245 - The Man Cold

A couple of days ago Nualaboala sent me a link to an article that I'm adding in the description below. The article is called "Women take more sick days than men" and it's from the Telegraph in the UK. And here's the first paragraph from that article: "Research shows the average man takes a total of 140 days off sick during their career, while women phone in sick 189 times. Despite this, women are more likely to "try their hardest to make it to their desk" and "feel guilty" if they succumb to illness. Male employees, on the other hand, are more likely to be called up by their boss because of their poor track record. Stomach bugs, dizziness and viruses are the most common ailments which strike down the British workforce." So let me get this straight. In Britain male employees take less sick days then their female counterparts yet they are the ones written up and shamed for getting sick in the first place and then being irresponsible enough to not come to work. I didn't think to much about the article over the last few days until I was thinking for a new topic for a mgtow video. And I oddly remembered a video I saw many years ago about the man cold. I'm also adding a link to that video in the description below. I remember watching that video in a room full of about eighty percent women and twenty percent women. The video exaggerates the effects of a cold on a man. I'm sure that men and women feel the pain of getting a cold or the flu the same way. Yet men are shamed for it. We are expected to show up to work even if we can barely stand. Wives shame men for getting sick as well as employers. It's almost like we aren't allowed to feel pain. We are supposed to suck it up buttercup and go about our merry way. When I was younger I completely believed this bullshit about making it to school no matter what and even won the attendance award while I was in middle school.Women Take More Sick Days http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newst...Man Stroke Woman - Man Coldhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbmbM...Truth About Man Coldshttp://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/fea...Man flu is no myth as scientists prove men suffer more from diseasehttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/hea...Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/mgtow/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
