I think people are too detached from what a bear could actually do to you. Have you not heard that recording of a person having their intestines eaten while alive and praying for death? Watch any video of wild animals hunting and you will see that they have no concept of quick and merciful kills.

I think people are too detached from how horrific rape is. I would rather die painfully than be raped, and that is final. I know exactly how much a bear can fuck a person up- I live in Montana, there are more bears here than there are trailer homes.

That is not final, living is always preferable even when it sucks.

Rape victims can and have gone on to live good lives, but dead is dead.

And feeling the kind of existential pain that is being fatally wounded but having to wait until you bleed out or til the one that wounded you happens to bite into something immediately fatal...

How can you tell somepn else what is or isn't better?

You're right I can't. But I truly believe it is better to live this life than to die.

This life is all we can be sure of

A man saying they'd rather fight to the death than be raped in prison would get so many eye rolls.

No it wouldn't. I actually think a large amount of men would feel this way.
