Man or Bear?? This is the viral hypothetical question of whether a woman would rather choose the bear to be alone with in the woods versus a man. The bear serves as a metaphor for the perceived safety of an animal that acts predictably, even if dangerous, compared to the unpredictability and potential danger of a man in a vulnerable situation. This seemingly simple choice reveals a deep-seated fear and distrust of men due to the prevalence of violence and harassment women experience in their daily lives. Women are constantly adapting their daily behaviors to ensure their safety, with every decision involving a “what if” moment, while men walk about their days without a fleeting thought for their own safety. Choosing the bear is a way for women to voice their concerns and experiences, hoping to make men understand the everyday realities of living with the threat of male violence. It's a call for men to acknowledge the problem and work towards creating safer environments for women. Sadly, it seems a vast majority of women would choose the bear. It is far past time for society to rectify this injustice and inequality. And yeah, for the record, as sure as I know that a bear shits in the woods, I would sure as shit choose the bear. 

 

Are you Team Bear? Perhaps you are 100% Mama Bear who channels that bear energy in defense of yourself, your loved ones, and on behalf of the innocents? This is the soap for you!

 

Our Choose the Bear soap design is a realistic landscape design depicting a brown bear walking on a grassy knoll beside a running stream, the shadows of evergreens looming in the background under a clear blue sky. We've scented this bar in a sophisticated woodsy ensemble of invigorating woodland air, heavily fragrant with soul-warming chai spices - warm ginger, cinnamon, and cardamom, zingy peppercorn, and hints of anise. Base notes of resinous fir and sticky sweet honey are a bear's favorite treat. Grounding and comforting! 

 

Approx 4-4.5oz bar

Handcrafted soap will continue to evaporate water and lose weight over time. This makes for a finer, harder, and longer lasting bar.
