When PMS & GYN medication heal men

Warning: Do not try this at home, always consult a medical professional!

Another post in our Labels-are-Crap series.

A male friend with a bad headache and back pain was handed a pink and white pill by a female friend: this will help.

He took the pill and felt better soon afterwards.

When he asked was this a PMS pill, she responded with a confirming smile.

Another male friend had a fungal infection and a woman friend gave him a cream with a big label "GYN vaginal fungicide".

The infection was gone after a few days.

Before you assume some rare gender disorders or incorrect use of the terms "male" and "female", we would like to reassure you that no such issues existed. The men were standard XY-males, the women regular XX chromosome gals.

Other than the gender mix, these episodes have more in common.

In both cases, the men needed help, and the women solved the problem with admirable efficiency.

In both cases, the men were gracious enough to accept help. The male who overcame the "GYN vaginal fungicide" label must have been either quite desperate or not your average male. We do not know which.

The ladies looked beyond the packaging, focusing on the ingredients of the medication instead.
