A common stereotype exists that women handle pain better than men-consider the typical comment that 'if men had to endure the pain of childbirth, them would be fewer babies in the world.' On the other hand, men who react strongly to pain from injuries are often chided with comments, such as 'take it like a man' or 'don't be a sissy.'
