  • In high school, I once got to tour the zoo with zookeepers guiding and taking us back in the more private spaces.

    (Standing 2 feet away from a 500 pound still-growing tiger is a memorable experience. Especially when the keeper reaches through the grate to pinch the sleeping fella’s toe bean.)

    One of the exhibits we got more in depth was this endangered wild horse, where they were part of a breeding program.

    The zookeeper was laughing his ass off as a dad was trying to explain what the horse was doing (rocking back and forth…) to his kids.

    When the family left, the zookeeper turned to us, and apologized and said “the stallion is masturbating.”







  • Even if this was a conclusive study (sounds like there’s some issues there with selection and methodology,)….

    This is probably because women are more likely to be harassed/assaulted/raped/mugged/etc.

    Other vulnerable groups (trans, immigrants, etc) are probably are also scanning and maintaining better situational awareness.

    It’d be nice to be able to walk down a street without making other people uncomfortable because men in general are less assholish than bears.
