    This was definitely an unnecessarily gendered post. My wife’s secondary function is transforming food into heat energy.

      I don’t know about unnecessarily gendered. The joke sorta relies on the common idea that women have colder hands and feet.

      People who period are more likely to have less average blood volumes, but you’re right that they may not necessarily be girls.

        What are you talking about? Blood volume does not have anything to do with it.
