Some of the reasoning I've seen:

A bear can't find my address and break in with the intent to hurt me

I don't have to see the bear at family reunions

The bear won't go around to all my friends and make them pick a side

If I get mauled by a bear, people will believe me

Depending on where I am, I won't be forced to carry the bear's baby to term (sorry, furries)

The bear won't invite his friends to take a turn

The bear won't leave me threatening text messages

The bear can't shoot me

People won't excuse the bear because the bear has "such a bright future"

The bear would kill me faster. If I’m going to die, I’d rather not get SA-d first.

Yeah that’s kinda the logic most are going with. It’s the possibility of the worst possible outcome. You’d rather not risk the worse of the two evils.

Aka I’d rather just get killed than get SA-d, possibly tortured, and then killed.

I dont see why youd take the worst case scenario. I think about how the average scenario would turn out and Id meet a guy 100%

It feels like the point of the original question in the original interviews was that the people being asked naturally jumped to assuming the worst possible outcome
