Quote: Something about the cold makes me feel immobilized, and it doesn't even get all that cold where I live. I can see that when the outside is so hostile to warm-blooded life and you're kind of trapped inside, it might make you cling to comfort and feel very hesitant to rock the boat.
This is true even if you live in Michigan. It is natural to be more active in terms of all sexual matters when the weather is warm. For instance, it is hard for me to envision myself telling my H that I am going to go to the biker bar and take my chances if he isn't interested because I would then have to scrape off the car, wait for it to warm up, put on about 3 unsexy layers and worry about road conditions later in the evening. It would be much easier to just flounce out of the house in the spring.
