I like them super hot. I've been slowly making Charlie's bath warmer and warmer, while asking him if he wants it hotter or colder. He says he wants it HOT! That's my boy! (It's still way too cold for me, but it's a start.)
Olive is taking baths with Charlie lately though, so it's back to lukewarm water. Mrs. Bee takes her baths somewhere in the middle... actually she mostly takes showers.
How hot do you like your baths? How about your SO... and your LO!

Me: scalding
DH: warm
My cats drink out of my bath so apparently they also like scalding.

I like it hot! During pregnancy my doctor told me to keep it around 100, and I about died. That is way too cold!
DH never take baths but he likes colder showers, and DD doesn't like her baths very hot, either. DS, on the other hand, will cry and try to climb out of the tub if the water isn't hot enough.

I like it so hot that when I get out, my skin is bright pink. I take baths with M and her baths end up being cooler than I would like but probably hotter than they should be (hovering just around 98 degrees).

Hot! I get in the shower with it cooler and slowly turn it up. If DH decides to join me he usually ends up jumping out again or turns it right down straight away!

As hot as the shower will go!! DH likes his about the same, but doesn't crank the faucet all the way like I do.

I start off with cooler water to wash my hair in, then switch to super hot. I typically run out of hot water before I want to get out of the shower. During the summer, after the gym, I prefer a cool shower, though, since I'm still flush from working out.

Scalding! To the point I turn red. DH prefers warm, he whines if the temp gets above what I consider lukewarm. Luckily we have a tankless water heater so I never run out!

Sufficiently warm! I usually add a splash of hot every few minutes or so as it cools down from the temperature I like it and actually becomes cold!!!

I like super hot showers. Hot enough that I'm all red when I get out. My husband thinks I'm nuts. His preferred temp is somewhere in the middle.

I like my showers very hot!! But DH likes them warm....and that's why we would never shower together! LOL

Depends. I usually like them hot, but sometimes I actually like them pretty cool.

Warm enough to be cozy but not too hot to hurt my skin. DH takes the hottest showers ever, I can't even touch the water he showers in without it hurting my skin!

Much hotter than DH. When he joins me I have to turn the temp down, otherwise he complains. LO gets cooler baths since she's so little.

I prefer it to be just before the level where it will burn me.
DH prefers it "lukewarm" but I refer to that as freezing.

It has to be super hot, bath or shower. DH likes lukewarm baths. LO likes lukewarm too, probably because DH used to bathe her when she was smaller.

I like it so hot it's steaming. My husband thinks I'm crazy. I love a hot bath. I'm so sad to be moving and leaving my huge soaker tub. At least my new place has a regular soaker tub.

Showers prickly hot, but I save a cool rinse for the very end to close pores and follicles.
Bath I like them warm and I drain and fill to keep the temp consistent.

HOT! my DH likes the water warm and it causes issues when we shower. We have a pretty good system now (me tricking him into thinking it is cold enough until he gets used to it)

My six year old would cook herself like a lobster if left to her own devices. I like hot water (and my skin is constantly griping at me for that in this lovely MN winter), but she takes hot to a whole other level. She bathes with little sister, and so at the start of the bath the water is not how she likes it and she complains oodles, but when little sis gets out all bets are off! Lowly (baby) could care less. I'm pretty sure she would be awesome with the water out of the fridge if that's what we put in there. She just likes the splash-factor, but she's small enough that I'm still kind-of uptight about not using the full capacity of the hot water heater. Also, she got dry skin from me and her dad, which means that hot water is not her friend.

I start off warm and gradually make the water hotter. DH starts off and stays at scalding! Way too hot for me.
