  • Depends on location, but I don’t think I’m too bad.

    • To the nearest convenience store (more than that, really; a drug store and mini grocery store): 400m
    • To the nearest chain supermarket: 2km
    • To the bus stop: 100m (but the bus doesn’t go many places
    • To the nearest park: 600m (a small park, a much larger one 2km away)
    • To the nearest *big* supermarket: 6km
    • To the nearest library: 2.5km
    • To the nearest train station: 2km for local rail, like 25km for rare intercity trains

    then you’d know it’s not about you.

    It absolutely is. You are saying no man, myself included, is safe. That no matter what good we might do individually, we will always be viewed as monsters. Can you not see why men find that hurtful?

    We picked the Gros Michel (before it got decimated by Panama Disease) and now the Cavendish because they can be mass grown, harvested before they are ripe, shipped around the world with minimal special handling, be ripened locally, and can survive all that without getting blemished.

    While there are plenty of other bananas, really only those varieties could do that. Bananas cost less than a buck per pound. Other varieties would have to be shipped by air with special handling and cost many times more.
