Anyway, if I may move onto a topic of far greater international significance for a sec - man flu.
I’m a person who rarely gets sick and when I do I can usually push through without any problem.
Anyway, a couple of weeks ago I was feeling very unwell. Ended up getting a blood test which suggested a virus and a chest x-ray which showed a lung infection. Just given antibiotics and told to get a few days bed rest.
It was at this bed rest stage where it became abundantly clear to me that my wife was philosophically opposed to the concept of me getting the rest I needed and would make if difficult for me to do so.
It got to the point where I literally considered exaggerating my symptoms just so I could convince her that I really did need some rest. Then I thought hmmm - man flu.
So, my question is, to those guys out there that have been accused of having man flu before, do you think you genuinely suffer from flu symptoms more than women? Or is it more a case of trying to deal with your significant other making it difficult for you to get the rest you need (and which you let her get when she needs it)? Or something else entirely?
