Yay or Nay: Hot vs. Cold Showers

Hot or cold? Yes or no? In or out? Up or down? No, this isn’t a play on Katy Perry’s hit pop single, but it most definitely does involve the argument of hot versus cold, specifically in the context of showers. Yes, the menial, clockwork task of cleansing one’s body. Go ahead, read on to amuse yourselves as we, the writers of Echo Media, attempt to sell you the idea of washing yourself in hot or cold water as if you would change the kind of temperature your body is suited for at the drop of a hat.

In this month’s Yay or Nay segment, our writers Julia and Hannah tackle a more serious topic that has been brewing within many people’s thoughts. Without a doubt, we have all been exposed to various types of encouragement regarding genuinity and being true to oneself.
