It sounds like what they're saying is that people from hot areas tend to be relatively comfortable in the heat, which IME, as someone from a hot place, does tend to be true. I used to work outdoors 16 hours a day with a 120 heat index. Now I live in a temperate area, and I see everyone wearing shorts and complaining about the heat when I'm still in jeans and a t-shirt and feel pleasantly warm.
