It doesn't sounds like you get the point to me. You're leaving out the part the men also kill women too. At an alarming rate in many countries.
Like in my country the number one killer of pregnant women is being killed. And while I admit I don't know the distribution. I suspect women kill other pregnant women far less often than a jealous man or an upset father. Remember that part in To Kill A Mockingbird where the dad strangled his daughter? I do.
I think you're forgetting the part wear the bear doesn't tie you to a tree and force feed you to use you. See the bear will mostly likely leave you alone. Or kill you.
On the other hand. A human male can do FAR worse things than simply kill the woman. Which I will say some men would just kill the woman. And to my understanding of the last 6000 years of recorded history... Men do in fact do worse things than the bear.
Here's a statue dedicated to it!
