Stress - MEN
Ok so has anyone ever wondered why it is the women r soooooo much better at dealing with stressful situations than men?
Why women are known to be able to take everything in hand and sort it out while a man goes to pieces? - in a crisis for example.
Say a kid falls over or hurts themselves, who do they call for?
...Mum exactly, very rarely do they call for their dad, and its because women are so much better in these situations.
How about nurses? The people who have to deal with the patient on a personal level because the doctor can't cope. And the vast majority of nurses are?
Women - ok so i havent proved my point yet, but read on for some scientific evidence
Well apparently "Scientists believe men may be naturally more inclined to suffer from stress, even before birth.
Research carried out at the University of Cambridge, UK, suggests men may be predisposed to stress because they release more of the stress hormone cortisol than women. Infact twice as much as females.
"We have known for a long time that men and women respond differently to stressful conditions," said Dr Dino Giussani, who led the study. "However, this work also suggests that males may be more predisposed than females to overreact to stressful conditions later in life."
A recent study suggested that every day around 270,000 people take time off work for stress-related illness. Absenteeism is estimated to have cost the UK £10.2bn last year.
so by law of averages you blokes out there are costing us a whole lot of money each yr!!!
interesting huh?

OHHHHHHH woooooow wait a SECOND... there is NOOOO way woman can handle stuff better then men. You have GOT to be kidding me.. ALLLLL of the trama cases that i know... YES ALLL of them, are woman. My mom for example will freak out over the DUMBEST things in the world. Simple simple SIMPLE things that can be solved VERY easily. AND... just to pretend like this is ALLL ok and dandy, they blame it on PMS.. ok.. granted PMS is bad.. not that i really know, cause i dont BUUUUUUUT, they use that so men CANT say anything back, because we KNOW better... SO no.. i totally 199% disagree with your opinion.. sorry.. I still think ur reall nice and great though!!!!
hmmmm, could this story become any more false?? i think not.
amen ballyhoo... i AGRREEEEEE
I don't know if i agree totally with this story. besides, £10.2bn might SOUND like a lot of money, but only one person on this entire site actually knows how much it is! it might not even buy you a pack of wrigley's for all we know.
£10.2 Billion, 10,200,000,000,000 is approx = $15,000,000,000,000, im guessing like fifteen thousand billion cos you have a different billion to us.
ew, all these guys are just not facing the TRUTH! haha good story! :)
but yes def a great story!!
umm, honestly (sorry girls) i might have to agree with the guys, just cuz my mom is paranoid & freaks out about things... but then again, my dad does that in other situations...so, i think its pretty even... some sorts of stresses men can handle better, others women can handle better.
The reason most men arent nurses is cause we dont like to hear people whine. Good you broke your leg, set it, put it in a cast and be done with your day. But thats not how it goes, ohhhhh my leg, im a gimp ohhh ohh ohh. So thus we do not make good nurses.
sure we stress.......and we stress different from women, some individuals stress more than others--men or women. I think that statistics can be made to say anything, and you can find as many lies as you want on the internet. Not that this is a lie, but I think it's unreliable data, because men and women cannot be compared. Jehovah made women as a compliment (or suppliment even?) to complete man. therefore, they cannot be exactly the same.....which is what you need to compare things. If I were to compare the orangeness of 2 fruit that were grown in the same soil, from the same tree, with equal conditions.....well, it'd only be fair that they were both oranges. But if one's an apple and one's an orange and they were grown on different trees in the same soil, with the same amount of water and sunlight....it's an impossibility to compare. If I haven't confused you yet, or even if I did, it all goes back to men and women are too different to compare.
Ha ha this is so great, i was like sure this is gonna cause some differences of opinions but not like this muah ha ha ha rofl
I cant vouch for the authenticity of this report but the university of cambridge is the most highly regarded in england!
I didnt mean to offend just thought it was interesting even if my examples r a bit dodgy (ie the exclusion of pms!!!)
Hey, PMS is a prevelent problem, which affects both men and women. Men have to DEAL with the women when they have it... and THAT sometimes is TERRIBLE.. specially... with 2 or more.. MAN.. insanity
Yah 1 is bad enough but when they have it in packs. RUN!!!
yea man... i know.. i have a mom and and a sister.... when its that time, i lock the door to my room or work alot more
it affects men? speak for yourself there
Wow thats a very insightful reply. I agree with that you really cant compare the two. Maybe u can compare 2 different men or women from around the globe but not this.
thanks. I'm a little annoyed by the unsensitive responses of some of these "men". Sure, they may be joking but they can be a little more tactful (not that I'm the most tactful person to walk the earth).
i hope ur not grouping me in this "unsensitive responses" catagory, cause i am anything BUT insensitive. All i am saying is that its i dont believe woman are able to handle stress better then men. That is not from a "macho" point of view or a hater point of view, im just stating what i see.
hahahha, as performed in this response. hahahah. "men".
exactly, ballyhoo, exactly
ah whatever guys, dont hate on me, i dont see any of the "girls" complaining....
what a gay story. men are better at everything.. geez
the only thing a woman can have that a man doesn't..
is body karate
a body so nice it's like a kung fu kick to the head
body karate
What in the world are you talkin about?!?
One thing Men have that most women dont have as a stress relief is full contact sports, such as football, hockey and of course rugby. Thank goodness we have those things.
women don't need them...they release stress in a totally different way
By screamin on guys and anything else that moves?
lol, or talking to their friends about it, or whatever
i'm talking about BODY KARATE
Do you teach it?
body karate can not be taught, only inborn, or sought after in a life long, yet worthless, endeavor.
Is body karate the form where you through yourself at cars driving on the highway?
no no no , a womans body can only be body karate.. so hott that it knocks you out like a chop to the neck
Ahhhhh now i got ya! Haha thats sweet.
i think its funny, that all the men that are hating in these comments... are single.
Some people do choose to be single.
choice out of necessity
In american English please!
Oh im sorry was that too complicated for your stress filled mind to comprehend ;-)
yea i choose to be single
Uhh no thats what the girls say you are gonna be!
im not single.... I got someone that is actually VERY awesome when it comes to stress.. she is AWESOME, and handles it very well.
Your mom? She is very awesome i assume? In capitals so u really MEAN it!
muah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaa
yo man, dont be dissin my momma... I PITY DA FOO!
yo man i was NOT dissin ur mamma come one what kinda cretin do u take me for - i hope no offense was taken
haha.. i wasnt mad at all, i was just joking with magnum... no offense taken....
i might sorta have a crush on katiedid... she is SOOOO cute!!
rofl - oh thats too short lol
whats too short? my last commment?
no rofl was, so i stated the fact it was too short to make it longer lol
oooh... i gotcha, ugg.. this one was too short too... katiedid is GREAT!
ha ha now instead of having useless short comments we're gonna have useless short comments + useless add ons to increase its length lol
i KNOW...... its insanity isnt it?
It sure is.......Ian are you reading this?
ian reads EVERYTHING... nothing gets by him....
i sure hope so, altho the fact the u r him seems to have passed him by :-D
ahhh.. its a good idea ian... i think...
Change it to 10 characters!
15 sounds good.. makes people write something meaningful
even though what you just wrote isnt
but what you wrote was even MORE not meaningful.. but hey thats ok, you still rock!
ow dont let matt here ya say that! <>
im extremely confused...
and why was his comment not meaningful?
b/c so many people have said that exact same thing
what exact same thing?? Im lost.........
I think we're off the topic
I agree... this was ALL about katie before.. hahahahaha
well... a good percentage of the people on this site are single
Yeah, and there is something wrong with that?
not at all. that's why i mentioned it
you cant have a comment that's more than 15 characters??? i dont understand. why is that? is it still like that? this is actually just a test.
lol and i was just about to answer it :-D - a test for what?
yea only 15 or more characters.. because anything less is just meaningless
I hear that!!!!!!!
Yeah i just had to add some fun to this. 15 words or less only stops people from saying yup or cool. However you can easily babble more then 15 characters that are 10 times more useless then yup.
yup....................
oh i see... it has to be AT LEAST 15 characters
yep 15 characters
hey everyone! I think I'm getting dumber just reading all these worthless comments, hahaha hahahah...oh....what was I saying? Oh, yeah, so the second guy ducked! hahahahaha hahah (do you see how the dropped IQ from reading all these comments has effected my brain?!?)
man...do you need any help?

just cuz you knew i was laughing :-D
HAHAHA! how'd you guess?! tinner, i feel like i havnet talked to you in a year! where are youuuuuuuuuuuu? haha
Congrats Tinner on #100!!!
hmmm - side point - how come we havent been affected by writing these comments? - or maybe we half

I see, its almost as bad as reading that Chameleon Story...have read that one yet??
you mean the kids book - if so that was like my favvvvvv one as a kid
No, I mean this Chameleon Story
i see what u mean, fascinating story though, just as a side point did anyone else read that book as a child?
This story kind of reminds me of this joke my dad told me last night: how do you turn a dishwasher into a snowblower? hand her a snow shovel. get it? that's totally WRONG. shoveling snow is definately a GUYS job. yah HARD LABOR for men, easy stuff for us. hehe. just kidding.
LOL, umm i use a mechanical snowblower cause there fun and stuff.
oh don't get me started on femal jokes.. i have tons.. and i love them
here's one :
What do you do when your dishwasher stops working ?
You SMACK HER
:-O i am shocked brother ;-)
Actually that means nothing coming from a man who can't even spell female. There's an e at the end buddy. :)
How about this one:
Why are womens feet so small??
Cause they fit better under the sink!
Och - i dont have small feet rofl
How about this one?
A blonde and a brunette jump off a building...who lands first?

Thanks Man...someone supports my humor here!! You ROCK more rock supastar!!
Haha, that was rough.
im still reeling from the blonde brunette joke rofl
LOL...that reminds me of this joke...
A blonde goes to get her hair done at a salon and she is wearing head phones w/ a discman and she walks in and sits down, she is all ready to get her hair done, so the hair dresser says: "Can you take your headphones off, I need to finish your hair do" and the blonde was like, Im not sure if Im going to be ok...the hair dresser-now a little stumped-said "You'll be fine, trust me" then the blonde proceeded to remove the headphones, and after the hairdresser was done, she asked, "HOw does that look?" but the blonde never responded, In fact she was dead...the hair dresser was in shock, and didnt know what happened. When she looked a the CD Player, it had Bush in it and the song that was playing on repeat was "BREATH IN, BREATHE OUT"
I love that one...LOL!!!!
come on guys.... these comments have NOTHING to do with the story. STOP IT!!
that is officially the worst blond joke ever created in human history.
ha ha well that was the only one i laffed at and im blonde - ok so maybe that says something lol
Thank You, Thank you...my job here is accomplished then :)...plus everything here has to do with the story!!!

Thanks Nine9Star for the support, at least someone cares for me here on eZabel besides rock supastar....I truly appreciate it!!
ha ha ur welcome :-D
Nine9Star, if you need any more support or help with anything, Im here for you...this way I can return the favor :) (btw nice pic!)
awwww thanks hun, ur the sweetest, and im always here to stick up for you :-D and if you ever need a listening ear - urgh the pic was pretty crappy sorry rofl
The pic wasnt bad, it was cute...even though it looks like a mug shot :) Thanks for the listening ear, I may need to borrow it sometime...I may have a lot to talk about and you will be the unlucky one that has to hear it :)
ha ha oh yeah didnt i tell u i was wanted in every county throughout the land??? lol
Feel free to borrow it any time you like :-)
Really, wanted in every country...maybe I will send your pic to the FBI for a reward :) LOL
ha ha yeah im worth millions, a sighting of me can gain anything up to £300,000!
WOW 300,000 pounds!!! (sorry I dont know how to do the pound symbol, how do you do it??)
ha ha i think ur keyboard is diff to ours, we do shift 3
shift 3 = # symbol cause our keyboards are leeter then yours!
leeter? hmm ours is just the buttom on the bottom left on the right shift key for that hash
leeter...whats leeter?? I wonder if we could configure the letters on the keyboard here to get the pound sign...hmmm
ha ha, dont think so maybe you have it on the 4 or like on one of the keys on the right of the letters ££££££££££
4 = $
5 = %
6 = ^
7 = &
8 = *
9 = (
0 = )
elite = eleet = leet = l33t
I still dont get it...and for 9 ....I dont think we have the pound symbol at all....that makes us cooler !!
Nope i dont get your strange logic either and as for G WHATEVEEEEER
don't worry, man, i get it. and for you other guys, it's "hacker" speak, for "elite". except, when they say they are "elite hackers" they have to prove their point by typing it as "leet hax0rs", among other variations. Hence: elite = 31337 = l33t = leet
ohh ian you so nice cause there was no way i was gonna explain that too him :) Now we gonna see scrollin marquee leet speak!
oh so the 31337 = eleet? and then progresses to l33t, i gotcha
no l33t is a older progession to the new stance of 31337 where u sp34k l1k3 th1s 4nd stuff
ooooh r19h7, n1c3
the g doesnt get replaced :P and now your scaring me!
no
thats my version :P
the 9 for a g is completely legal.
evil JOey - ur so cruel, thankuuuuuuuu Iannnnnn!!!
whaaaat? i was supporting you, nine. i said that the use of the 9 in place of a g is fine. there's no rule that says what characters you have to use in place of others, hahah, it's just a funny way to type. the more cryptic you can make it, the better, and if you can use all kinds of extended characters that you can't even type on the keyboard without using special keycodes, then you're even more l3e+.
lol i am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo soory, everything i said was intended for u i thought u said illegal :(
oops, repetition for emphasis - i love you ian :(
wow u can type ascii arent you special :P i can do that too cause im lee„© too! actually im not really nor do i ever wannabe, ill stick to boring old me
+h4+ 15 r34l 5w33+...anyone get that...???
Dude stop before you hurt yourself if you already havent.

Hey Ian, where did you learn all this stuff?? Hey 9 why dont you know this already, ms. computer learner??
because my course is crappy, im actually hopefully transferring nx yr to a better course
Where'd I learn all this stuff? Dude, I'm a geek, it's my lifeblood!
I have reviewed the 9 as a g and i think i may allow it for now
Magnum, I am really thankful of your approval!
erm he was talking about that hacker lang thing when i used a 9 instead of a g and said i couldnt
I know...I was there for that one...silly!!
lol its just u said u were thankful when it was me he gave the bashin too 4 using it
o I c ... I was just thanking him for oking it...thats all, that way you know Im on your side...
