Hey, I’m on there! Shout-out to my fellow people injured by power tools and household machinery.
This you?
Unexpected Home Improvement reference
It was right up his alley. Was trying to open the package and couldn’t figure out how to get it apart. Decided I needed to level up to the BFK (big fucking knife). The packaging (and the knife) won that battle, but I eventually won the war when I realized the packaging was threaded on my return from the ER. Could have just twisted it. Derp
Men don’t do well on two wheels.
Or women don’t duck with two wheels
Considering how overwhelmingly male every biker group I’ve seen is I’d say it’s more that
They do as good as women on 4 legs it seems….
What on earth are these “Agents acting on muscles or breathing” that women seem to be much more prone to?
People taking too much muscle relaxants.
Lmao, shout out to all my girlies getting hospitalised after huffing too many poppers
My guess was date rape drugs
I assumed that meant “overdose” which is easier to do the less you weigh.
Maybe Botox?
I wonder why obstetrical and gynecologic devices 98.3% female and not 100%… I assume it must be biological gender since it’s NHS data.
Possibly for breast cancer? Men can get breast cancer, it’s just not as common
So… gynecological devices has some amount of males?
Maybe males being treated for post partum depression under obstetrics? Otherwise idk

Medical fetishists are a thing. I think it’s due to kink play with speculums, sounding tools, catheters, and other (gendered) medical instruments.
For men those things would land in a urology/andrology/proctology category.

Yeah, trans men.
Men are dumb and put things in wrong places.
I blame the lack of sexual education in schools, of it was better then more men would understand the importance of a flared base
As soon as I saw cyclist I knew this was the UK.
Huh.
Horse girls are a bigger part of the horse riding population than I thought
In the lord of the rings a lot of the extras on horses are women with fake beards because of this
My girlfriend’s sister has a horse and I refuse to go near it. It’s a two ton object being operated by a pea of a brain, he once got into a panic because his friend was behind him and he couldn’t see him, so he ran around the field madly until he collided with a stationary tree. Oh and he’s scared of blue wheelbarrows, just blue ones, wheelbarrows of any other colour or apparently acceptable.
He has already stood on her foot once.
Horses are fucking creepy.
Right? They walk around on single fingers and are born with weird tentacles over their hooves
If you try to draw a horse based only on its skeleton you would come up with some cthulhu monster.
two ton
What the hell kind of breed is two tons? The heaviest ones I know get up to about one ton, but those are big, heavy working horses, not the average riding horse.
Our icelandic horse has also stood on my foot once, but she’s only about 300kg (600lbs) and didn’t put much of it on that foot before I shooed her off.
Also, she’s super calm about damn near everything.
First encounter with a motorised shear? Eyes wide open for a few seconds, then she’s already out of fucks to give.
Shenanigans trying to craft a costume for her result in a piece of cloth suddenly covering her eyes? Eh, my humans will know what they’re doing. Actually, can I eat that? Nope, apparently not. Lame.The worst she’ll do when something actually does scare her is stand up straight, refuse to move closer and rarely attempt to put a little more distance. She might unexpectedly sidestep a weird object on the roadside, but not so rapidly as to dismount my wife, and she’s never run away in a panic that I know of.
And if you scratch her right, she basically melts. Scratch her ears, she’ll relax her lower lip like she’s losing control of her face muscles. Scratch her butt, she’ll lean into it. Back away, she’ll follow. It’s the only case I’ve ever seen of a horse happily walking backwards.
Just by asking what breed such a horse could possibly be, you’ve exemplified more horse related knowledge than most people possess. Two tons is pretty obviously a guess by someone that doesn’t know a lot about horses or other animals of similar size.
Not much different to how most people would be wrong when estimating the weight of a building, the volume of the ocean, or the quantity of trees on the planet. If it’s something unfamiliar to you, you can’t be expected to be accurate.
You know what, you’re right. I didn’t consider the perspective of people less familiar with the topic. I don’t consider myself particularly knowledgeable, but that doesn’t mean my knowledge is fundamental or ubiquitous.
Kudos to you. Too few are capable of this type of reflection.
When you know a bit about something, it’s always an easy thing to mistakenly presume others to know what seems like the most baseline of information about the subject matter.
As it is for horses, only three breeds came to my mind. Clydesdale, carousel, and of course this genuine two ton beauty.

It’s a common human blind spot. I see no reason to get defensive about it. Better to admit it and improve than double down on a pointless battle with nothing to win.
I know of a lot of things that I don’t know a lot about, which makes what knowledge I do have seem paltry by comparison. Exchanges like this are a handy reality check. Ideally, we can all walk away smarter for it.

Shire Horses, Brabanter (a Belgian breed, but I don’t know the English name) are the ones that I can think of, but I know there’s also some French breed up there. Don’t think any of them can hide a crew of crafty Greeks in their belly though. “Why is this taxidermied horse’s belly still moving?”
Consider yourself lucky. We were digging the ground with shovels near a horse park where they had a competition. A river separates the two areas.
They asked us to stop because the horses were freaking out.
Maybe they include elephants in the “horse” category?
Maybe they are just a lot worse at it.
What is a non-treatment procedure?
I would assume preventive medicine and the like.
Edit: Just checked, it also includes any kind of tests.
the psychiatric one is interesting.
It’s a bit more taboo for men to seek that care, for one.
This is for being admitted to the hospital though, not counselling. Inpatient psychiatric care is pretty serious stuff.
i seeked out care because i knew what was going on with me was not normal. when i was there, i saw one women in the holding area, and one man having a break with secuirty around him. when i was admitted to the psych ward on the floor without maximum security, id say that biologically born males out numbered biologically born females
Howevever, i have been the hospital for other things, and everytime i have gone to the ER, it’s been someone who identifies as a female 99% of the time who i see is waiting to goto the psych hold. so its interesting to see that reflected in the statistics.
I expected more foreign object in rectum

My interpretation was drugs which are CNS depressants or paralytics. A benzo overdose presumably falls into this category, maybe also opioids. It can’t include alcohol though, because people drinking until paralytic is not an overwhelmingly female phenomenon (I believe it is currently pretty even)
We’ve got to improve those male pregnancy exam numbers, women are winning!
the gays are trying their hardest and will keep trying to impregnate their partners but the government keeps tying to stop them for some reason.
Because pregnant men would be pretty OP.
Brand new sentence.
Interesting, especially with the numbers on the right. Good chart.
I feel like it needs more obviously only male ones to counteract the obviously only female.
Where’s testicular cancer? Prostate? “Dick stuck in [object]”? You know that last one has to have at least 1000 entries.
at least 1000 entries.
Object stuck in arse is the classic, if the anecdotes of my medical professional friends are anything to go by. Although maybe that’s already covered by “Assault, blunt object”
“Don’t threaten me with a good time” eh?
Females have arses too…
I’m not sure that’s in dispute?
They don’t poop, why would they have one?
If girls had buttholes they’d also fart so definitely fake news!
That’s right. Nature don’ts make stuffs for no reason’. That’s the beauty of it
You’re saying that it’s apparently a male only issue if you think it should be on the men’s side.
Would it be surprising, no, but it’s probably gonna be a pretty even split.
I would put a lot of money on it not being an even split. The stories I’ve heard from hospital colleagues always involve men, to the point where one nurse I know wanted to add a plea in a local Facebook group to ask men to stop shoving household objects up their arse.
I think women have the wherewithal to use, or have easier access to, proper tapered toys. Men see a tube shaped object and go “yep, that’ll do”.
The hospital admissions are for removal of stuck foreign objects, not which gender likes bum fun the most.

Some of this definitely comes from stigma, it’s relatively normal for women to have sex toys, regardless of relationship status, but it’s seen as sad and loser/gooner behavior if a man has sex toys. Add in inconvenience of penetrative sex toys really only being effective for prostate play for men (whereas women can use penetrative sex toys both to simulate vanilla PIV sex and for any amount of increasingly kinky fantasies) and you have the perfect recipe for horny men curious about ringing that male G-spot using whatever seems relatively safe and appropriately sized
37 times more men than women 😂
Cool. Doesn’t mean you need to be a dick about it.
You’re also an ass for trying to funnel it under “assault”, not funny. Just ignorant while trying to make a joke at men.
Love that the name-calling starts once I’ve provided evidence to back up my claim. This is called an ad hominem attack, or narcissistic rage, in case you ever want to bring it up with your therapist. I don’t know how old you are, but it’s common in children, where they’re not emotionally equipped to manage the frustration of being proved wrong.
May the internet never change.
My guess is it just doesn’t usually get you admitted to the hospital. They can usually help you out in the ER and send you on your way.
It’s probably also “foreign object in body” and covers all holes, so the females are “watered” down maybe? More options, less results in each, common data issue.
I’d be zero percent surprised to learn that men get stuff stuck up their arse more than women.
I live in a town which has a hospital that supports a large geographical area and as such is a major employer in the town. Many of my friends work there.
It’s always men.
You know, a lot of women online complain about the idea that men are more horny than women, but I’d say they need to get their lost object in anal cavity requiring surgical removal numbers up if they’d like to differ.
Fake news.
hi, husband here
i am the arse
agents acting on muscles and breathing? 🤔
Allergic reaction to substances (agents) causing paralysis, asphyxiation, shock, etc
why would this be a “female” reason to be admitted to the hospital?
Someone above explained it better, but women are more likely to have unwanted and even dangerous side effects from medications because most meds were only ever properly tested on white men.
Because guys are too fucking dumb to go to the hospital for something like not being able to breathe. I’m sure the statistic couldn’t breathe, tried to walk it off, regained consciousness the next morning in a ditch next to road, just went home, is probably just as full of guys as the other statistic was full of girls.
The men just rub a little dirt in their lungs
Drug effects. Prescription or recreational
So more men do drugs but women OD way more?
Well it’s side effects. So a lot of people don’t know this but a lot of prescription drugs only ever ran trials on white men. As you probably know. Men are typically physically larger than women and have a different muscle to fat ratio.
So it’s actually more common for women to have side effects from a lot of these drugs because the dosage is not adjusted for women.
Also. Toxic masculinity. Men are told not to complain about things like this. Even though they should. Men have a shorter life span and visit doctors less, coincidence?
wondering why that would be a primarily “female reason” for admission, then - wouldn’t drugs that impact breathing or muscles be administered or accessible to men as well?
Someone else suggested date rape drugs, that seems like a possibility - but is it typical for date rape drugged victims to end up in the hospital such that “agents acting on muscles and breathing” becomes the reason for admission? Just doesn’t make sense, tbh

To be fair, white males are the default of humanity…
/s (damn humanity and their conceited blindspots!!)
Even drugs for kids have mostly just been tested on adult white men.
They say it’s unethical to do drug testing on kids. So instead we just give millions of kids drugs that were never tested on them.
Geez, it’s madness isn’t it?
It was just a massage I didn’t mean to hurt them!
