Fifth of British Women Believe in ‘Man-Flu’

Sorry, British men, the secret’s out. One in five British women believes in something called the “man-flu,” a disease that leaves men prostrate on the couch watching sports, according to a recent survey. The same study also found that 37 percent of the population believes people lose most of their body heat through their head, and a large segment of those surveyed believes you can get square eyes from watching television. "Unbelievably, there are still a lot of misconceptions around how minor illnesses and conditions are caused or prevented," said study leader Mike Smith.
