’s a stupid statement uttered by hysterical idiots.
