Lol, no we don't argue about it. I've long accepted that he wants the temp in the place at about that of a walk-in meat locker, and I want it warmer. It's an easy enough adjustment for me, I just wear arctic gear in the place to be comfortable so that he can be comfortable too. It's much easier (and more practical) to add clothing for warmth than it is to get comfortable when he's too hot.
I've definitely had family members who squabbled over the thermostat setting, which leads me to conclude that with all this talk about prenups, perhaps an agreeable thermostat setting should be included in them.

Don't have a thermostat. Women feel more comfortable at higher temperatures than men. Men are comfortable at 72f while women are comfortable at 77f it's why women in offices are always cold because the temperatures are set for men..

No point arguing... let her win. She typically likes it warmer than I do during the day and cooler at night, says she sleeps better that way. I just adjust my clothes and bedding accordingly.
Most women go through changes and most of us get colder than our partner.
Argure? I am not sure…I really need it to be around 70 degrees in the house in the winter. Otherwise I start to get/feel sad and depressed. So he keeps it around 69 m, even then I still have space heaters around.
then he bought me an Eletric blanket. I love it. Especially when jumping into cold sheets…but now it’s cozy and warm. It’s the right size for me so he keeps his sheets cool. I don’t like fighting or arguing. I am also teaching my teens kids in a kind way that our household, we speak well of each other and do the same for their future families.We don’t agree at all.
currently we’ve been arguing about the Aircon being on all day since we are in a place that’s extremely hot. I have no problem with it after being outside all day to come home to a cold space. But after 10 minutes, I’m absolutely freezing. He wants it on even when we sleep. We’ve had to compromise where the ceiling fan gets turned on and I gotta sleep with long sleeves and pajama pants.Different people have different tolerance to temperature and you can't just call her ridiculous for not having the same preference as yours.
I keep my room really warm but usually if I know I'll have someone over I turn the temperature down so it hasn't caused any issues so far.
I don't even use the heat in Florida at all. Most times it doesn't dip down into the 30s F for more than a couple days so the house tends to stay relatively warm in my opinion until the weather changes. A computer is enough to keep a room warm. I'd have to live in a location were it was consistently bellow freezing for a week plus to use a heater. I don't even consider tossing on long sleeves until it's in the low 40s to 30s F. Weather in the 60s is ideal.
We don’t argue about it but we definitely have different temp preferences lol
i love to be warm and toasty and sit right in front of my little space heater I have.
But he’s always hot and is begging me to turn it off. Understandable lolNah my partner just let's me control the temp since I usually keep it comfortable for the kids. A temp like 60 outside the heat would need to be on or else might cause a runny nose
We don't really because we hear with a wood stove. It's basically on or off. However, if we had a normal heater on the house the argument would be in full swing. I do not like to be cold.
In the farm house that I was raised in. It was nothing for the bedroom temperature to be under 40F in the morning !
I love a cool bedroom while under covers!
My mother made lots of quilts!
Snug as a bug in a rug’It's not the thermostat but the elephant in the room no one is willing to talk about
no, she keeps the bedroom like a meat locker. i hate it because it is too cold. I just suck it up.
mm no we don't argue over something so minuscule
Yes, when I had one we did. Ahhh good times. Not!
It's a lot easier to get warm than it is to get cool. Just buy an electric blanket and sleep with it if you have to. You can't win an argument about temperature with a woman.
No, neither of us touch the thermostat.
It's my house & I like it cool. If he doesn't like it put on more clothes.
this is one you should just give up on and lose. Women are crazy in this space. Lose this one and use it to win a different debate
No because we like the same temperature in the house
Yea, maybe agree. Have hard to to imagine the 60F outside.
Nope, we keep it between 69 and 73 year round.
