It is the difference between man speech and woman speech.
Men speak directly.
Women speak indirectly. Not hurting feelings is very important as a woman, so women will hint, nag, change the subject...

A woman who says, "Do you think its cold in here." Isn't asking you on your opinion of the temperature, she is saying she is cold.
Men expect, "Honey, its cold, can we turn up the heat?" Everything else is pretty much irrelevant when concerning the temperature. As in, most men will not recognize anything else as an actionable statement to do something.
