Anyone who hates the cold must be anorexic and grossly underweight.
Are you 3 years old?
People who hate the cold come in all shapes and sizes, including some fat people. I can physically tolerate cold but I hate it because it feels crap to me.
Also "anorexia" is a mental condition not a body type/size. I am pretty thin, genetically, but eat over 3000 calories a day so that would hardly make me "anorexic". No worse than me saying "People who hate the heat must be grossly obese" which I know as fact has offended people on here before. So we can do without the rude and childish comments thank you.

Once I joked about fat people getting too hot and everyone was up in arms about it getting all offended so I will exercise my right to be offended when someone says all people who hate cold must be anorexic.

It was a joke. I guess the silly icon didn't make that clear. It was a tongue-in-cheek comment since anytime this topic comes up, heat haters are assumed to be overweight and not exercise. Lighten up.

I don't think anyone said that. I said that body type and temperature preferences isn't directly related because it has more to do with your metabolic rate as to whether you feel cold or hot. I know fat people who hate the cold. Muscular people often hate heat because they have fast metabolisms. I have a fast metabolism but I just prefer warmth and not cold. I don't know if I'd hate living in heat all day long but I've experienced it up to 50°C (whatever that is is fahrenheit) and it wasn't too bad.

Yeah it wasn't you who said it. Mr. Marbles has insinuated it a couple of times. I agree that metabolism plays an important role.
No...not really built that way. You acclimate. All summer long, we have been running in the mornings (0900) and taking walks in the afternoon (1200-1400). And it's been great. No problem. Now, I wouldn't bother with any of that at 1600 (peak heat), but I totally see playing golf in the morning till early afternoon.
But it would only work cuz we've been outside all summer long as it is.
Not true. I lived in Miami for six years and I never acclimated to that heat and humidity.
I'm with the OP, I much prefer the cold. It's easier for me to warm up than it is to cool down.
Nonetheless, while I do not understand them, some people like hot and that's ok.
