On the sexist air conditioning thing. I try to sympathize with the air being tuned to my level vs yours. But please also understand that I am covered in hair that I cannot take off and you are not.

It’s not the fur, it’s the fat. If society preferred chubby chicks you wouldn’t have this imbalance.

I am a woman and I will 100% say fuck this debate. It’s easy to bring a sweatshirt if you bring cold but there is nothing more miserable than being hot and having to awkwardly try to sweat at your desk. It’s disgusting and makes everyone cranky when they’re hot

I'm a woman and this issue has always bugged me too. Being hot sucks and is inescapable. You can't take off clothes but you can put on a fucking sweater or a scarf if you're cold.

Same here OP. And I’m still damn cold lolol. That’s a pretty weak reason, seeing as some women don’t actually shave and a lot of non-women do.

Women and men have different body temperatures. It has to do with body composition - muscles generate heat and men’s bodies tend to have greater muscle mass than women’s

Sure SC1, do whatever you want with your body hair. Especially if it gets you to agree to normal AC.

Also I am not a woman. But I do live with a woman. And I have yet to see natural hair (more than peach fuzz) grow on her shoulders, back, stomach, hands, etc etc. I'm sure you get some but it ain't the same

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud. Love is not rude, it is not selfish, and it cannot be made angry easily. Love does not remember wrongs done against it.  Love is never happy when others do wrong, but it is always happy with the truth.  Love never gives up on people. It never stops trusting, never loses hope, and never quits. Love will never end.
