    What is man flu? Genuinely curious, I always thought it was just a kinda tongue-in-cheek razz. Have you experienced differences while/after transitioning?

        Still sucks less than periods, though.

        I’m thoroughly convinced that the reason women tolerate the flu better than men is that they’re simply more used to feeling like shit every once in a while and just putting up with it. If you get periods every month, then feeling a little sick from a cold/sore throat is not a big deal in comparison.
