john_kimble Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I know this is kind of a strange question but do you think men or women are more inclined to say 'bless you' more? From my own experience it seems like women are more likely to say it, but maybe that is just how I perceive it since I find women blessing someone kind of hot and notice it more. What do you guys think? Link to comment
lovelysneeze Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Aha, I deffinitley think girls do, I notice that guys don't say it that much! Link to comment
sneezybreezy Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Girls definetly do a lot more...I don't think many guys say it unless they are in close proximity or know the person well. All these guys need to step up and bless the sneezy girls! lol! Link to comment

blondyachoo Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I think for sure with people without the fetish female say it more. However, in the case of people with the fetish I think males say it more....atleast on youtube anyway. Link to comment
Frozencat Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 In my experience its been more likely to have a guy say it, actually. Link to comment
atchoum Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Well, in secular France, no one blesses at all. Some people *may* say "à vos souhaits", but it's pretty uncommon. French people are usually surprised when they go to (even French-speaking Switzerland) where many people say "santé!" So it's not just a question of differences between men and women. I almost never say anything, as it may stop a series of sneezes. Link to comment
Guest Tootsie2008 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 i definitely think women say it more than anybody. that's from experience, because at work i never hear guys blessing anyone--it's mostly my female co-workers. but i dont really know to be honest--i guess it depends.

zneeze Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Yeah, definitely women more. That's not to say guys with the fetish don't though... Link to comment
Jemmabean Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I love blessing. It's a big part of it for me - blessing and being blessed. Link to comment
Selene Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I'd say girls, although I noticed that guys tend to be more likely to bless if the sneezer was female. Link to comment
Lamborghini Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I think for sure with people without the fetish female say it more. However, in the case of people with the fetish I think males say it more....atleast on youtube anyway.I think so too Blondy. Lamborghini Link to comment
Quills & Wells Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Actually,I think its about an even split here. I've found more guys than girls who will bless strangers of any gender though Link to comment
SneezeDoc4u Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I find that its also a pretty even split in terms of blessing people, however, i only bless my girl friend because i find it to be too personal of a thing to do to other people Link to comment
Sneesee Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Honestly, I've probably seen a pretty even split with blessing. I know some women who don't say it at all. I've seen my hubby bless the guy in the computer store, but not say it to me. And I have a guy friend at work who blesses people he doesn't even see! And I know I bless most people, and I am female. So, I see all kinds of people doing it, and some that you might think would bless, who don't. Interesting question, though!!! Link to comment

Heathcliff Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I agree, in my experience girls say "bless you" more than guys.I remember sitting near a group of girls once in college, hearing about six or seven different sneezes that were immediately blessed (and not just by one person).Men don't usually seem to bless each other... although they might bless female sneezers.
