Was wondering when this stupid arse question would make it here. My wife hit me with this and it didn't end well. I asked if we were just in the woods or were we together in the woods, as in, is the bear or man in the woods and I also happen to be in the woods or are we dropped together in the woods. She said together in the woods. Then I said, "oh then a man, anyone saying anything else is a fricking idiot."
She was appalled and then said, "women are more likely to be assualted or..."
I don't know what the rest was because I said something like I'm more likely to be killed by you than a bear because I regularly spend 0 time with bears either. Women with children are also more likely to step on a lego than be hurt by a bear too.
And that's when it went downhill.
I get the premise and understand the intent. Men are creepy and dangerous and women need to be on guard with every man they encounter. It's a great exercise to contemplate the brutality of man in ambiguous situations. But there's a clear answer answer here if we're being dropped in a clearing together.
