You’re being reductionist to the point of losing the actual point but, if we assume you’re doing so in good faith, then yes. Without a doubt yes. Given a choice between a person’s feelings being hurt and a person getting physically hurt, the latter should win, especially when the only reason those feelings are hurt is because the person refuses to try to understand why or is so fragile they’re unable to handle criticism.
Most men I know aren’t made uncomfortable by this and, so far, the only ones who do have their feelings hurt are absolutely the ones women should choose the bear over. Not because they’re bad people, but because an important point is being made and instead of trying to understand, they dig their heels in, refuse to understand, and now gripe about being victims because people are talking about things they don’t want to think about.
I’m being far more universal than the obsession this narrow cisgender thread promotes. It was an issue with the pandemic. It is an issue with abortion rights. It is an issue with elections. It is an issue with so many things, that you would have to want to be willfully ignorant to focus on any single one. Your problem is humanity and their obsession to sacrifice people’s safety for their feelings. People who put their feelings over your safety are the ones who should be avoided. No need to bring pandas into it.
So, people’s safety is more important than people’s feelings, basically.

Especially when alone in the woods. I feel like many people are glossing over this important part of the question.
It’s not just any random guy you meet at starbucks, it’s a random guy out in the middle of the woods.
Nono, only female safety and men feelings! Read the sign! /s
