frigidity
Severe lack warmth
Frigidity is extreme coldness, whether literal or figurative.
The literal sense—the frigidity of the Arctic winter—appears less often than the figurative: emotional coldness, aloofness, or lack of warmth in manner.
In older medical and psychological contexts, frigidity specifically meant a woman's inability to experience sexual arousal or enjoyment, a usage now considered dated and sexist.
