If I remember correctly...
Wasn't there a TV documentary that explained that women have cold feet and hands because their homeostatic system is set up to keep warmth at the core of their body to keep the ovaries toasty, wheras men are designed to shed a lot of heat to prevent their testicles from overheating, or somesuch - it's definitely to do with a biological need for women to keep internal organs warmer and thus they reduce blood flow to extremities to save body heat....

So you should be ok on the espresso

I think I read that too
that women have a higher core body temperature. My ovaries do feel quite toasty.
