Did you also get upset when they picked the bear?

Well how should we feel? Are we only allowed to feel bad for women?

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Do you often feel bad for an entire demographic group? Or even, do you feel that way as often as you feel offended on behalf of the whole of another group?

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Yes, I realize that all groups face different challenges that are often deeply unfair.

I've seen this bear thing multiple times. What bear? Is this a gay thing about bears and twinks?

it was a viral trend on tiktok a couple months ago, where many women said they would choose to encounter a bear rather then a man if they found themselves in the middle of a forest

Pretty solid indication of the way women are totally insulated from the realities of nature.

I think it's a good indication of cherrypicking by the makers of the videos to get more extreme results

Thanks. That does sound very tiktok-ish.
