Funny Facts About Men

1) Researchers have found that men are four times more likely to sleep naked than women are. Perhaps all that body hair keeps them too warm! Or maybe they just never got around to replacing their Batman pyjamas.

2) The myth of “Man Flu” isn’t actually a myth! Men suffer from diseases more frequently and for longer than women do. A team from the University of Cambridge believe this is because men developed more aggressive and adventurous behaviour at the expense of their immune system. So carry on moaning and groaning!

3) When losing an argument, there’s always arm-wrestling. The average man has 50% more muscle than the average woman. The average woman also has 50% more body fat than the average man, but probably it’s best not to mention that to her!

4) You may think that testosterone is what makes men real men, but actually more testosterone makes men less aggressive. It is in fact a lack of testosterone that increases aggression, almost as much as criticising their football team!

5) The day that always has the most reverse-charge phone calls is Father’s Day. They’ve really got to work hard for that love, don’t they!

6) When ever a drunk guy tells his drinking buddy that he loves him, he could well mean it as men are much more likely to fall in love than women. The average man claims to have fallen in love 2.9 times in their lifetime, compared with just 2.2 times for the average woman.

7) But the romance stops there, as men are more likely to remember the number plate of their first car than the name of the first girl they kissed. Surely that’s proof of men’s ability to prioritize!

8) It seems the quickest way to a man’s heart is by cooking a meal for him…and doing his washing for him, and putting a roof over his head. According to the US Census Bureau, 14% of 25-34 year old men live at home with their parents. Almost twice the percentage of women.

9) Thanks to their refusal to stop and ask for directions when they’re lost, British guys spend an extra 6 million hours of driving each year. That’s a lot of “scenic routes”!

10) Sticks and stones don’t hurt them. Research has shown that fat men are happier than thin men. Though it doesn’t say what percentage of fat, happy men own a Harley!

11) The word ‘testify’ originates from the Roman court, where men would guarantee the validity of a statement by swearing on their testicles. So what happened if the statement was proved not to be true? (We’ll find out for you!)

12) On average a man will spend 140 days of his life shaving. Surprisingly this figure has not reduced with every blade added by razor manufacturers.

13) In 1929, the first nudist organization was founded by three men. You would think the first AGM to sort out the membership problem was called pretty quickly.

14) Surprisingly, the symbol for a male animal or organism doesn’t represent a cue ball wearing a cocktail umbrella. In fact, it represents the shield and spear of the Roman god, Mars.
