You are the heat source at 94F or so external temperature. Since your home is cooler, it is the heat sink. A fan increases the airflow speed, thereby increasing the heat transfer rate.
Physics says it does cool you down.

I agree that a ceiling fan will cool your body, but my point was that it doesn't cool the room or reduce the humidity. But, I still do not like ceiling fans and I don't use them. I guess it is a personal preference.
