How on earth are you calling my comment gaslighting? I merely pointed out that both of our examples are a single person‘s data point, and we cannot draw broad conclusions from them.
- dheera 5y agoI don't think being chased by packs of dogs on several dozen instances in at least 5 countries counts as a single data point. Maybe dogs hate the way I smell and love the way you smell but that doesn't make it right. I do carry defenses (rocks, pepper spray) to deal with the situation and avoid injury but having to be on guard for dogs at every second and ready to pull out these things on a moment's notice is NOT a pleasant way to cope.
- WhitneyLand 5y agoI said it’s a single person‘s data point. And it is. You’re hypersensitive on this issue. Clearly you know the math and the statistics to know what one persons experiences mean to drawing conclusions. I respect your wish not to feel threatened and I tried to show that, no need to make incorrect replies.

- trentgreene 5y agoI'm an American dog lover, and was surprised when all of my Vietnamese-family-by-marriage voiced similar perspectives. Stray dogs were a serious, common threat that could kill you.
