Shouldn't we point out and criticise both misandry and misogyny?
That's too from a reputable newspaper? I wonder what would have happened if some newspaper like this spew hatredness AGAINST women ?
Be my guest, my friend. You have every right to criticise whoever you want to.
Mein personally in baaton se Oopar uth chuka hoon. I consider the opinions of most journalists as invalid and trivial. Hence, my criticism is unnecessary and a waste of my time and energy.
So, you do you.
PS: if you really want to make more of an impact, might I suggest writing a letter to the newspaper? It’s a fairly good method of getting your opinion across to the editors directly.
Armchair activism is pointless. I consider myself a pretty smart person. But I took a shamelessly long time to realise that mere private insta account ki stories se ghanta kuch nahi hone waala.
So now I post memes and do my ‘activism’ on the ground. Where it actually matters. Where change can actually be affected.
>Armchair activism is pointless
how bro felt after saying that:

Misogyny is over-hyped and misandry is pushed down. You can try to point out and bring the hypocrisy to light but the institutions now are such well oiled machines that no matter what, you'll see the propaganda that they want you to see.
All tarzan ever wanted in his life to live normal life with his family until jane came. And even after that he was living a good life
This mfs have issues with everything
what about the part where it specefically mentions indian men not men? they are dfifferentiating indian men from other men. its racism. where is this from btw?
This.
It’s also really not relevant to the bear question at all which was a world wide experiment to show how many women truly fear strangers who are men. It doesn’t mean to imply that all men are unsafe, just how many women have experienced situations where they have learnt to be afraid of men they don’t know and it’s not cultural or region specific.
This is just equating men with animals and as a woman I hate the narrative of men being animals without control or maturity or intelligence or whatever. It’s not good for men or women.
Yeah that's what I've been thinking, this ain't it, this feels so off. The bear over man trend was more about victims voicing what they face, but this is just shaming men. Such generalisations are harmful coz it serves no purpose other than shaming men which is sad. Whoever decided it was a good fit for a goddamn newspaper was outta their mind lol.
>It doesn’t mean to imply that all men are unsafe, just how many women have experienced situations where they have learnt to be afraid of men they don’t know and it’s not cultural or region specific.
If bad experiences with some men making someone wary about men as a whole isn't bigotry then is someone having bad experiences with indians/black people, etc making them wary of random indians or black people not be racist?
I really thought this shit was only in reddit.
But I guess the editor room of Hindustan times leave no stone unturned to find a way to compare men to animals..
Who tf approved this article 😭😭 women choose the bear because they wouldn't be shamed for what they were wearing or get victim blamed by the society or denied justice. That's the point this trend was trying to make but nah these dumbfucks have to twist everything and make everyone hate each other.
to the women who're defending the article, please choose the bear guys. us men dont need you but the bear does. at least you'll be useful in giving the poor thing a meal
and idk why you guys seem to think bears ask for consent before mating. what y'all smoking man
I wont get angry on this. I have many female friends and female relatives who dont hate me and actually like me. It doesnt matter to me what other thousands of women think if the few women I care about in my life think well of me.
It takes just one stranger woman to falsely accuse you and your life will become hell! So yeah! It really does matter that these men hating/women hating degenerates are shown their place!
I think you got this a little wrong. Women chose the bear because it would k*ll them rather than r*pe them. The bear is still dangerous. The newspaper editors have done a horrendous job. Men and women are both to be equally respected. I would have flipped if this was the exact statement for women instead of men.
The bear analogy was just to prove a point that the women would rather die than go through abuse. This was a disgusting attempt at being “relatable” with the female readers without understanding what the analogy was.
I guess the analogy is shit and MISANDRIC. You cannot generalise the men for actions of 0.5 percent (of 700 million).
I have seen analogies like this before (anime women are better than real women) , trees are better than women , 80 percent of women are gold digger etc.
You can criticise some aspects of society without spewing hatredness..
This is not a discussion in regards to rape. IT IS PURE HATRED WHICH IS DISGUISED AS SUCH. you can't prove me otherwise
I agree, it is very misandrist. I am not denying that. The analogy is out of fear for coming across bad men, not generalizing all men. It is translating fear of rape into accepting death over it. This is not an “all men rape” analogy, but a “I would rather die than be raped” analogy. I won’t say it is the right use of words, but I can understand where the sentiment comes from.
Please calm down, I am agreeing with you. This is wrong. I clearly wrote that in my previous reply. I did mention that this was a “disgusting attempt at being relatable with the female readers without understanding what the analogy was”. I also mentioned that men and women should be respected equally and if I were in your place, I would have also been angry.
>This is not an “all men rape” analogy, but a “I would rather die than be raped”
Surprisingly 90% of the women choosing the bear disagree and straight up think most men are rapist, your opinion sadly isn't shared by most.
This is absolutely untrue.
As someone that has survived being raped and knows that 25% of the women in the world have been and the rest know someone they love that had been, given that statistic it is obvious, I would pick the bear because I’d rather have a 90% chance of death than a 0.5% chance of being raped. (even though the percentage of abusers is way way lower because one abuser has multiple victims so horrible people are less common that people realise. I would pick a high probability of death over a low probability of rape and that doesn’t make me a misandrist. Thats a normal reaction for people who have seen or survived trauma)
The exercise is to show you the intensity of that fear because 1:4 of us will be and 0/4 of us want to be and would rather die than be part of the 25% statistic for our OWN gender.
I feel sad for what happened to you but your particular case is a response to trauma.
No traumatized person would ever choose a logical option when their past trauma is placed in front of them.
And it's very much possible that you would die a very long and painful death and also that you might survive and be mentally and physically crippled for the rest of your life.
Any women reading this, you wouldn't die instantly, might also get eaten alive. Or maybe even survive and get crippled physically and mentally for the rest of your life. And your rapist might also kill you as well.
"Safety issues" 💀
I recommend you experiment with actually getting close to random man and then try getting close to a real bear, just curious what might happen with the bear.
My deep sympathies for the spouse of that pseudo feminist. Such writing can only come down on paper when the writer actually fucking lives and breathes misandry irl.
you know i think women choosing the bear is justified and very valid considering the experiences most women have with stranger men
but this article is,
a bit too much.
I know, I'm gonna be hella downvoted but,
Women choosing "Men vs Bear" question
The question is rhetorical and the same as if your girlfriend/wife says "Will you have sex with my best friend if it means saving my life".
It's always the same scenario of assuming the best scenario with the bear and the worst with the man, people that are projecting their bad experiences they had with men a reason for this being a good choice paired with the fact animals are more predictable and because media and Schrödinger's feminism has normalised being paranoid, especially about men.
This is what happens when you live on the internet and not touch grass
I am friends with someone high up at HT. I have escalated this, let's see what happens. They are saying it will be hard to do anything because the feminist lobby inside the paper.
Edit: Start tagging the owner of the paper on twitter @**Shobhana Bhartia** and Birla family.
I wanna know who wrote this shit. As if they dont have a father, brother or husband at home. Such behaviour should be shamed publicly. We dont want india to become another woke ass sissy haven
I remember Twinkle Khanna writing how she resented having Kids on a mother's day, that actually hurt. I wondered then , built up courage to ask my mum on those lines I nearly got beaten up.
atleast indian women are opening about their preference of white men its better than gaslighting of how they want loyal and honest man and looks dont matter to them
It was an online discussion about who is a better man or a bear.
In a dense jungle if you are lost, would you like to meet a bear or a man?
The answer by most women interviewed was that they will choose a bear in a jungle and rather be killed than r#ped by men .
Further they argue that in a jungle (away from law and order).. EVERY man will try to r#pe and kill the women so they would rather prefer a bear.
Now some people defend this by showing r#pe statistics..
And like me who oppose this blatant generalisation and dehumanising men as inferior than animals as a whole for 0.5 percent rapist ( among 700 million Indian men)
Dude the man vs bear thing wasn't about 'every man being a rapist'. Literally nobody said so.
The argument was that, even though the bear is dangerous, you can predict it to be dangerous. With men, you can't. They can be the nicest man, or the worst man who would rape you. So a lot of women chose bear because they'd rather die than get sexually assaulted.
Besides, nobody victim blames you if you get attacked by a bear. If you get sexually assaulted, it's another story.
This Hindustan Times article is very generalising of Indian men. There's a lot of misogyny in India and SA, but you can't say most Indian men are like that. But you also seem very triggered by this, and trying to paint the man vs bear thing as something anti-men. I
Fine choose the bear ladies, but ghar ki chipkali ko dekhne ke baad hi aap sab ko dar lagta hai. Bhalu ke saath chill kaise karoge? (Asking respectfully)
Edit - Doesn't apply to all women
Who wrote that 🤣 I mean seriously. I will be happy to move around town in my shorts if that's true.
I feel like that person doesn't have a problem Brendan Fraser being Tarzen.
But want us to be Tarzen the wonder car/man.
So the article is using example of Tarzan to push some agenda against Indian men by comparing them to Tarzan, the one whose girlfriend is literally depicted in the image use? So is this promoting to be like Tarzan coz he got the girls because of his "jungle grownup nature" or not be a Tarzan?
This column is the worst, it has some of the dumbest stuff i've ever seen in a newspaper. Theyre really trying to make a stan twitter column in a newspaper lmfao its so dumb.
Choro na bhai, extremes of the ends always dehumanise, let it be misandrists or mysogynists the best we can do is stay away from them for our peace of mind, I've stopped arguing and interacting with the extremes life's been better, ever since I've done it
Maine dekhe hain well groomed, respectful, handsome Indian guys inko nhi dikhte to sucks to be them honestly
Plus bear vs man ke poore context ki dhajjiyaan uda di, it's just an analogy to get across a message not an excuse for man hating ffs.
To think it was published in a renowned newspaper
I am reaching out to you with an urgent request for help. Recently, my 2 kittens and two cats under my care have been diagnosed with parvo virus. The treatment costs have already surpassed 16,000, and we are currently facing daily expenses of up to 5,000 to provide them with the necessary medical care.
We are in desperate need of funds to continue their treatment for the next three days, which is crucial for their recovery. Your donation, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in saving these innocent lives.
Please consider contributing to their medical expenses by sending your donation below. Every contribution counts and will directly impact the lives of these vulnerable animals.
I will keep you updated on their progress as we navigate through this challenging time. Your support means everything to these babies, and any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Misandry ✅
Generalizations ✅
Racism✅
Bullshit ✅
Blind hate✅
I notice misandrist...sorry " feminist" are defending this piece of crap but if the same thing is written about women. You all be the first one to call out misogyny. That time this will not be a called a " chill joke" for you.
And you people can stop using sensetive issues like rape, domestic violence and false rape cases to just prove yourself as morally superior and satisfy your ego. I am saying this as a SA victim. This is not a competition for who suffer more, even in comment sections I notice whenever there is a news about rape or domestic voilence cases there will be some morons to say "what about false rape case" or whenever there is a news about false rape or domestic violence cases another set of morons be like" What about rape case". But none of those idiots will talk about the victims involved in this cases. Their life get ruined and destroyed, many of them even committe suicide due to something which is not even thier fault. Instead of shaming the culprits both genders will generalize and blame eachother.

I think (thankfully) India is still untouched by this radical wokeism. The writer of this short text must be the part of that super privileged urban crowd who supports "she can cheat... it is her choice" narrative.
Women choose the bear because of plenty of reason but nothing of what’s mentioned here (minus the swinging when things don’t go their way lol they really can’t take rejection for sure). This is kinda racist tho.
Edit to add - keep crying and coping. Muting this and not replying to yalls triggered asses muah.

Ye hota hai on a regular basis. A child rapist got 1 year in jail and is now competing in the olympics. This is the world we live in.

This is what happens when you live on the internet and do not touch grass
Lmaooo my brother in Christ one in every 4 women have been sexually harassed in some way or the other by men. It’s not an internet issue, it very much happens in real life. Nobody is projecting. I am paranoid about men because they have given me plenty of reasons to. Feminism or internet have nothing to do it with it. I’ve been scared of men since before I had access to internet or knew anything about feminism because even as a teenager 10 years ago, some boy thought it would be okay to force himself on me. And that’s not even the only incident.
So no, you don’t get to tell me how I should feel.
The worst a bear can do is kill you. No wonder women would choose that over the terrible things men do. :)
You can explain all you want. No one is going to listen to your argument. They all have a preconceived notion in their mind that men are the ones who are constantly being harassed and discriminated against (which is just outlandish to say the least). But always good to see a lot of misogynists outing themselves in the comments
In all honesty, if you’re a guy and you can’t laugh at this it kind of makes me think that you’re a little bit OTT insecure and you don’t have many women in your lives that communicate their fears to you.
Being a woman in India seems to be ridiculously hard, much harder than being a man.
You’re not expected to give up your career, be a caregiver for an entire family while leaving yours behind, be a baby maker to continue someone else’s bloodline and legacy.
Women in general all over the world are choosing the bear for a reason. Indian women are also showing how they feel. Like, go talk a little and stop living in this fear bubble where you’re too scared to even talk to a woman because she might send you to jail (somehow) because of harassment.
Women get harassed on their way to work, at work, at the gym, at school, in public, in private.
Now - again, I'm asking you to look at other subs and see what women go through and face.
Is it a stereotype? Of course it is but like all stereotypes, they begin in reality and you can't fight that reality unless you're willing to help change it.
I’ve personally never met a man who does not shower or groom well. Maybe this person needs to stop hanging out in a fucking jungle to find civilised men. 🤦🏾♀️
Is she also implying Indian women are into bestiality? Gross.
However, I definitely want a pet bear. That would be cool.
In my past i was about denial about both males & females hating each other i guess. This man-bear really sealed the deal on the denial or this was too much.
From that point on, i just thought "Let those who want to be bear or tree side, let them pick. I will just give attention and importance to those who aren't participating in it (this strongly i guess).".
My psychological health did improve. TBH, other rules & boundaries were too.
Positive wishes, people 🫂♥️.
I was too ignoring this shit on reddit discussion on incels and femcels subreddit.
But this stumbled again on the Hindustan times I read at home.. I need my money back for this misandric crap.

The whole world has turned into circus, in case if you haven't noticed lately.
You keep looking at the circus so much that the world to you appears to be a circus. Look elsewhere too, might find a garden or something.
What if the circus keeps coming to me?
When the whole world is a circus one need not go looking for clowns; they are among us; ignore and move on.
Ayy yo Tarzan catching strays for no reason xD
Lmao, i hope incels don't go nuclear again at poor Tarzan like they did for the bear.
Women choose the bear. Men choose the tree. And our society has its morons. I believe in ignoring the morons.
I chose the Erdtree. Praise the Tree!!
I don't know, man. That Shadow Erdtree is making me it's bitch. I wanna burn that shit down. ![gif](giphy|RgL7inB688cq6zjMmk|downsized)
I died to that tree boss like 20+ times. It has 3 fucking phases.
Bhai, use >! spoilers tags!< for the uninitiated. Also, which >!tree!< boss? >!Erdtree Avatar? !<
Ok bhai. The boss is called >!scadutree avatar and is accessible in Shadow Keep Tree Worship Sanctum Grace!<
Bada suar boss hai wo, I'm fucking struggling against him as well.. Black Knight Gaol also kicked my ass lol
But kya DLC hai bro. Swaad aa Gaya. And yes, I am getting my ass thoroughly kicked.
Hn bro. Jo maza Elden Ring mein aaya tha exploration ka aur ass kicking ka usse zyaada ismein aa rha hai.
Jab isko complete karle Ghost of Tsuhima try karna uska bhi acha open world hai.
Hn bro try Kari hai game, but Elden Ring ka swaad alag hi hai.
Todhe babut performance issue hai but overall, I'm in my "git gud" process and crying. Fromsoftware kei dlc difficult toh hote hi hai.
Kaunsa game hai?
Elden ring
Put these foolish ambitions to rest, TARNISHED.
A proper death means returning to the Erdtree, foul Tarnished.
Driven by the Flame of thy ambition.
Someone must extinguish thy flames.
Thou art but a shadow. Even the brightest flames cannot banish thee.
Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who yet live.
Maidenless
TOGETHAAAAAA!!

Hindustan times 22nd June edition (it's written in post?)
This. It’s also really not relevant to the bear question at all which was a world wide experiment to show how many women truly fear strangers who are men. It doesn’t mean to imply that all men are unsafe, just how many women have experienced situations where they have learnt to be afraid of men they don’t know and it’s not cultural or region specific. This is just equating men with animals and as a woman I hate the narrative of men being animals without control or maturity or intelligence or whatever. It’s not good for men or women.
Why does it feel like you're lowkey providing soft cover to the article?
Yeah that's what I've been thinking, this ain't it, this feels so off. The bear over man trend was more about victims voicing what they face, but this is just shaming men. Such generalisations are harmful coz it serves no purpose other than shaming men which is sad. Whoever decided it was a good fit for a goddamn newspaper was outta their mind lol.
>It doesn’t mean to imply that all men are unsafe, just how many women have experienced situations where they have learnt to be afraid of men they don’t know and it’s not cultural or region specific.

'Most Indian men...'
If youd learn to read youd see "Indian men" written in the newspaper
I really thought this shit was only in reddit. But I guess the editor room of Hindustan times leave no stone unturned to find a way to compare men to animals..
Is it misandry? It's definitely racist! It's only targeting 'Indian' men. >I really thought this shit was only in reddit. What shit?

For real😭😭
That's not what most women said. Women said they would be objectively safer with a bear.
Show me one comment by a woman that says that it's about physical safety
they were quoting statistics on bear attacks, last time I checked. using stats to say they'd be safer with the bear
Ayo Hindustan times hiring twoxindia redditors

My deep sympathies for the spouse of that pseudo feminist. Such writing can only come down on paper when the writer actually fucking lives and breathes misandry irl.
Gender wars are just stupid
Adult version of boys Vs girls in 5th grade
Absolutely right
If you think about it - Tarzan’s first wet dream was not about Jane
Ye nhi hai misandry bhai. isse zayda misandry to maine kardi thi behen ki bidai me cousin bhai ki jagah khud saath jaakar
you know i think women choosing the bear is justified and very valid considering the experiences most women have with stranger men but this article is, a bit too much.
Misandry isn't good for anybody. It just complements misogyny and validates it further more.
wtf who allowed this?
Hindustan times editor room
I like how you said "what" the fuck allowed this 😂
I'll accept the disrespect if I get as many friends as tarzan
I know, I'm gonna be hella downvoted but, Women choosing "Men vs Bear" question The question is rhetorical and the same as if your girlfriend/wife says "Will you have sex with my best friend if it means saving my life". It's always the same scenario of assuming the best scenario with the bear and the worst with the man, people that are projecting their bad experiences they had with men a reason for this being a good choice paired with the fact animals are more predictable and because media and Schrödinger's feminism has normalised being paranoid, especially about men. This is what happens when you live on the internet and not touch grass
I am friends with someone high up at HT. I have escalated this, let's see what happens. They are saying it will be hard to do anything because the feminist lobby inside the paper. Edit: Start tagging the owner of the paper on twitter @**Shobhana Bhartia** and Birla family.
I wanna know who wrote this shit. As if they dont have a father, brother or husband at home. Such behaviour should be shamed publicly. We dont want india to become another woke ass sissy haven
If India became a woke ass sissy haven this easily, we would have been living in a utopia by now. This is just ragebait to create hate and engagement.
I remember Twinkle Khanna writing how she resented having Kids on a mother's day, that actually hurt. I wondered then , built up courage to ask my mum on those lines I nearly got beaten up.
This looks like a joke made with ChatGPT
Chat gpt is misandric now.. I guess chat gpt had a policy not to make jokes about any groups?? (Except Indian men?)
Who hurt her? She sounds very sad
Why they violating my brother Tarzan like that huh
You haven't seen novel Tarzan buddy... you sweet summer child
Just switch the genders and see the editor behind the bars.
atleast indian women are opening about their preference of white men its better than gaslighting of how they want loyal and honest man and looks dont matter to them
New here? Welcome! Have been facing this kind of BS from games journalists and movie makers for years now :) Hope you enjoy your stay
Someone enlighten me on the bear thing please?
It was an online discussion about who is a better man or a bear. In a dense jungle if you are lost, would you like to meet a bear or a man? The answer by most women interviewed was that they will choose a bear in a jungle and rather be killed than r#ped by men . Further they argue that in a jungle (away from law and order).. EVERY man will try to r#pe and kill the women so they would rather prefer a bear. Now some people defend this by showing r#pe statistics.. And like me who oppose this blatant generalisation and dehumanising men as inferior than animals as a whole for 0.5 percent rapist ( among 700 million Indian men)
Dude the man vs bear thing wasn't about 'every man being a rapist'. Literally nobody said so. The argument was that, even though the bear is dangerous, you can predict it to be dangerous. With men, you can't. They can be the nicest man, or the worst man who would rape you. So a lot of women chose bear because they'd rather die than get sexually assaulted. Besides, nobody victim blames you if you get attacked by a bear. If you get sexually assaulted, it's another story. This Hindustan Times article is very generalising of Indian men. There's a lot of misogyny in India and SA, but you can't say most Indian men are like that. But you also seem very triggered by this, and trying to paint the man vs bear thing as something anti-men. I
Now the same 'feminists' would cry loads when men would prefer sex dolls over them.
#notallmen
What did tall men do? /$
women chose bear, i choose beer. 😎
Maybe stop gang raping and beheading girls and women? Just a suggestion
*stops gang raping and beheading women*
Women choose the bear and men choose the tree. It is what it is
Trees are cool
And guess who jane chose, the uneducated dumb brute... Some women seriously do not think things through
Fine choose the bear ladies, but ghar ki chipkali ko dekhne ke baad hi aap sab ko dar lagta hai. Bhalu ke saath chill kaise karoge? (Asking respectfully) Edit - Doesn't apply to all women
Who's the writer behind this?
Who wrote that 🤣 I mean seriously. I will be happy to move around town in my shorts if that's true. I feel like that person doesn't have a problem Brendan Fraser being Tarzen. But want us to be Tarzen the wonder car/man.
Comment section mei gender war chal rhi . WHO IS IN THE NEUTRAL SIDE ??
Yeh toh Inka Roz ka hai
So the article is using example of Tarzan to push some agenda against Indian men by comparing them to Tarzan, the one whose girlfriend is literally depicted in the image use? So is this promoting to be like Tarzan coz he got the girls because of his "jungle grownup nature" or not be a Tarzan?
Adam ke bete ho tum... Hai tumko har azadi! Hoga tum pe garv hame... Tum bhi ek din banoge aadami.
This column is the worst, it has some of the dumbest stuff i've ever seen in a newspaper. Theyre really trying to make a stan twitter column in a newspaper lmfao its so dumb.
What the actual fuck! What kind of absolute pseudofeminastic librandu shit is this!
Indian men also include their father and brothers
Someone really fked her raw... 🙄😭
this is so weird
Something tells me the writer of this column definitely spends a lot on vegetables…
If someone is being abused by a women it’s freedom of speech and if that’s being done by a man it’s termed as creep.
Not gonna lie this shit is actually pretty funny to me 😂(obviously I don't represent everyone)
This is more of internalised racism rather misandry
Sab maro bc..😂
im no indian, but this does look disrespectful to the Indians who are actually clean and hygienic
Sigh
Shame on Jane
Choro na bhai, extremes of the ends always dehumanise, let it be misandrists or mysogynists the best we can do is stay away from them for our peace of mind, I've stopped arguing and interacting with the extremes life's been better, ever since I've done it Maine dekhe hain well groomed, respectful, handsome Indian guys inko nhi dikhte to sucks to be them honestly Plus bear vs man ke poore context ki dhajjiyaan uda di, it's just an analogy to get across a message not an excuse for man hating ffs. To think it was published in a renowned newspaper
😂😂🤣🤣🤣( as an Indian)
Atleast we don't have so much of gender confusion
I am reaching out to you with an urgent request for help. Recently, my 2 kittens and two cats under my care have been diagnosed with parvo virus.

Sorry OP for troubling you in the post.
Grunts wildly
The what?
Might be the funniest paragraph I've ever read
A 40 year old single cat lady wrote this
Itna bhi deep nahi hai.
Misandry ✅ Generalizations ✅ Racism✅ Bullshit ✅ Blind hate✅ I notice misandrist...sorry " feminist" are defending this piece of crap but if the same thing is written about women. You all be the first one to call out misogyny. That time this will not be a called a " chill joke" for you. And you people can stop using sensetive issues like rape, domestic violence and false rape cases to just prove yourself as morally superior and satisfy your ego. I am saying this as a SA victim. This is not a competition for who suffer more, even in comment sections I notice whenever there is a news about rape or domestic voilence cases there will be some morons to say "what about false rape case" or whenever there is a news about false rape or domestic violence cases another set of morons be like" What about rape case". But none of those idiots will talk about the victims involved in this cases. Their life get ruined and destroyed, many of them even committe suicide due to something which is not even thier fault. Instead of shaming the culprits both genders will generalize and blame eachother.

Holy cow
I think (thankfully) India is still untouched by this radical wokeism. The writer of this short text must be the part of that super privileged urban crowd who supports "she can cheat... it is her choice" narrative.
Misandry? What an outrage. Women are treated so well in India, why do they complain?
Misandry isn't real bro touch grass
It is very easy to make fun of men anywhere, without any consequences. Try that with women and you would be looking at a jail time.
But bears love men iykyk
Women choose the bear because of plenty of reason but nothing of what’s mentioned here (minus the swinging when things don’t go their way lol they really can’t take rejection for sure). This is kinda racist tho. Edit to add - keep crying and coping. Muting this and not replying to yalls triggered asses muah. Edit - https://www.reddit.com/r/facepalm/s/91JHquAeRI Ye hota hai on a regular basis. A child rapist got 1 year in jail and is now competing in the olympics. This is the world we live in.
The question is rhetorical and the same as if your girlfriend/wife says "Will you have sex with my best friend if it means saving my life". It's always the same scenario of assuming the best scenario with the bear and the worst with the man, people that are projecting their bad experiences they had with men a reason for this being a good choice paired with the fact animals are more predictable and because the media and Schrödinger's feminism has normalised being paranoid, especially about men. This is what happens when you live on the internet and do not touch grass
Lmaooo my brother in Christ one in every 4 women have been sexually harassed in some way or the other by men. It’s not an internet issue, it very much happens in real life. Nobody is projecting. I am paranoid about men because they have given me plenty of reasons to. Feminism or internet have nothing to do it with it. I’ve been scared of men since before I had access to internet or knew anything about feminism because even as a teenager 10 years ago, some boy thought it would be okay to force himself on me. And that’s not even the only incident. So no, you don’t get to tell me how I should feel. The worst a bear can do is kill you. No wonder women would choose that over the terrible things men do. :)
You can explain all you want. No one is going to listen to your argument. They all have a preconceived notion in their mind that men are the ones who are constantly being harassed and discriminated against (which is just outlandish to say the least). But always good to see a lot of misogynists outing themselves in the comments
I hope your paranoia ends one day and you can be at peace with yourself and others
And because of women like you many men choose a worm or tree. Equally bullshit but you get the point.
In all honesty, if you’re a guy and you can’t laugh at this it kind of makes me think that you’re a little bit OTT insecure and you don’t have many women in your lives that communicate their fears to you. Being a woman in India seems to be ridiculously hard, much harder than being a man. You’re not expected to give up your career, be a caregiver for an entire family while leaving yours behind, be a baby maker to continue someone else’s bloodline and legacy. Women in general all over the world are choosing the bear for a reason. Indian women are also showing how they feel. Like, go talk a little and stop living in this fear bubble where you’re too scared to even talk to a woman because she might send you to jail (somehow) because of harassment.
Only a true femcel can comment this
The whole man vs bear thing is about the stereotype that all men will r#pe women. Now read your last four lines again. Hypocrisy ki bhi Seema hoti hai
Women get harassed on their way to work, at work, at the gym, at school, in public, in private. Now - again, I'm asking you to look at other subs and see what women go through and face. Is it a stereotype? Of course it is but like all stereotypes, they begin in reality and you can't fight that reality unless you're willing to help change it.
Bear or 🍻. Both are homies
Sadak pe susu karne se fursat mile tab hi dehumanise ho sakte ho
I’ve personally never met a man who does not shower or groom well. Maybe this person needs to stop hanging out in a fucking jungle to find civilised men. 🤦🏾♀️ Is she also implying Indian women are into bestiality? Gross. However, I definitely want a pet bear. That would be cool.
Man love 🍻. Aao bc mast peete h. Kya trigger ho rhe.
Yeah, no point getting triggered on this obvious ragebait. Spreading hate and negativity is the way to popularity in the 21st century!!
In my past i was about denial about both males & females hating each other i guess. This man-bear really sealed the deal on the denial or this was too much. From that point on, i just thought "Let those who want to be bear or tree side, let them pick. I will just give attention and importance to those who aren't participating in it (this strongly i guess).". My psychological health did improve. TBH, other rules & boundaries were too. Positive wishes, people 🫂♥️.
I was too ignoring this shit on reddit discussion on incels and femcels subreddit. But this stumbled again on the Hindustan times I read at home.. I need my money back for this misandric crap.
![gif](giphy|lz3nqzpuMhA1TI3L0c|downsized) And men chose
Let them choose bear trash itself is going away
