UNLESS you work a blue collar job, or any other job that requires you to be outside the whole time, I don’t see the point in showering every day. Especially if you work from home or in a building with AC. It seems excessive and is also a waste of water. But do what you want lmao.

    Take any temperature you feel comfortable at.

    Raise it by 10℃, and consider that temperature. That’s what I feel like at your “comfortable” temp.

    Simply put, my body runs super-hot. My ideal temps for various situations tend to be 8-15℃ below the same range of other people.

    As in, even normal office temp ranges can make me look like a drowned rat if I engage in any physical effort at all. Even something as simple as moving banker’s boxes around can have me drenched in sweat at “normal” office temps.

    I love winter, because I can be out there in -10℃ weather without even a jacket, be shovelling snow, and I can actually exert myself without sweating. Winter is about the only time of the year where I can experience truly comfortable temperatures.

      Nice to know there are others out there like myself. I’m not this far in the extreme, but I very obviously have northern genetics and I live in the humid South. I abhor summer and dream of winter. I just want to live somewhere where I don’t become dehydrated from less than 30 minutes of effort outside.

      This is pretty much me my whole life. I sweat super easy.

      Also my brain itself doesn’t like heat. If you are familiar with Discworld, I’m basically a troll. The heat makes me dumb and unable to focus.

      Im also super sensitive to humidity with breathing. When its warm and humid out I feel like I can’t breath.
