‘Blokes are Different’
“Most people assume that men, by virtue of their economic advantages in society, must be correspondingly healthy.”
Also
We Assume All Men are the Same.

'Men are Different’
'Men's Health comes in all shapes and sizes.
Men have different needs, at different times in their life. They experience different outcomes even for the same problems whether that is their physical health or general wellbeing.
As men we react differently to life issues such as separation, divorce, death, work pressure, unemployment, early retirement, sex, relationships with their partner and kids and as we know we don't all barrack for the same football team......... We Don’t all like blondes …so men are different
Sometimes we need to understand how different men really are and do things a bit different.
