'Man flu' - the psychological condition by which men claim to suffer more from colds than women - really exists, according to a new poll.
Males take more time off work than women with colds they think are flu, reports the Daily Mirror.
They also moan more, fork out more on remedies and 82% stay in bed until they feel better.
The survey of 2,000 people found 64% of men thought they had flu and took a day off compared with 45% of women.
The poll for Nuts magazine found men take three days to recover and women half that time. November is said to be the worst month for 'man flu' - with one in six suffering.
