MOANING MEN ARE NOT THE BIGGEST FANS OF MENOPAUSAL WOMEN

IFYOU want to bring on a hot flush in any menopausal woman, mention the fresh research from a health supplement company claiming that eight in ten men suffer when their partners go through the change of life.

Diddums! These tragic unfortunates are apparently forced to observe their other halves fanning themselves by the open freezer door, forgetting how to scramble eggs and waking up in the night consumed by nail-biting anguish for something they might have said to someone they haven’t seen since 1975. Please note that the verb is “observe”. These gents are not broiling, freezing, sweating, anxious, piling on hard-to-shift pounds and grappling with seismic mood swings. They are viewing this spectacle. Stop moaning chaps. Grab a palm frond and get fanning.
