Transcript: With a picture of a snake in the background, post reads: The chances of a human being bitten by a venomous snake is 1 in 70 thousand.

The chances of a woman being attacked by a man is 1 in 3.

    I personally view it as bringing up a relevant topic in this group, but that doesn’t mean it’s inaccurate to view it as “preaching to the choir”.

      yea, both interpretations are correct.

      That’s your alt account?

      Arr you also Butterfly? I mean, you don’t have to get into that, but is that why you’re speaking for the OP?

        Hey now you’ve crossed the line here. No, Wren and Lady Butterfly are not alt accounts. Women exist on the internet, I know it’s shocking.

          Why do you find women on the internet shocking in an online women’s community?

          I appreciate the attention, but you can let OP speak for herself.
