This reminds me of a meme that originated on somethingawful.com, you don’t know who you could be talking to online, and its a bear. Man I miss that site.
A women wrote an article about how women are afraid of the possibility of male strangers attacking them, comparing it being stuck in the woods with the bear.
And, as is tradition, instead of actually reading the article a bunch people took it to mean that she would literally rather be attacked by a bear rather than a man.
Where are all these “women choosing bears” memes originating?

I dunno. I haven’t seen many bears using Twitter lately.

I’ve seen bunch of women explaining how they’d feel less threatened with a bear. So I don’t think anyone read it, everyone just ran with the premise.
It’s rage bait, that’s why it’s spreading. Do your part, downvote and move on.
I think this may be the origin? https://www.tiktok.com/@screenshothq/video/7356208240008498465
Although this person claims to be the one who started it: https://www.tiktok.com/@callmebkbk/video/7363362723855371566
Not sure about the article or the tweets but I thought they came later than the tiktoks
People still somehow paying attention to Twitter
