This question has been around for a while but I'm curious as to your answer

And yet, given how broad the possibilities are, women are still choosing the bear.

This is still a purely theoretical choise, and since they won't face any immediate consequences from their response, they might as well use the question for their own shock factor to try and make a point.

I wonder if all women who actually had to choose between getting into a forrest alone with a bear nearby or get into a different forrest alone with a man nearby would actually pick the bear.

But I hope that no one ever has to make this choice.
