Lol yeah I explained that wrong. Because you sweat in the first place to cool yourself, which you do much more in high humidity, it makes it more tolerable.
Where I live it’s dry heat, and at what you call 100 degrees it’s almost unbearable to be in for more than a couple of minutes. But when I was in that same temperature in Queensland, which is much higher humidity, I could walk around in it all day. You’ll always last a lot longer in the tropics than a desert at the same temp.
I can't stand hot summers

Humidity feels like it keeps you cooler and makes it more tolerable. Cause you’re covered in sweat rather than it just evaporating
