minus-squaremarkstos@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 months agoMy wife was recently in a forest with a random bear. The bear walked away. My mother and sister told a story of meeting a bear on a trail. The bear walked away. A large percentage of women I have met have a story about a problem with an aggressive man at some point.
