Need a wider sampling, body temp.

Yep, I was at a meeting last night(this is how it started) and I was burnin up in their house. I said "damn I'll bet it's like 76* in here, what are you?" to which they replied "ya, we set it to 76* it's comfy". Dark mother was I hot, I set my house to 71* in the day and 68*-69* for sleeping.

I actually have an idea for sleeping, but the "chill pill" is outside my capabilities

I have a similar issue. but found that if I can get my head comfortable, that's the key. I've discovered 'barley' pillows. not sure if it's actual barley grain, but it's some kind of dessicated grain in the pillow that allows a lot of air circulation and keeps your head from heating the pillow.

Try it.

Same here guys. I am always turning the A/C temps down for the nightime. I would have said thyroid too, but mine were normal as well. I have discovered that it's not the temp as much as the humidity that makes me uncomfortable at night.

Whatever a guy's body temp at bed time, a woman's will be 5 degrees lower.

Oddly, in the first 3-4 months of a relationship, your body temps match so you can sleep intertwined comfortably. Then, everything returns to normal and you give her double covers and sleep at arm's length.

That's nature's way of telling a man to 'move on.'

LMAO!

I'm another hot sleeper. I need cool room air. I sleep best in the mountains with the window open and COLD air filling the room. Then I'll be happy under a pile of blankets while my wife chatters that she's freezing.

The thermoregulatory center is in the hippocampus. The hippocampus is involved in problem solving, spacial navigation and applied reasoning.

My take is that men work their hippocampi hard all day long, so it shuts down at night. Women place no undue burden on their hippocampus in the daytime so they fall fast asleep while we burn up in a room cold enough to hang meat in.

You guys are all scaring me, you hot skinned freaks

Moses - or anyone else who would know - what effect would dehydration have on body temp/perceived body temp?
