Though there are a lot of women out there who don't go to the doctor till the last minute (guilty as charged) there was a study last year that found that men are less likely to go see a doctor until the last minute. I think part of it is that "weakness" thing - the same impulse that has them not ask for directions, not read the instructions for putting things together, not calling an electrician or a plumber and trying to fix it themselves. I suffer from the same impulse sometimes (witness the mess I've made of our washing machine instead of calling a repair guy. It's ugly, but it works!).
