The thermostat in your office may be sexist (news.sciencemag.org)

It's easier to get warm if you're cool than to cool off if you're warm.

Let's not forget many businesses have a dress code that doesn't allow for shorts and sandals or any summer comfortable clothing for men. The dress code for women is normally conducive to hot weather. Sometimes I feel sorry for upper management in wool suits in 90 degree weather, and then I remember how much they’re paid.

Why don’t we talk about that? It should be a part of the discussion. If we’re all allowed to wear lighter clothing in summer would that raise the temperature in offices??
