American Psychological Association's journal Psychology of Men and Masculinity. Hmmm...I thought they didn't care and only studied women in academia. Perhaps we're clawing our way back to relevance, lads.

For years, experts have said that the strong, silent male is not one to ask for help when he's hurt, and therefore at a disadvantage when it comes to getting better. But new research says this might not be completely accurate.

We need a better class of experts...

We just don't endlessly whine about it.

The tenets of traditional masculinity have been said to include the ability to withstand hardship, 'stick-to-it-iveness' and the willingness to see something through to the end, according to the study.

Gee, guess which qualities pay off during rehab?

Experts. Is there anything they actually know?

This I knew. What I still don't know is, can you bottle it, and if so, how much for a case of it?

"Suck it up."
"Shake it off."
"Get over it."

There's a lot to be said for the power of the mind.

Tens of thousands of dollars to study the obvious.

The ridiculous vanity of higher education.

I am emailing this article to my mom, maybe now she will get off my back when I get sick or injured.

31 years old and she still wants to treat me like I'm 7. I love her to death but the nurse in her never stops.

Did this study give any consideration to the possibility that "manly men" are more likely to be in better physical condition when they get injured and that could lead to their faster recovery?

The author is, incredibly, a Harvard professor.

"...this study encourages us to redefine strength and masculinity..."

Why, to help the health care industry? ;')
