Shorts i get. But why does a human wear a jacket in summer that is not trying to hide something or trying to sweat out water weight?

Because im cold. Literally hat is it. When everyone else is complaining about the heat, to me is the most perfect day. When I go into work they have the AC at like 19C and I'll literally get sick, and at home my wife keeps it at 24C which still is cold for me . so I wear a jacket all day. Even for the 10 min car ride from work to home

Edit "preface" to "perfect"

I hated how the office I used to work in kept the cold air blasting. I had to wear layers in August. And because of how bad the building's HVAC was, it was still warm on the other side of the office.

I bring this up whenever people suggest working in the office is more productive. Being physically uncomfortable is not good for focus, Jeff.

I’m the exact opposite. Anything above 20°C and I’m in shorts and tank top sweating bullets. I work in a very hot kitchen and it’s brutal for me, I’m always finding any excuse to run into the walk-in freezers and coolers

Same here! Anything under 26° is too cold and I'll wear a sweater. I sleep under a winter blanket in summer and under two winter blankets in winter. Plus I have heating pads scattered around basically all the places in my home where I hang out. My doctor has checked my thyroid and everything seems fine, I guess I just really like feeling warm.
Oh, I also fell asleep in a 70° Sauna last week because it was very comfy.

Fashion. It's stupid.

Or they're like my wife who is freezing to death if it's colder than 80F.

A lot of us just hated our bodies and the jacket/sweater kinda helped us feel obscured.

Or wearing a toque.

A straight jacket in the summer makes sense for some.

When I was a teen/young adult I was a furnace. I would get hot extremely easily so I ended up wearing shorts during winter.

I miss those days...

Does it go away eventually?

It'd be easier to bundle on more clothes when cold. Getting more naked when hot has a limit to it.

For me i got progressively warmer. I own like 20 pair of shorts and 2 pair of pants.

The jacket is to keep the heat fueling my internal steam engine. (And nicer than sunscreen all the time).

Man's not hot.

Little8Lost@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 312d

But thats the same person (my brother)

Shouldn't they be swapped?

Summer jacket kids are tougher.

Living in a city where everyday the weather is a gamble regardless of month or season I am both of them

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 2 pts · 312d

I'm the left. Only my arms really get cold in the winter, and I am otherwise hot all the time. I would just wear sleeves if that didn't look dumb as hell.
