That's a valid choice and valid reasons.

It is a hypothetical, after all.

I choose the bear because I've been around bears and know I can generally expect to be left alone by them.

My expectation when I run across a bear is not that it might want to harm me or harass me or threaten me.

That is my expectation when I run across random men. And also my experience.

My choice is also valid. It's still a hypothetical.

If you didn't experience the overwhelming shame that usually leads to survivors becoming suicidal, you probably have insights that could help a lot of people. Same if youve managed to avoid addictions and spirals. I hope you're sharing that info. Lot of people hurting post rape out there.
