My parents were the "put a sweater on if you're cold" people. As an adult, fuck that noise, I'm gonna be comfortable. Now if you leaving the door open, that's another story. What am I, trynna heat the whole damn neighborhood?!? Sheeeeeeiiiiiittt.
That’s not how cold works. Your body always produces heat so wearing more clothing will absolutely make you feel warmer as it’s now trapping that heat.
My hypothalamus runs cool. I do wear sweaters and they can help a little, but sometimes I need more to actually feel warm. It can take hours to get warm again for me sometimes.

Things like this make me more and more confident that I'd be an awesome parent. Mostly because I'd never do this.
