My wife was recently in a forest with a random bear. The bear walked away.

My mother and sister told a story of meeting a bear on a trail. The bear walked away.

A large percentage of women I have met have a story about a problem with an aggressive man at some point.

Yeah, but you're contrasting 2 bear encounters with hundreds if not thousands of encounters with people. You encounter way more often men than bears and if you want to use the math argument you have to account for this.
