Cold Feet

When it comes to differences between men and women, one place we see them for sure is in the bedroom. Neuropsychologist Dr. Louann Brizendine-author of The Female Brain-says that women must feel comfortable to be receptive to sex.

Just thinking about or visualizing sex sends bloods rushing to the penis. But it takes much more to put women in the mood. “Temperature and comfort are very important to achieving orgasm,” Dr. Brizendine says. “Researchers in the lab found that if they didn’t keep the woman’s feet warm, they had difficulty reaching climax. So cozy socks may not be sexy, but they get the job done.”
