Let’s play.

A simple question about preferences today.

Years ago, in my younger pre-menopausal days, I’m sure I would have said 100 degrees. We lived down south where summer lasted 8 months and I was breaking out the bikini for sunbathing in February.

Those days are long gone (as are my bikinis) and now? I’ll take the crisp cold 0 temps of winter over a sweltering sauna all day long. I can put on extra clothes to stay warm, but can’t strip down far enough to cool off in that suffocating high heat.

I’m sure I’m the outlier here, but does anyone else prefer the cold?

  1. I prefer the cold as well. Growing up in a part of Texas where the summers are dry and the heat and can reach 112 degrees, I’d rather stay cool. I’d much rather endure the cold winter, all be it a winter where it rarely gets below 20 degrees. But cold is much better than sweltering hot, especially as you said, suffering menopausal symptoms. Even though I haven’t had a hot flash in years, I’d rather be cold than baking hot.

  2. I can’t deal with the cold that well. It really hurts my hip. I like heat. Sometimes it gets too hot but the fall is nice here. I grew up in the Catskill Mountains and we shoveled snow, went skiing which I loved but unless I can fix my hip, that is out of the scenario. Korea was also very cold for the 3 years I was there. I like Florida and West Virginia, both of these areas the weather felt right for me.
