Weirdest cold weather phenomenon....

One of the weirdest cold weather phenomena is shrinkage of the male appendage. Surely you'd need to mate in cold weather to ensure that offspring are born in warmer weather, so it's an evolutionary faux pas, and it's a surprise that mankind has survived thus far.

I saw a similar weird effect on a much smaller scale last winter on The Loch of the Lowes in the Scottish Borders :

Nah, they snuggle up for warmth in the cold and that gets them thinking and linking. Half the women I've ever known were born in September.

100% of the woman that I married was born in September

Two of mine were also born in September, which I attribute to the annual Christmas sh@g

This one is new to me but completely logical - as a huge sheet of ice warms up it must need somewhere to expand. Fascinating.
