Why do males get cold faster than females?

Your teacher's statement is true if both male and female have the same body mass index (BMI). In these conditions, the male would have lower body fat percentage, therefore less insulation and will get cold faster.\nOf course, if you put a skiny female and a morbidly obese male in the same room, guess who would cool faster...

Most parts of a male are typically bigger than the same parts on a female (not all though, females typically have wider hips for example).  This phenomenon is known as sexual dimorphism.  The most likely causes of sexual dimorphism in humans are  competition between males for females (the bigger you are the better you are at beating other men, both in a physical fight and in a bluff) and female mate choice, where females tend to pick taller, broader men for partners.  Both of these factors have led to evolutionary pressure on males to get bigger.  The mechanism by which this occurs during development is closely modulated by testosterone.  The more testosterone a man has, the taller he grows, the broader his shoulders are, the bigger his hands and feet are and the squarer his jaw is.\nSome more interesting things about the hands of men and women, is that women tend to have narrower palms and longer fingers and men tend to have wider palms and shorter fingers.  Another interesting quirk is that the more testosterone a baby boy is exposed to in the womb of his mother (yes, women have testosterone too, just not as much as men!) the longer his second digit (pointer finger) will be compared to his fourth digit (wedding ring finger).  Hopefully these will be some interesting facts to put on a science fair project!

Not likely the cold temperature, more likely the dry air we encounter in the winter.  We don't tear as well and therefore our eyes get irritated more easily.

Well most guys avoid girls because they've been hurt or messed about in some way. They'd rather not get hurt again thankyou very much!\n\nThe guys that lead girls on and then go cold are the majority I'm sad to say, and there is no excuse for them or their behaviour.\n\nSometimes its all about being hurt before and wanting to play that game themselves. Other times the guys are just miserable sods who aren't worth the water and salt they're made of.\n\nThe minority, by that I mean we men-folk who at least try to be gentlemen sometimes get it wrong too. But at least we don't actively mess women around.\n\nI guess its all a matter to meeting the correct person for each of us.\n\nThe Iceman.

Nothing, really.  The only difference between a male and a female is that males have more testosterone, which can go to their head real fast.

Most guys know that their genitals, particularly their testicles, are quite sensitive to touch. Lots of nerves, you know.\n\nAlso, males tend to have weaker muscles in the groin area than females.\n\nThere is no guaranteed way of stopping the pain, but a lot of guys just use ice or a cold pack wrapped in a towel.

It not that they get sicker than women.  I think women in general are a little tougher when it comes to dealing with sickness.  I know that men are supposed to be "stronger", at least physically but women are tougher mentally.  And that's the same reason why women can give births.  Men don't.

because they are cold blooded; research from there\n\nand use spell check!

Males tend to be stronger and faster.\n\nI hate people that disagree with this statement and feel it's a put down to women.  It's not, it's genetics, it happens, why is it so hard to grasp?

The scientific explanation is simple enough.  It is the automaticity of stimulus response.  There are numerous other stimulus response automaticities "built into" the humanoid organism. Another specific would be the shiver mechanism that automatically kicks in (for some humans) upon exposure to a suddenly colder temperature.

yes, males have slightly higher volumes in their hearts and a slightly lower pulse rate. Sorry no sources, ask a nurse.

Air is more dense when cold.

If you are a guy your emotions are more intense, they wear them out and the effect lasts longer i.e. they don't recover as fast as women. That is why some men stay away from potentially emotional situations. I think we, the women should have respect for that, and sometimes just back off.

Males get the infection a little lesser from females through sexual intercourse as the number of viruses in females vagina are less as compared tosemen of males.so males give this infection by this route faster to females.Bt if males take to oral sex and anal sex themselves then the chances are same.male to male sex is the worst.

Usually boys / men because they have a larger lung capacity (on average)

LOL, funny things what ya body does dont ya think!\nThe hair grows faster because the skin cells that react to the coldness of the atmosphere, then the hair cell inside the skin cell starts sprouting triggerd because of the nerves. The hair isnt is to keep your skin and nervous cells warm. \nHey and not just in antartica dude!\nI hope this helped you. \nKind Regards, Timothy H. (Age 12, W.A.)

its genetical and hormonal....women who have higher levels of male hormones are more in touch with their musculine side, they often go for a nice guy.\nWomen who have lower levels of male hormones are more in touch with their feminine side and go for the bad boy
