I've been trying to bite my tongue on this whole bear thing from the beginning but these comments...
Every. Single. Post. The comments are a shit show. I'm a woman who has been through SA multiple times, I've experienced DV several times, I've been sexually harassed countless times, and experienced other frightening situations where I could have been harmed but managed to get to safety. I never reported any of it so I know first hand statistics are bullshit and revictimization is extremely common.
I will a billion times over take the damn bear. I would take sure death over the possibility of being raped again and left praying for death. I've tried to end my life by my own hand many times in the past because of the violence I've experienced. If you don't get why a lot of women pick the bear, shut the fuck up and listen to why.
I can guarantee if you ask women in your life that trust you if they have ever experienced SA, DV, or harassment they have at least once or know someone who has.
Stop antagonizing all men. There is a low probability that random men will sa you, there is very high probability that bear will eat you alive while you experience both pain and violence role-playing a KFC meal
It is fucking atrocious that you attacked a person sharing their experiences with “stop antagonizing all men.”
Right there she was expressing how every time she speaks up she gets immediately shut down, and there you were to do it again. This is me calling you out for it. Shame.
