I voted 80 degrees, but in reality that depends on many factors from humidity, sunshine, to what I'm doing.
I'd also like to add that the day hardly stays at one temperature, even in equatorial areas, there is some change (granted not much more than 10 degrees F), so really a range needs to be specified. 85 F - 65 F seems like perfection to me.
I love cold weather, so I picked 40 degrees, as anything below that I would enjoy. I hate hot weather and being too hot. It's been unseasonably warm in Albuquerque lately and I still use my air conditioning to bring the indoor temperature down to my favored 69 degrees or less. I rarely use my heater in the winter, usually only if it's in the teens or twenties outside and dips below about 55 degrees inside. My apartment is well-insulated and it holds warmth in well. That's good in really cold weather but really awful for me in transition times like now. It gets up to 78 degrees or more inside during the day just from ambient heat if I don't turn on my air conditioner regularly to cool it back down to my comfort level.
It depends on the situation. In low humidity, prefer somewhere between 65-75, depending on whether it's sunny or not (really sunny, prefer 65. Super overcast, prefer 75). If I have to wear a suit, prefer around 60. If I'm going skiing, prefer around upper 20's. If I'm going swimming, prefer above 85.
