Why is it when men get sick it's the end of the world but when women/mothers get sick we still go to work, we still get up and take care of the kids and the house but for a man it's the end of the world... why are men such babies about being sick? I swear my 3 year old daughter is better than him. She had strept throat and was still running around and playing, she's had multiple ear infections (I've lost count at this point) and she's not even a giant baby about it. She just wants to either be cuddled or just lounge around and watch her favorite show. But no when my husband gets sick I have to drop everything and attend to his every want and need. And for some reason he gets horny and really needy.. urg..
