Men lie more than women… or maybe women get caught out half as much?

Men lie more than women! Hardly a newsflash from the Daily Mail. But they do list the top ten lies from men and women:

Top ten lies men tell:

1. Nothing’s wrong, I’m fine
2. This will be my last pint
3. No, your bum doesn’t look big in that
4. I had no signal
5. My battery died
6. Sorry, I missed your call
7. I didn’t have that much to drink
8. I’m on my way
9. It wasn’t that expensive
10. I’m stuck in traffic

Top ten lies women tell:

1. Nothing’s wrong, I’m fine
2. Oh, this isn’t new, I’ve had it ages
3. It wasn’t that expensive
4. It was in the sale
5. I’m on my way
6. I don’t know where it is, I haven’t touched it
7. I didn’t have that much to drink
8. I’ve got a headache
9. No, I didn’t throw it away
10. Sorry, I missed your call

What men die of

Came across this over at Tcritic where Karl writes “I think this is an incredibly interesting graphic that would make a stellar T-Shirt. Unfortunately I have no idea of the origin, does anyone know what designer did this?” Contact him if you know the answer.

It is a great graphic representation which leaves (or creates) many questions. I wonder if the numbers are correct and what are the corresponding numbers for women? 47 men die of diving into shallow water?
