Men and women are not sharing the same experience when they get a cold, obviously. While women can do all of their chores just as they normally would, men suffer much, much more and are tied to the bed and completely helpless. In order to raise awareness about the horror that is ‘man cold’, we present you a series of posts that illustrate it perfectly. Let’s start…
ME: My husband has a cold do you have those euthanasia pills?
PHARMACIST: I think you mean echinacea pills haha
ME: No.— hannahannahannah (@MUMSIEesq) May 4, 2017
Hubs and I both have the flu.
Only difference is I'm cleaning the kitchen and he's dying.

Husband has a cold.
I know because he's done nothing but complain about it for two hours straight.
If it doesn't kill him, I might.— Eye of the Toddler (@EyeOfTheToddler) April 1, 2017
I'll be on my deathbed and my husband will still say, "Oh man. I've got the worst cold ever. The. Worst."
