Why are women always cold?

I've noticed this with every girlfriend and girl I've known, they get cold really easily. At night, my girlfriend will be cuddled under a sheet, blanket, and comforter, still claiming she's "freezing." Meanwhile I'm laying right next to her sweating like a slave, with half my body hanging out from underneath this 40 pound thing she calls "comforter" because I'm hotter than hell. Then I feel her hands and feet, and they are like ice. What gives? Why are women always so damn cold in temps than most men feel either normal or hot in?

I dunno. You'd think they'd be warmer than guys because they have a higher percentage of body fat.

To a certain extent I agree with that, but at night when I'm trying to fall asleep, and she's going "I'm cold, cuddle with me," I'm going "can you not see the sweat rolling off my brow? You want me to get under your heavy comforter and cuddle with you? I love you honey, but damn, I want to fall asleep too."

I believe women's bodies tend pull blood away from the extremeties very quickly to keep the major organs at a much more stable temp. Or something like that

Could be because they bleed every month........, in any case I don't think it's a sign of good health.

Dose she or any of these girlfriends you've had ever exercise?

My feet are always cold. I put the heat on them alot, even in the summer. Maybe women are made of my feet?

lol..

You're talking about "health", yet you obviously know nothing about womens menstrual cycles. :p

Women loose about 3 tablespoons of blood during their cycle. It's mostly other fluids.

It is a good question. My girlfriend is that way....

I am not really sure.
