Thanks to Cossaw for the pointer.

    That makes sense… maybe because they usually are much more sensitive than the “real men”? :)

    The “sensitivity” you are referring to is hypothetic. I have yet to see any study on the subject, even if I would tend to agree with you based on my own private experience.

    Same same. Just a general rule inferred from my own experience. Even in Thailand.
