Why do people say ‘sweating like a pig’ when pigs can’t sweat?
The term came from pig iron, not the animal.
animals sweat, men perspire and women merely glow
Can’t remember who said that
Yeah! And why do “stuck pigs” somehow bleed more than other creatures?
That’s why I say “sweating like a pedophile at recess”
Yep. People are a bit dumb.
I prefer “Sweating like a sinner in church.” Or its variant: “Sweating like a hooker in church.”
Haha it’s like “blind as a bat” bats aren’t technically blind
Just like why are pigs considered fat when the average American has a higher body fat percentage? A pig has an average body fat percentage of 16%.. the average for the American man is 28% and for the average American woman is 40%.
I always thought like a human pig, a fat person.
Horses sweat, men perspire, and women glow. I hope that clears it up for everyone.
Because both pigs and sweat are considered dirty
My guess is that sweating tends to make people feel dirty or grimy, and pigs are known for that same feeling getting all down and dirty in the mud.
Cause if they sweating it must be hot as ballz
Google came up with this.
