“Cold water can do more than just wash away sweat, dirt, old skin cells, bacteria, and viruses:

I can't even handle a cold shower, I cant make myself do it.

I like a really hot steaming shower, wash everywhere and turn around in circles for a few mins then turn the heat down to warm before getting out.

I can't imagine being able to clean properly with cold water.
