There were 3,849 women murdered in the US in 2023. But it does not list who killed them.

using the lower number from 2021, and the bear fatalities from the same year (6 total, only 4 were women), women are 36.5 times more likely to be killed by a man than a bear... and this is not counting rape.

You didn't factor in the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow.
You are such an asshole.
I'm not the first to say that, not the last, but you need to be reminded of that constantly.
Fuck you, fuck your bad faith arguments, and go away.
You are also the reason why people choose bears.
That was my thought reading every single one of their replies.
I don't know who this guy is, nor do I want to read their history... But I agree, they do seem like an asshole.
How many men existed in 2021 and how many bears existed in 2021?almost got the per capita rates
Also if you're going to include the rape statistics you gotta include them for bears too.
I'm sure your keen criticism of statistical assessments of the situation will change the minds of woman everywhere.
Is that scaling for interactions? Total amount of women who've interacted with a bear VS a man.
Murder isn't the only way to be killed. Case in point, 2,958 women's deaths are classified as "passenger vehicle accidents", plus another 2,126 pedestrian deaths.
By gender, the overwhelming majority of accident drivers are men (13,085 : 5,212). So if you're worried specifically about dying and you exclude all murderers, just getting in a car makes other male drivers vastly more dangerous than bears.
Holy shit, that's nuts! This should be in the top comments for this silly hypothetical lol. I think you just checkmated nearly everyone trying to argue against the bear.
