Probably because the water in India is so filthy that they've been conditioned to avoid it.

In America people believe you catch a cold virus from being outside in the cold. I don’t know any other cultures that believe this.

Cold produces stress on the body which leads to immune weakness

They don't think the cold air gives you a virus; they think freezing your body into torpor allows you to catch an infection from a common and ever present virus

it was pretty funny that "scientists" finally solved this mystery not long ago by saying it was actually your nose that needs to stay warm to keep your immune system working against viruses. in other words, mask up. ljl

lol'd at the pic of the supposed penis stealing witch with the caption that admits the pic probably predates the text about such spells.

imo it seems like shes actually trying to get a small-dicked or impotent dude to use one of the dildos/sleeves on her
