Men are more decisive than women, according to a new study.
A study of 2,000 people into the nature of decision making and the thought processes behind them found men are twice as likely to make a decision ‘straight away’ than women.
The research asked men and women to evaluate their decisions in life and found women are much more likely to consider the opinions of friends and take time on their choices while men adopt a more immediate process.
A quarter of women said their approach was often to spend a long time mulling over the details of a decision before making...
Men who keep a mobile phone in their trouser pocket could be inadvertently damaging their chances of becoming a father, according to a new study led by the University of Exeter. Previous research has suggested that Radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMR) emitted by the devices can have a detrimental effect on male fertility. Most of the global adult population own mobile phones, and around 14% of couples in high and middle income countries have difficulty conceiving. A team led by Dr Fiona Mathews, of Biosciences at the University of Exeter, conducted a systematic review of the...
The day has come where ‘hipster’, ‘gothic’ and ‘chav’ are all in the past and men’s fashion has had a revolution. It’s no longer the everyday typical suits nor the casual chord trousers on the weekend. Men like to portray a metrosexual look and the wardrobe is becoming more of an imperative object in life.
In the past women’s fashion has dominated shops with all the extravagant designs and excessive styles and the men’s department has either been upstairs, in the corner or non-existent. Now men have equal space in high street...
Survival for testicular cancer has risen by almost 30 per cent in the last 40 years, with nearly all men now beating the disease, according to figures published by Cancer Research UK.
These latest figures show that more than 96 per cent of men now survive testicular cancer in the UK, compared with less than 70 per cent in the 1970s. These improvements are largely thanks to the drug cisplatin, which Cancer Research UK helped to develop.
Around 2,300 cases of testicular cancer are diagnosed each year in the UK and it is the most common cancer in men aged 15-49.

Ask Your Pharmacist Week starts today (5th November), where men will be encouraged to take a more active interest in their health.
A study by the the National Pharmacy Association has found that men are much less likely than women to take advantage of primary care services, including community pharmacies. They are also unwilling to consult a pharmacist face-to-face or seek treatment when sick.
Men visit their GP four times a year compared to six times for women, according to the NPA. On average they visit a pharmacy four times a year compared with 18 for women. More men...
WIth the new John Lewis store open and Christmas just around the corner, men are facing a double whammy.
Research by Confused.com shows that men are paying an additional 26 per cent on top of what they should be for life insurance, all because they don't shop around for the best deal.
Men could learn a lesson or two from women when it comes to shopping around, but it's not just shopping for insurance where men are lagging, they could also do better at buying gifts, clothes and everyday items.
To give the chaps a helping hand, Confused.com asked money-saving shopping...
Parents, especially mothers, find it very hard to be away from their young children for long periods of time. In the same way, kids will often scream their head off when their parents leave them.
What’s the cause of this kind of separation anxiety? I think it’s basically the bond formed between two people who are in a loving relationship. One can’t help but have the other person in mind all the time. The same thing holds true for lovers. Even before my husband and I were married, I could hardly wait for him to call or meet me, and for weekends when I knew we could spend more time...
