Just stick these people in a forest with a actual bear, christ I've never actually seen a bear in real life but I know going up against one would be suicidal.
I know going up against one [bear] would be suicidal.
So would going up against a man, though, if you're a woman. And a man might be more determined, and less likely to be scared off. I don't think that's the argument though. The average man is less likely to attack than the average bear. It doesn't really matter which one is more dangerous in a fight, or what they'll do to you if you win, the man has a near zero chance of attacking you.
Even if men were more dangerous than bears (and they absolutely can be, thanks to technology), running into a man is still safer than running into a bear, because the man will probably just nod and say "howdy."
Statistically, if a woman is a victim of violence or assault, she is far more likely going to be attacked by someone she knows such as a family member or a friend compared to a stranger (in the woods). Also, a man is far more likely to attack another man than a woman. It's why men make up the vast majority of victims of violence and assault.
