Why do men turn into children when they're sick compared to women?

I'm a man. I've had some kind of cold or flu for the past 3 days. I've felt like Mack truck has hit me. I've even felt like my wife should baby me because of it. Get me this, get me that kind of thing.
When my wife gets sick, she might be down for a day and is right back at her routine the next.

Opposite in my house.
My wife is a big ninny and I just want to be left alone when I’m sick.

Cause we have a better immune system (on average) so we don’t get sick as often.
Therefore when we get a virus that puts us out for a while, we make it a big deal.

Women are always “sick”

Nothing turns me into a big bitch like being sick does. It’s so bad my entire family laughs about it. I can be wounded, physical pain, or whatever and be fine. I get a cold and life’s over for me

I don't do it personally because I despise that sort of weakness but ... I think a lot of males in their adulthood, not necessarily men per se, have mommy issues and want to be babied like when their mommies took care of them as children.

Speak for yourself.
My wife gets sick and it’s a two week pity party. I could go around the Minute Clinic licking doorknobs and never get a thing.

I'm about the biggest hardcore redass anyone would ever want to meet.
But I've been sick since Monday and have left the bed one time for long enough to take a shower.
My ribcage feels like I've been sparring Mike Tyson from all the violent coughing and coughing shite up. Constantly moving from chills to fever to sweats.
I don't want medicine. I don't want chicken broth. All I want to do is sleep. When I wake up and feel better it's over.

Men generally refuse to pretend their not sick and keep "pushing through" just so they can tell everyone how much they still do when they are sick.
When we're sick, we're gonna go sleep and recover, most don't want anything except to be left alone.
Yet, the women insist on trying to do 100 things to make you feel better, mostly so they can feel like they did something, but sometimes so you'll get back to helping again sooner.

Just opposite in my house.
When I'm sick I just need to be let alone to hibernate and work through it. I don't need any attention, just keep the fridge, pantry, and medicine cabinet stocked with what I need and leave me alone.
My wife needs to be ta ta'ed and doted over constantly. She whines and cries like it's the end of the world and she will NEVER be better!!
I think it's the mamma's boys who were spoiled on their mamma's tit that can't handle being sick. I hated being babied by my mom even as a kid.
Just let me be and I'll come out of it or I'll die. Either way, I'll handle it in peace.

I'm basically on-call when my fiancé is sick. I don't get sick much but when I do I just want a couple of Gatorade's, a blanket and the remote.

It's because if I admit that I'm sick, I'm really fricking sick. It happens about once every 5 years. I had a 104* fever last time I was really sick.
I get headaches, colds, sinus stuff, etc all year long and never say or do shite about it. My wife's eye twitches and she's popping advils.
This is a such a fricking stupid thing invented by women on Facebook.
Eta: I don't know any men who keep giant bottles of ibuprofen within arms reach 24/7. Women have a whole damn pill cabinet in their purses all the time. Maybe there are some bitchmade men out there who get bedridden by the common cold, but I don't know any of them.

Sounds like you're a pus.

Both my wife and I prefer to just be left alone. If I’m really sick, I’ll sleep on the day bed in my (home) office to be extra left the frick alone and not asked if I’m ok every time I sniffle
