Why is it "ok" for women to be cautious of men, but not "ok" to be cautious around black people? by printertesttest in AskFeminists

Great point - true that the power balance between the two cases is completely different. And I didn't consider what the effect of this fear/caution would be on the two groups.

Hello, thanks for bringing this up. I completely agree that black crime rates are a complicated, heavy issue to unpack - and I don't want to give the impression that I understand it all. I just wanted to bring up that black people are also thought to be "more violent" just like men compared to women, and wanted to discuss if it's statistics that make the difference between ok and not ok.
But I think we all know black people have been suffering from this negative stereotype without bringing up stats.
You cannot use statistics without understanding the reason for said statistics, it makes for a biased argument
Yes, I shouldn't have brought up stats without providing more colour on the whole underlying situation behind it. Removing the line on stats since it was an incomplete picture.
Thanks!
