Default Is this dangerous for my guitars?

Just read about Muddy-T's loss (the broken guitar) and it made me think. I have two electric guitars that I keep in my sleepingroom/studio. As there is no air circulation when I am recording (windows and ventilation covered with foam for isolation), I use to have my window open very often to fresh up the room. This has been so ever since I moved into this house five years ago.

Is this bad for my guitars? I have no humidity issues in my home but the weather in the Netherlands is quite humid I must say. So far I haven't seen the necks of my guitars bending, they're still straight, if that's the right word. But I really wanna be sure and if you say keeping my guitars in a room with open windows will screw them than I'll immediately change that (although this will turn out awkward).

Actually I rather want to keep them in my studio as that is where I use them. I was used to a house before this one where I had four rooms and this was not an issue. But this new place could cause troubles in this respect. What do you guys say?
