New Study Shows Men Are More Scared of Bugs Than Women
I'm not going to say I can personally confirm this ... but I do kill a majority of the bugs in my boyfriend and I's apartment.
According to a new study men are more afraid of bugs than women. I don't think I'm the only girl who was like, "YEP!".
WTVO details -
The OnePoll study on behalf of Zevo found that 64 percent of people are fearful of insects, but it was the men who were more terrified of the creepy crawlers than women. 32 percent of the men saying that they were “very scared” of bugs. Compare that to 22 percent of females who were afraid.
The survey also included a bunch of gender specific random facts as well like who could better identify certain bugs.
So ladies, next time your man makes you kill that bug, just know you're not alone.
