You're just stating facts... why would anyone have an opinion on that?

How about 70? Then both of you can be slightly uncomfortable together.

Even if you provided 1000 pages of scientific data on how humans have evolved to operate optimally at an ambient temperature of 69 degrees.

She would still be right.

I thought "68" was generally considered to be the optimal indoor room temperature.

Though I tend to keep my place 60 in the winter, and 72 in the summer.
72 is about as warm as I tolerate, and 60 is about the coolest that I'm comfortable with just shorts and a t-shirt...

Just tell her that you'll walk around naked if the temperature is 75 degrees.

Why wouldn't you keep it slightly wamer in the winter and a little cooler in the summer?

60's are too cold for my blood. I guess it's because I'm used to the heat. I keep my house (parents) and my apartment at 78-79 year round.

Anything less than 78F is a fortune to keep cool. Florida Power & Light even recommends 78. If money was no object though I'd prefer 75 or so.
