Why is it automatically assumed we love summer?

Ever listened to the weather forecast lately. "It is going to be beautiful today, We are in for a glorious spell of warm sunshine" Might just be me but I can honestly say I hate warm sunshine, it is my idea of torture.
It might be fantastic stuck in the park doing nothing or in a nice air conditioned office etc but for the rest of us sweating when trying to do the smallest tasks does not appeal to me at all, the inability to get to sleep at night leave me irritable, the list could go on.
No thank you sir, give me Autumn any day.

Having said that I do love a nice long walk on a crisp frosty winters morning wrapped up warm. But I dislike the fact that I get up and it's still pitch black and when I leave work it's pitch black
I personally love summer. .the light mornings and evenings are so uplifting and enjoy the warmth that comes with it
It's just assumed that we all love hot weather - I don't!
Because the majority of us love it. What's not to understand about that? We're not talking rocket science here.
11°C on Saturday and Sunday.
There's nothing worse than a warm,stuffy bedroom in the summer and you cannot get to sleep.
When the BBC forecasters salivate as such high temperatures for the next several days somewhere in the UK you know it's going to be unbearable throughout the Uk with that azores high over the whole of the Uk hung around just that bit too long for comfort.
Sunny under clear blue skies and light breeze at 20 to 25 degrees C (i.e upper 60's to mid high 70's farenheit) is good enough. Anything in excess is just too hot, sticky and sweaty.
People who say 32 degrees C is pleasantly warm they are just being ridiculous as to most people it's unbearably hot.
Unbearable for some. Personally a few days of high 20s or low 30s would be great. So far this year I don't think we've had 2 days in a row of 25c or higher. So the Daily Express and others who reported we would have a scorching June have been talking out of their arses as usual.
Well exactly. Go to somewhere like the Middle East or Africa, then you'll know what really hot temperatures are.
It's a whopping 22 degrees C here outside. That's two degrees above room temperature.
And people are still complaining.
However, for some people it appears to be.
I've met very few people that prefer winter over summer.
It isn't automatically assumed we love summer. I happen to do so, but I'm not speaking for everyone else.
Not many butterflies around in winter and not much UK cricket either. Two things I like, for example.

The UK has some of the most temperate and changeable weather in the world, few extremes, so be glad about it.
If you can't handle it, emigrate. Simple.
Believe it or not it can still rain while the temperatures are 28 to 32 degrees C. And a rainy day at 29 degrees C e.g. is a horrid experience.
No shit Sherlock! It can actually rain at any temperature. Warm rain is lovely.
I hate summer
But we haven't had any warm nights yet
It's been warm here
Where is that?
Where we live, newcastle
Been up to 22c in the flat
That's hardly warm, let alone hot.
That's 2 degrees C above room temperature, as I said above.
I guessing you are quite obese, as you claimed to be able to eat two Subway footlongs in a day, no worries, in another thread, so if you are, you will get hot more easily than a person of average build.
I'm not exactly skinny myself at 13.5 stones for a 6 foot 1 inch person.
