I stand by the original statement - I love winter! If some people can't handle it, too bad.

This person doesn't know about winter sports, cross-country skiing, all fun winter activities
While I love cozy warm bed, I will in fact be going for a walk in the worst part of the big scary blizzard purely for fun.
Agreed. I love the snow
I'm in the ice cream biz, and people tell me all the time: "I CRAVE ice cream in the winter time!"
No you don't.
If you're referring to the winter layoffs in the ice cream industry, notice how it isn't "the winter complete shutdown of the ice cream industry". While aggregate demand for ice cream does go down, individual demand still varies and sales don't drop to zero.
I know if I offered my daughter a freezie right now, she'd excitedly put down the video game she's playing to have one, despite the fact I could just leave them on the balcony and they'd still be freezies.
I just had ice cream last night while watching snow fall. I'll have some more now that there's even more falling. Try to understand that people aren't all the same and you'll have a better idea how the world works.

I have to work outside and I always have to bite my tongue when office workers go all "I love winter".
I agree but also the only times I've gone camping that I've really loved and love looking back on were in winter. Something about a snow blanketed forest just can't be touched.
Not worth it at the end of the day and I'm glad I moved somewhere that almost never snows but still.
50cm of snow outside. Walking is only option to go anywhere. Even if its a longer walk to take side streets, its a nice walk to have once a year. Going to the beaches in the south next week, and the escape great too, but fresh snow on a quiet walk is an awesome experience.
As an adult I loved winter still. I could be outside, do stuff without suffering heart stroke, and I loved running in the snow with my trail running shoes for 13+ miles.
I now live in the southwest and man so I miss winter.
If you judge by that logic, then you gotta be the type to have no favourite seasons at all.
I mean, according to your logic, if you say you like summer, then you gotta first go outside and get under the hot sun and if you don't like being under the hot sun, then you don't like summer. Same logic applies to other seasons too, huh? Man, your logic is ridiculous IMO
I live in SoCal, the heat is going to get in and cook me regardless in the summer, I can at least fight the cold in the winter. Note the A/C and heater are both off regardless.
NO!
There a re people outside...
Nah. I just enjoyed a walk in 10° weather with no worries at all. Didn't feel cold or shivery at all. Why? I simply wore the right clothing... People should be allowed to enjoy winter anyways. I hate summer and heat, but I'm not going to crap on the people who love it despite the fact you actually can't do anything practical to combat the heat when stepping outside on a 100F day. Aside from stripping naked, or being near an air conditioner, or I suppose, a swimming pool. Even those are limited options. Heat is stupidly easy to create and to come by as well. Coldness? Not so much.
What's wrong with enjoying winter from the comfort of indoors?
Tbh I love it outside too, at least when its snowy and not wet.
I was playing in the NYC snow with my kid until my face was numb
I literally just came back from a 3 hour walk outside XD
32°F (0°C) feels great =D

I DO love it, and I'll happily tell you that while shoveling 3 feet of snow off a100 foot driveway by hand in sub zero temperatures. Shoveling snow, especially while it's actively snowing, is like a Zen meditation experience for me.
I went on a hike this weekend in -7F. And last week I had ice cream outside in 13F.
