The "man flu" meme humorously exaggerates the stereotype that men overreact to minor illnesses, like a common cold. It plays on the idea that men become dramatically helpless when sick, often needing extra care and attention. The meme typically contrasts men’s behavior when they’re sick—laying in bed, moaning, and acting as though they have a life-threatening condition—with women powering through illnesses while managing work, chores, or childcare. While lighthearted, it pokes fun at gender dynamics and perceived resilience differences. The "man flu" meme thrives because of its relatability, making it a go-to joke whenever someone (usually a guy) complains about feeling just a little under the weather.
