My coworkers are making some pretty rude and demeaning suggestions about my masculinity as a result of me having a Nana Blanket under my desk for my legs. After a hard group ride, as my body temp drops, they get so cold.
Maybe they don’t like the fact that my blanket has a fringe.

Do you have a nice mug of Horlicks with it?  You'd be better off with a USB powered heater under your desk. Geek cred and warmth!

Wear some thermal long johns under your trousers. Then you can smugly smile at them as you walk into work in the morning... "they've got NO idea how clever I am..."
Please pardon my ignorableness

Concrete gives off heat as it sets. Rapid set gives off more heat. You need to drink more cups of it.

You can ask your co-workers to come and message your legs and warm them up. No more blanket then.

Don't worry about. Sounds like there really isn't much there to demean.

It's the nana blanket in combination with the waxed legs that are doing it. That and the high heels.

Put some pants on? Sorry I suffer the same problem sometimes. Go the thermals under your troosers, and buy some black footy socks to wear as well. Or buy a heater.
