You spelled it wrong, the sign should say "Safety is more important than feelings"
This is specifically about the bear meme though. Way too many men feel personally attacked by women not feeling safe around men they don't know. Instead of thinking about why that is the men cry and attack the women.
can we just drop this stupid joke that many missed the point of? its getting real annoying real fast. people suck, get over yourselves.
It's this sexist statement still being made? Cool, cool, cool... I mean it's not actually, but here we are with this crap still being said.
Men's feelings is what makes some of them unsafe to begin with.
We can't address safety concerns of women without addressing the thinking of men, and trying to shut men up a little harder is not gonna help.
My edge-case where I run into something semi-related to this issue is when I go on my daily walks and get caught walking behind women. I’m a fast walker, it pains me to have to slow down for people and I don’t like having to walk awkwardly around other people walking too slow (especially if they’re just barely slow but not too slow). I realize that the Flash is trapped in a living hell walking behind all these goddamn slow walkers.
I dislike walking behind women especially, nothing that’s their fault, they’re just living life, but because then I get extra self-conscious, like, “Oh geez, what if they think I’m following them or that I’m trying took at their butt or what if I’m making them uncomfortable.” It’s about the implication. Walking slowly isn’t an option because it extends the whole thing out and makes it worse, so then I have to re-route my whole walking routine on the off-chance my very existence might make somebody else uncomfortable.
I’ve tried saying things to them to try to put them at ease like, “I wasn’t planning on raping you,” or “Hey, it’s ok, I’m not a rapist,” but nothing seems to work, if anything, it makes them more uncomfortable. I honestly don’t know what women want from men.
