1000x more miserable too.

Not at all, these things are downright luxurious. Wouldn't do without them, and you won't know till you try. It's not like you're required to keep the house a freezer in combo.

Just silly not to focus the heat where the need is. Do you light up the whole house to illuminate your desk?

Did you miss the part where I grew up like what you are describing (except electric blankets, those didn't exist)?

I'm not guessing or imagining anything, I know it's much worse.

I focus the heat where the need is - the air around me. Otherwise, everything you touch is cold, the air you breath is cold, exposed skin gets cold. Sex only under blankets? No thanks.

To be clear, I'm not talking about freezing, everything under 18 degrees C is really cold for me, and under 23 degrees C is somewhat cold.

People talk about wearing fingerless gloves at home - yeah I did that as a kid because we were poor, never doing it again unless I go broke.

There’s generally a recommended temperature to keep the house at, a good balance. Else move closer to the equator if you want to bop around in a bikini.
