Geoff:
Because it's a male thing. We often don't complain because (1) we 
don't want to be called wimps (2) we don't want to let the ****** 
doing this think they're getting to us (3) we're going to grit our 
teeth and get through this.

I may be of somewhat more advanced years than Harry but I can see 
precisely where he's coming from.
