What an amazing discussion group this is... one can ask serious gender
questions & trivial coffee questions without fear of (here it comes)
getting burned.

My suggestions:
1) Drink iced coffee (lots of milk & sugar).
2) Cultivate an interest in exotic coffees & spend so much time
discussing the relative merits of each cup (it's a nice blend, but a
little sharp in the upper register) that your coffee is always cool when
you drink it.
3) Buy my new "Tip-Gard" (tm) tongue protector. Accept no substitutes.

You might cross-submit this question to a coffee discussion group. (I'm
sure there are plenty out there.)

I'm serious about the iced coffee, by the way.
