I have heard people say “would you rather share your emotions with a woman you know or a tree in the woods”, but that doesn’t really feel like it’s an equal question in my head. I am curious if anyone has a better example of the “mens” version of that question.
To be clear, I think this is a silly question, and I’m only entertaining it because I’m somewhere I don’t want to be, doing something I don’t want to be doing.
Because the bear is a danger to the woman, and is, at least rhetorically, preferable.
The tree is no danger to the man, unless it falls on him. To get a reasonable comparison, we need a comparable level of all but guaranteed danger.
I propose a megaphone in a crowded mall.
Oh, good point on bear threat VS tree threat.
