liking a particular season is a racial stereotype
america is wild
You got like half the country who views people of color like the dungeons and dragons creature manual. It's a racist reactionary shithole.
Look at a white lady's Instagram or facebook page and you'll see why
Nobody associates pumpkin spice and North Face with PoC, Becky :shrug-outta-hecks:
Psst! Pumpkin spice is mostly just garam masala without the black pepper!
No, being gay and liking spring are two different things.

There's also just acclimation. White people (colonists and other exploiters) died of the heat on a constant basis when they fucked around in West Africa. Some areas were even somewhat spared from settler-colonization due to this, particularly some hot + humid islands off the coast.
Those white people grew up in less-humid, less-hot Europe, then went down to the equator and passed out while sitting on their butts.
You can also observe this with pretty much any Southern Californian that moves somewhere with cold winters, but in reverse. Those kids freeze their butts off and wear parkas on August evenings.
It's a great way to check the room for closet racists lol. Just say some negative shit about fragile white skin that can't handle being in the outdoors most places or light eyes that deal very poorly with bright light, etc etc.
And uncritical support for colonists dying of skin cancer and heat stroke in Western Africa.

ok, based
I'm PEE OH CEE and I fucking HATE hot weather. I'n from California so I'm acclimated, but fuck this shit lmao. I would move to Washington or Oregon if I could but those are both Mayotown USA
I think it bothers us less though
because Mestizo master racebecause we're darker and our eyes also being darker are less bothered by intense sunlight. Maybe it's some other calipers shit too, when I worked in a kitchen all the Asian and white employees never got used to how hot it was in back of house but everyone who was dark skinned didn'y seem to care. Maybe there's just some wide ranging genetic adaptations for the heat in people whose ancestry is from hot climates? My dad is barely even bothered by 90 degree heat, despite not having lived in Mexico for decades.I have European friends who have been to hot climates and they say it was unbearable, they couldn't get used to it
You mean to tell me there's a connection between melanin and climate?
I would not expect POC to lack cold tolerance, but it would make a lot of sense for them to have gotten some sort of heat tolerance in a similar fashion to how they got their UV tolerance.
I'm an enlightened centrist leaf enthusiast. Orange or bust.
I'm a multiculturalist because I appreciate all leaf colors.
harvest time exists for various cultures in different parts of the globe, racial interpretations of tilted-axis revolution around sol is just kinda weird
Sometimes I like to wear socks in the shower so they get really wet 'cause then when you take them off you feel extra naked.
Favorite weather for exercise-ie activities by far. Not so cold that your jaw turns to ice, not so hot that you have to constantly deal with layers or getting too sweaty.
Also perfect for getting cozy. Hot tea just tastes better in autumn.
It's a really nice 55 and cloudy where I'm at today. Big fan.
Love breaking out the winter gear for the two months I can wear it here in cali lol
round planet has southern hemisphere 'autumn' too, just the global north :brainworms: believe otherwise
All landmass is concentrated in the north, so what we call south is actually more equatorial. The actual south is mostly water.
ok here's what i mean, show me a picture of a palm tree dropping red leaves on the ground where dark cold rain falls down on them at 3 PM
