Well, man flu is well known really because men just moan about it. Woman flu just doesnt exist, as women tend to take things in their stride and get on with it. Anyway if a woman got man flu, they might mistake it for a slight itch under their nose, and pay it no heed. The thing with man flu is that the symptoms to the average bloke seem to be a hugely pounding 20 piece drum chorus headace, a nose running so fast it would give Linford Christie a good 100 metre sprint contest, and probably have enough blast to blow out the sun, the chest would be so painful that if you cut of his arm, he wouldn't even notice, and the painful sore throat would be so severe that eating sandpaper would be hardly be given a flinch. Now to everyone else, especially women, he would appear to be a soft wimp of an excuse for a man just trying to get out of a shopping trip because it's cold outside.
I am a man , and I get man flu. I think the medical name for this crippling affliction is a slight cold!

Thought everyone knew that man flu was just the common cold and woman flu was the full blown flu lol. If you'd had a flu jab you wouldn't need to ask in the first place! lol.

Yah it is. I can't get rid of my woman flu. My lawyer says she'll rip me off for half my stuff if I do. I drink plenty of fluids (alcoholic fuids) and take all sorts of pills, but my woman flu is still in the house when I come too.
Hope you have better luck than me.

There is no such thing as 'man' flu, I don't see why it is called as such. I suppose it's something women come up with to make men look like babies and themselves look like troupers but it's just not true. Where I used to work there were just as many flakey women who would go sick with the tiniest little sniffle, and the men (who hardly ever went sick) would muck in, do extra and basically carry them.
