Women feel cold more often than men.
REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA – Scientists have discovered the reasons why women are more beautiful than men. In general, women’s body temperature is cooler and they feel cold more often than men.
According to the researchers, it has to do with evolution. This physical condition is the difference between the two sexes. Eran Levin of Tel Aviv University in Israel further explained the difference.
“Men and women feel temperature differently. This difference in thermal sensation doesn’t appear so that someone can argue with their partner about air conditioning, but the opposite,” Levin said.
From an evolutionary point of view, these differences are meant to distance couples from each other. In this way, each individual can enjoy peace and quiet.
The study initiated by Levin and his team was published in the journal Global ecology and biogeography. The results show that this phenomenon does not only occur in humans. Similar traits are also found in females of numerous bird and mammal species.
Females tend to prefer a warmer environment than males. At certain times, the preference for temperature causes a separation between the sexes.
Levin also linked the phenomenon to many other traits seen in animals and humans. For example, females are more likely to snuggle together to warm up, while males often keep their distance or avoid contact with each other.
