Do you like the enviroment to be cold, cool, warm, or hot? I like my enviroment colder than most people. Is this true of everyone here?

I like it when it's warm. Not too cold and not too hot, I like it just right.

As long as I'm wearing thermal underwear under my regular clothing I can tolerate 73 degrees.
If its any cooler than that I have to put a sweater on to be comfortable.

Without the thermal underwear I'm not comfortable until the temperature is well into the 80s.
I suspect this is because I'm very skinny and have very little adipose tissue for insulation.

Well, I have an appreciation for temperature extremes in their own time and place.

Like February in Vermont. It should be freaking cold. It usually is.
or July in Florida. It's freaking hot. it should be.

What bugs me is inappropriate temperatures for their time and place.
Like currently.
X-mas day here in Florida, and we had a high in the 80's. That's not right. Even for Florida.

As far as indoor, air-conditioned spaces, I like it cool... keeps me sharp.

No, it is not true of everyone.
I live in Bakersfield, California and the climate (normally) suits me fine. I like it between 90 and 100.

I like a temperature from 27-35 degrees Celcius. I don't know what that is in Fahrenheit. Usually I get strange looks from my friends/family/colleagues, because while everyone else is sweating in the Australian summer, I'm running around in the sun, or complaining about the airconditioning.

I like the first few days of spring. A cool breeze but the sun is out. Winter is good but the weather just gets colder and colder.
I would say 18-25 degrees Celsius is what suits me best. That's maybe 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. I know 35 degrees Celsius is 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

I like it warm, but not too hot, and I hate being in a hot place when I'm wearing too many clothes and if I don't have a drink of water or whatever. This is why I turned down the trip to Loro Parque in Tenerife this summer, because I prefered to stay at the hotel where I could go in the pool if I wanted, instead of walking around a boring-sounding place in the boiling heat.

! ! Thermal underwear when it's 73 degrees!? LOL yikes!

I live in an area of Canada, where it's cold in winter (obviously), but then very humid in Summer. So I've always preferred Spring/Fall because I hate both extremes. If I could find somewhere that was 60-75 degrees all year round I would be happy...lol....Of course, this is very unlikely, but with climate change who really knows? lol

It depends on if I'm having a good or bad day. Usually I don't like it too hot, 'round 20 degrees celsius is the limit. On the other hand, I don't pay much attention to the cold. My buddie's wife, once told me, that during the winter, her husband often came home and went straight to the stove, frozen stiff, whining;"and he just sat there in a t-shirt!" I dont have any plants in the house, cause they'll all die during the winter. On a hot summerday, I'm most likely found in the shadow. I hate sunbaths.

I like what others call cold or freezing. That's when I think it's not too hot. When I think it's extremely hot others just begin to like it.
