Man Flu - it's real !!!
« on: May 13, 2009, 04:38:37 PM »
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1180875/Man-flu-myth-Female-hormones-women-stronger-immune-systems.html

So some men have sponsored some research conducted by men to prove a theory that men suffer more than women when they are ill  evil:

They have then used a charm offensive to say it is because women have stronger immune systems  noooo:

 Researchers found that women have a more powerful immune system than men thanks to their hormones. The study showed that the female sex hormone oestrogen boosts the immune system's first line of attack against bacteria and other invaders.The finding raises the possibility of using oestrogen-based drugs to shore up the male body's defences.

Forget Lemsip guys ...you will have oestrogen in future ....and will feel so much better  eveilgrin:

So you want to pump us full of oestrogen? Have you really considered ramifications Miss D. The hormonal imbalance is one of the reasons why men are terrified of women with PMT....  scared2:

I was the only bloke living in a dorm full of women in nurses accomodation during my student days. Having experienced mass simultaneous PMT I can't think of a word other than terrified that is a better description.  noooo:
