Her next partner.
Choose wisely.

Which man?

OP posts:

Male partner or son.

GreenPoms · 28/12/2025 20:00

A man. The point is, we can’t tell which are the bad ones until it’s too late. Therefore, any is potentially dangerous

mynameiscalypso · 28/12/2025 20:00

I’d say the man/men that they have a child with.

Could be anyone. But who commit the most murders? Your immediate thoughts is.....

Pavementworrier · 28/12/2025 20:01

Son

Sneesellsseashells · 28/12/2025 20:01

The men in her life.

Bears 🤣🤣

A known male, of course.

Bluepurpleraindisco · 28/12/2025 20:01

An abuser you don’t always realise until your bonded and swept into the whirlwind and

Ineedanewsofa · 28/12/2025 20:03

Statistically, her husband which is sad and terrifying

3luckystars · 28/12/2025 20:04

It’s her husband. He has the power to really hurt her physically and mentally.

I heard that one about the bear or a man in the woods, which would you rather. Well a bear won’t rape and torture you, he would just kill you.

helpfulperson · 28/12/2025 20:04

husband/partner

tinybeautiful · 28/12/2025 20:05

Her stepfather? Assuming woman as in female rather than adult. If adult, her partner.

LamentableShoes · 28/12/2025 20:05

"Just" John.
You know the guy. Gets involved in various groups, acts outside of social boundaries, doesn't really like hearing "no" but that's "just John, it's just how he is" and everyone excuses it.

Then the boundaries aren't really enforced, and the next Just John is accepted. And the next, until someone takes advantage of the eroded boundaries and someone is hurt.

FrostyFlo · 28/12/2025 20:06

The one that kills her !

Which statistically a known to her male .

Husband or partner.

This turned out to be true in my case sadly.

Never again.

For a child its a stepfather or father.

Basically any man that has close access to a female.

Netcurtainnelly · 28/12/2025 20:12

Any man in her life she comes across as a child. Could be brother, father, grandad neighbour, family friend.
Men are dangerous long before a woman reaches adulthood.

wheresmymojo · 28/12/2025 20:18

Her father or stepfather or partner

It’s so tedious when an OP starts a threads like this and then doesn’t post. It makes the whole question feel so disingenuous.

Streetissoquiet · 28/12/2025 20:23

Just one specific person..so we can’t really say a man.
The first thought I had was the right answer. It was interesting how the other man in the podcast couldn’t come up with an answer really and how the majority of women do instinctively know
