Perhaps because I've spent so many years sleeping with people whose median body temperature is somewhere between Hell and the sun, I enjoy sleeping in a cool bedroom. Unfortunately, this presents a problem for people who don't want to sleep in the middle of a glacial igloo.

So, now I want to know: how do you like your bedroom?

(I want your regular, baseline answer. I know we all have those nights where we have the flu and, no matter how many windows we open in January, we cannot stop sweating. We all also have those nights in June where we are so cold we consider putting socks on our hands to stay warm. Your usual preference, please.)


This poll is public so I know who is being banished to the couch.
Answers (public voting - your screen name will appear in the results):
I like my bedroom to be, you know, room temperature (neither hot nor cold).

I like my bedroom to be cold (if icicles aren't forming, it's not cold enough).

I like my bedroom to be hot (if I don't break a sweat, the thermostat's too low).

I love to snuggle up with the blankets, if the wife would let me I would sleep with the AC on and blowing right on me.

somewhere between cool and cold. I have a nice fluffy down alternative comforter that I love to sleep with, and I don't want to get hot under it.

I like the bedroom very cold, but it makes the boyfriend miserable. So we compromise. He gets an extra blanket, we keep the bedroom warm, and I turn on a bed-side fan so I can be cool enough to be comfortable.

I like it cool, but my wife prefers it cold. Of course, she doesn't know what cold is, since when I go hiking/backpacking, I have routinely slept in temperatures below freezing.

I love my bedroom cold. I love to sleep under my covers to get warm. Although sometimes I regret the cold when I get out of bed in the morning. My boyfriend likes it cold too since he gets really hot when he sleeps and the cold keeps him regulated.

Honestly, the colder the better. I am cold if the temperature dips below 72.2 so I am the "weirdo" walking around in sweatshirts and such when others are in shorts. Anywho, I happen to sleep under a very thick comfortable (even in the hot summer), there is just something about cool sheets and having my body warm them up. I also pull them over my head to make a tent of warmth.

We keep the house at 65-67 degrees. We sometimes even crack the window. We like it chilly!

I like a fan on or something to keep a consistent breeze. I'm super cold a lot of the time, but if it gets too cold, I'm miserable.

My boyfriend loves it to be freezing.

I am ALWAYS cold, so I keep it pretty warm.

I like slightly cool. I can cover with a blanket if I need to. If I get hot, I can throw off my clothes, covers and everything else and then I'm screwed if I'm still hot.

I like it cool, that way I can cuddle the boyfriend without him complaining about getting too hot and rolling away from me.

When I was younger I needed a room temp that was similar to desert temperature but now I stick with regular room temp. My guy prefers it cool bcs I release a lot of my body heat, and he gets too hot from being in bed with me.

I like to keep my room at either room temp or slightly cool. I like the cooler temp especially if the boy is there for snuggles as his body temp runs really warm.

I like it somewhere between cool and cold, because my husband and I both turn into little furnaces when we sleep, and I love being curled up under heavy blankets. However I hate getting out of bed and getting tons of goosebumps.

When sleeping I want it freezing, but when I'm awake nice and cool is wonderful. Since I live in my dorm room, and the old room takes so long to cool, I just keep it as cold as I can all the time.

I like it warm unless I can't sleep & then I cool it by a few degrees.

I like my bedroom to be warm, but warm for me is rather hot. I'm usually always cold, even when most people think the temperature is just right. It doesn't help that my honey is a bit warmer than most people. This basically means that for me to be warm, he has to be sweating. Lol! I don't win the heat argument in most cases. He gets to feel comfortable, while I'm freezing.

Don't even get me started on taking showers together! I turn the water up all the way to 'HOT HOT HOT'! That's the only way I can feel a bit warm. He steps in and turns it down to 'OMG my tits are going to start forming icicles!'

I like it to be cool, and I always need a fan on for the white noise and just the movement of air. I always want to be sleeping under a blanket, and in the winter I want to be under blankets, quilts and a comforter... and at the same time I don't want to overheat.

Our bedroom is freezin' no matter the season. We keep the fan on high, the personal AC on and the heating vent closed. It's gotta be cold cuz the bed has lots of blankets and body heat makes us both sweat buckets.

Definitely warm but not super hot. M always has to turn the heater to full blast if we're doing anything sexual at his place because I complain it's too cold (even when he tells me I feel like a furnace). It gets icky though because he sweats up a storm at that temperature.
