man flu

A deprecating term that first appeared in the popular literature in the UK, referring to the purported way in which men respond childishly to a minor cold. While some people believe that men react differently than women to the flu, the current data is weak at best and regarded as unscientific and unreliable.

The term appeared in the British Medical Journal in 2006, not in support of the concept of a specific man flu, but rather criticising an unscientific survey that the general population was quoting in the media.
