It Turns Out That The ‘Man Flu’ Might Actually Be A Real Thing
Let's face it, guys. When we're sick, we're big babies. We want people to take care of us and we don't want to get off the couch. But now, a doctor in Canada says that there might actually be some science behind it!
According to this doctor, the "man flu" might actually be a real thing. He says that studies show that men suffer more from viral respiratory illnesses because their immune systems aren't as strong as a woman's.
So there ya have it! Science proves that we're not as pathetic as we once thought!
