Man or bear: how women's safety issues came out of the woods 🐻🌳👨

The hypothetical question to women was asked: would you rather be lost in the woods with a bear or a man? It was just an innocuous "would you rather" but it created a huge heated debate...which then got incredibly ugly and dark. It was a thought exercise to talk about the sadly real issue of violence against women and allowed us a way to have an engaging conversation about it, and it just got worse and worse...
