Women when sick stupid vs men when sick stupid

Please note: this is about the sick stupid phenomenon, or when a person doesn’t have a healthy reasonable reaction to not feeling well. There’s plenty of people of both sexes capable of acting reasonably.

Woman

Partner: Are you sure you’re okay? You aren’t eating anything and you’re pale as a ghost.

W: I’m fine! Don’t worry!

P: Umm, you’re bleeding now...we should get you to the hospital.

W: *coughs for 5 mins* I’m fine...*passes out

Man

M: It hurts like hell! Everything is broken!

P:...it’s a hangnail and some sniffles.

M: Bring me my will!
