Funny, I find it weird to dress (so) differently indoors to out in winter. Why should it take more preparation to leave my house in winter than in summer? That seems like a defect.

- bluGill 4y agoWhere I live it gets cold enough for the pipes to freeze if I don't heat the house. While I can live in a tent and thus wear the same clothing indoors as outdoors, I consider not having to go outside for a bathroom a plus and thus I keep my house warm enough that I can have indoor plumbing. Once I have committed to having plumbing, the cost to heat to the point where I'm comfortable without extra layers is minimal.
- OJFord 4y agoI heat the house, I said 'so differently', I'll put a coat on - I just don't want to be rolling my sleeves down, putting a jumper on (perhaps taking my shirt off temporarily and putting a vest on), and then putting a coat on. I'll usually wear some light coat/jumper outside in summer anyway (UK!), so my point is just that I don't want extra things to put on (ok, a scarf & gloves) - they can be thicker and more waterproof than the summer ones.
- alkonaut 4y agoI live where there is freezing 6 months per year and people never wear shoes indoors. Getting dressed when going outside is done basically 101 months of 12, as the hottest summer months you are having "room temperature" also outdoors.
- culebron21 4y agoBecause some people live there where in summer, you need just a T-shirt, and in winter you need a sweater and a heavy winter jacket or a coat above. And a good hat.
