I tell my husband that this is all because of testosterone poisoning. When I'm sick I don't have the luxury of moping around and complaining. I still have kids to care for and businesses to run. In general I think that women are more likley to take something to make things manageable and move on with their day. It's not weakness to need medicine or rest. I swear men are so silly sometimes. Of course there's the other side of the coin when they are really hurt and limp around grimacing saying, "I'm fine. I just twisted/jammed/stubbed... it." I'm convinced they have a secret plan in which this is done to make us (women) crazy. BTW, the kids are in on that plan too.
