What part of the world does this idea come from? Men in general definitely don’t complain about pain more than any other gender in my region.
I have noticed a gender difference between taking a nap, walking it off, and taking drugs. I could probably generalize a bit about who prefers rest, who prefers to grin and bare it, and who prefers to try to medicate it.
I’ve heard this a lot in the US. It’s usually just said in a teasing manner, not seriously in a “going to impact the care you received at the hospital” manner.
It’s enough that people make memes about it at least.
Yes. It’s making fun of people like me who are completely incapacitated for a day when I get a migrane/fever but get hit by some random thing and start bleeding and just shrug it off.
Women get lots of practice being miserable and carrying on with their menstrual cycles, while guys like me generally feel fine for monthes at a time, with normal aches and pains, then just fall apart with the sniffles.
It’s a relatable truth/joke in alot of relationships.
