    ... and that they are worse than 'Women Colds." I am also under the impression this means as his bonded life partner, I am obligated to take care of him...


    Is this true? Because I was planning on reading Fan-Fic and comic books today... :confused:

    Well, according to Dr. Pepper, that means it has 10 calories instead of zero.

    You must oblige his every whim and need during this trying time. It was in your vows.

    Stay strong Fish, I'm praying for you.

    He is making whimpery sounds, so I think that means I am being beckoned.

    Men don't handle colds well at all. Believe me.

    I thought the technical term was 'Man Flu'.

    For me, things are really bad when I catch a case of bearditis.

    All I know is that from about 12-17 I had a stuffed up nose and felt like I had a cold for an average of six months a year, and since 17 it's been more like ten, and it's never been all at once. On the other hand I almost never have anything worse, so there's that.

    I think you're supposed to give him a hot beverage or something. Also soup. And fluff his pillows. And read him a story.:)

    EDIT: Read him comics and fan-fic, and show the pictures for the latter!:p

    Men have it rough. Our masculinity is under constant attack, so we have to use "man" as an adjective.

    Woman are immune to "Man Colds." And it's a good thing too, because women would have a 50% mortality rate. They're far too delicate to handle the wrath of an angry Man Cold.

    I've never caught a man cold or a man flu.

    Probably because I've never had sex with a man.

    Yes, unfortunately those dang vows obligate you to care for him.

    Make sure that you have enough kleenex (preferably with lotion) for his delicate nose, hot drinks to soothe is aching throat and a pillow to smother him with when his congested sinuses make him snore.

    He means his genitals have a cold. It happens.


    Watch out for sneezes.

    And you might want to keep him tied up in a shed and just let him play video games until his 'cold' disappears.



    If I'm not mistaken.

    I believe there's actually been a study that found that the "Man Flu" is actually real. According to the study (you can just Google "Man Flu" or something along those lines for the reports), women generally have stronger immune systems and are more able to overcome colds and so forth. Men, apparently, have a generally weaker immune system and endure the symptoms of a cold for longer periods and/or more intensely.

    This. Give him some cold meds and tell him to quit whining.

    I don't think men should pander to this recently female-created term, "man flu".

    Its a cold, or the flu, and only gets a prefix if the World Health Organisation or national equivalent says it does!
