Some 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

    Sure. I guess it depends on what odds you are comfortable with. I prefer the very small odds of something worse than death or anything happing at all with Man than the high odds of death with a bear.

      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

        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.

        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.
