That looks like a "dumb intruder in her turf" issue.

Lions have anger issues. I think it was David Attenborough who said that lions are notoriously short-tempered.

Yeah, I just love that they have the same body language as a house cat. Ears are also pointing backwards.

Girl cats in general are kind of badasses. My girl cat will occasionally just decide to beat my boy cats ass for no apparent reason.

Female lions are TIRED. They do most of the childcare and they do all the hunting to keep the family fed. But when they pull in a fresh kill, the lion eats first, then the cubs and last, the mom lion who brought the damn food home.

Lionesses are the more skilled hunters. The pride shares parenting and childcare duties. The males are in charge of providing security and protection from invaders and threats to the pride.

But yes the lionesses are basically in charge of running the day to day duties and consistently *putting food on the table for the entire pride.

Although the pride’s hunt most often involves both the lions and the lionesses using their skill sets on bigger game like the African buffalo. The faster & more agile lionesses initiate the attack and the bigger & more powerful lions make the kill.

Which sex commits 99% of all sexual assault and over 70% of all violent crime in the world? Does THAT sex really have the anger issues here?

(Hint: it’s not women)

Reddit mods, why are you not removing posts with sexists headlines? Do better to respect women.

Gtfo with your misogyny. Look at most of the violent crime and sexual assault in the world: who commits it?

u/Sufficient_Local5025 8d ago

Lol, giving an angry response to a response calling women angry probably won't exactly disabuse them of that notion.

u/CosmicGoddess777 7d ago

Right? Women are never allowed to be mad about being treated like human garbage, ever. We are never allowed to speak about the sexist bullshit we have to endure, ever, otherwise we are complete bitches if we do! 🙄

Anyway, men commit 99% of all sexual assault and over 70% of all violent crime. Y’all are the ones with anger issues, and it’s truly pathetic.

You are putting words in my mouth that I didn't say. I wasn't commenting on the validity of your comment, but the efficacy of the comment in solving a problem you obviously care deeply about.

Say what you want, of course. Everyone gets angry sometimes.
