I am in deep deep trouble if my sex drive gets stronger during cold weather - about to head into a Chicago winter. I guess it’s a good thing I don’t live in Canada. Though perhaps the Candadian men would be beneficiaries. 😃 ---

I do wonder how porcupines have sex. ---

I wonder. Is it the female sex drive that steps up a notch or 2 or is it the normaly horny guys who take advantage of the fact that the female is cold and wants to snuggle up to keep warm. I know that whem Mrs. D snuggles up un a cold day I get very roamin hands. And I guess after enough caresses one thing will lead to abother. d ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Tranquilis \* > \*\*I guess that settles it: Cold==Sex. \*\* Bing Bong. Thanks for playing… Most babies are born in September / October in Australia, too. Which means that there are probably factors other than weather coming (pun not intended) into play. FWIW, in cold months, you might get a bit, if you can prove that the quilt need not come off the slightest bit, and only if it’s not so cold that I need more than one layer of clothing, but in summer when I sleep butt-naked, I’m jumping my SO every night. So, I hate to rain on your parade, it depends on the person, and everyone is different. I prefer jiggy in summer. My SO prefers jiggy in winter, so basically we compromise and both get it year 'round 😃 ---

heat=sex too. The hotter the room the more chance people are going to strip down= sex. Of course, why do hot tubs turn women on but turn men off? I read somewhere that in porn flicks the water in the hot tubs is cold not hot. ---

Damnation. It’s very cold here today, like 35 degrees outside. It’s also rainy and overcast. I won’t get time alone with Mr. S until Saturday night, either. Cold weather. Yuuuum. I’ll get bored with it in a month or so. Spring is the best time of year for me. When the air is the same temperature as your skin…_shivers_…aww yeah. ---

If cold made people horny, eskimos would be the largest race in the world, right? 🙂 ---

Not only does cold weather make me want it, but rainy weather does too. I get a bit crazy when it’s cold _and_ rainy. Is it hot in here? ---
