我很怕冷，今天看到这个我笑了。

原来都是男人惹的祸。

Women, prepare now for being cold at work for the rest of your life.
Those of you who have taken thermodynamics know that heat production is a function of volume (radius cubed), while heat dissipation is a function of surface area (radius squared). So the generation to dissipation ratio goes as the radius, and so the smaller you are, the colder you will be. Furthermore, because women menstruate, they are more prone to anemia, which can also make you cold. I've also read that women have much tighter tolerances on their core temperature regulation, to provide for a better growing environment for potential fetuses. So when a woman's core temperature drops by a little bit, all the blood gets sucked back from the extremities to the core, and their hands and feet freeze. When men's core temperature drops by a little bit, it drops a little bit, and nothing else happens -- so their hands and feet stay fine.

Toss in that the ultimate control over building thermostats usually lies with large, well-fed men in three-piece suits in south-facing window offices, and you're going to be cold a lot. When I was working, I would always bring a coat to work with me, even in the height of summer.

Now, before you run and slap the next guy you see for being so insensitive, note that men are frequently hot - especially in a tie and a nice wool suit! Furthermore, I've seen some things that lead me to believe that part of why women live on the average eight years longer then men is their superior temperature regulation system. I don't know if this is true or not, but believing it gives me great comfort. On bad days I can sit there and think evil thoughts about the men in charge of the thermostats: "I may be freezing, but you're going to die!"

这句是精华：I may be freezing, but you're going to die!
