That said, women do seem to like a higher ambient temperature than men. Popular belief holds that men have a “higher metabolism,” which may be broadly true but in itself explains nothing. The medical literature offers more detail, but even the experts don’t agree. Leading theories:

Women have a higher ratio of surface to volume than men and thus shed heat faster. The reasoning here is that heat generation is determined by volume (radius cubed), while heat dissipation is determined by skin surface area (radius squared). The smaller your size, the lower your heat generation/heat dissipation ratio, and the colder you are. Probably part of the answer–see below.

Men have more heat-generating muscle mass. Muscles are well supplied with blood vessels. The more muscle, the more blood flow and the more warmth.

Women have a higher vasoconstriction threshold temperature. Vasoconstriction is the process by which, as the external temperature falls, blood flow to the skin is restricted in order to divert blood to internal organs, thus maintaining core temperature. The theory: as ambient temp falls, women shut off blood flow to the skin sooner in order to provide more warmth to their unborn babies, so they feel colder. Interesting idea but as yet unproven–though women do seem to have lower skin temperature when exposed to cold.

Women get colder during menstruation. Supposedly this is due to anemia, hormonal changes, etc. However, most studies haven’t shown much difference between menstruating and nonmenstruating women in terms of heat response. As you say, female aversion to cold doesn’t seem to be confined to a particular time of the month.

Answer #11

Lol, I’m kinda the same way! I’ll be having a shower with my boyfriend and my water tends to get TOO hot for him, but its just nice & warm for me. When I have cold shower in the summer, the water is TOO cold for him. Wtf is going on? Lol. I’m always cold too at night too. He likes to keep the fan on at night! I’ll cuddle up to him all freezing with two layers of blanket & there’s him with no blanket on him, saying, “It’s too hot in this room!” Awkward lol. I can’t stand the heat in the car though. I panic and freak out. I can’t breathe when the heater in the car is turned up. I start yelling saying, “I can’t breathe! Turn the effin heat down! I also panic when I start sweating in the house & its too hot for me to breathe.

Answer #12

I know, my wife takes these super hot shower in the summer or winter, I can’t even get in t cause it feels like some of my parts will get burnt off. On the reset of your post WOW, I don’t think me and her are that extreme, but when she was pregnant when we lived in Germany. I would be freezing cause it would be the middle of winter and she would have all the windows open. That is the only time we have had extreme differences.

Answer #13

Lol funny story, I happen to be pregnant at the moment, and last month I was freaking out. I just found out that we’re expecting lol. I had ALL the windows opened too. I have just began sweating alot, but I get cold easily. Maybe the baby is producing lots of heat in there haha. Which makes me want to cool off pretty fast.

Answer #14

no. its just hahaha. i just put a p
