The Balkans. Macedonians [The North Wind argues with the South Wind; the former promises to freeze everything that is wet, and the South Wind promises to melt everything that is frozen; first the North Wind showed its strength, then the South Wind; but on the mountain the old woman hid a piece of ice by sitting on it; South Wind lost the argument and cursed the women: let their ass freeze forever]: Ortenzio 2008, No. 6:38; Bulgarians (data provided by O.V. Belova) [Why women don't have hair on their asses, and men have their first sex on the ice.
