After all, the secret was opened! Why do men in the office feel heat and women get cold?

There is often an ‘AC war’ in the office. On the one hand there are men who always feel heat and demand to speed up AC, on the other side there are women who are trembling with shawls or jackets.

This scene is from almost every office. This complaint of women is often blown away saying that “you just get cold!” But is it just a feeling or is there any concrete reason behind it?

So let’s expose this secret today. Yes, it is not just your fault that you feel much cold in the office, there are strong scientific reasons behind it.

1. The real player is ‘Metabolism’
Consider it as the ‘engine’ of the body. When our body is resting, it still keeps burning energy (calories), and heat is produced in this process. This is called ‘resting metabolic rate’.

• What is the difference? Studies say that men have more muscles than women, lower fat. And these muscles also burn more calories while resting, which produces more heat in the body. In the straight language, the ‘engine’ of men is a little hot.

2. The body’s texture is also a reason
It may sound a bit strange to hear, but it is true. The amount of fat in the body of women is slightly higher than that of men. This fat helps to keep the internal organs warm of the body, but it prevents heat from reaching the skin surface. outcome? The body remains warm from inside, but the skin feels cold, which makes us feel cold more.

3. The biggest reason: Office’s old ‘formula’
This is the most interesting reason! Do you know on what basis the temperature of air conditioning (AC) is set in most office buildings? It is based on a formula created in the 1960s, which is one 40 -year -old man (weighs around 70 kg) The metabolic rate was created keeping in mind.

Even today, even after decades, most of the offices are set on the same old male-centric formula! Of course, the temperature which is perfect for a man according to that formula, the same temperature is quite ‘cool’ according to the metabolic rate of women.

So the next time someone taunts you when someone raises the temperature of AC, you can smile and give this scientific reason! This is not a complaint, but a biological truth.
