    Interesting question. I live in Belgium and… well first of all I don’t care for Christmas. I do like to celebrate with family and friends but the religious celebration itself, no. Second I never actually considered it. I do love snow and ice. I recently took on ice skating and… even though I also love the Summer where I can roller blade and skate, knowing that something else is coming is a genuine joy.

    So… I can’t speak for others but I absolutely love the Winter, from hot chocolate to waffle outside to ice skating, hikes in the snow then relaxing by the file place, there is just so much to look for during that season that … never dreamt of “a green Christmas”.

    Edit: I actually had one last year, going to Madeiras, Portuguese island West of Morocco, North of Africa, and… that was fine too. Honestly truth is I don’t really care where and how as long as we share a good time.

    We can like snow in December. Hate it until next december. We will have brown Christmases some years, and there is a sense of disappointment over it.

      This; it’s only 3 months out of the year (well, at least the snow) and I like that there’s variety in my year.

      Being an adult also means I get to choose when I go out, now, so the cold/snow bothers me even less.

      But, like you said, I also live here because I like snow.

    Tasmaina, Austalia here, gets to 23c around Christmas where I am.

    I’d not live somewhere where it snowed, id not live in the tropics (I used to do the latter from being a kid until it got too much and I left)

    Never. Christmas time should be cold af, dark for most if not all of the day, and in deep snow.

    I like to pretend that song is racist as fuck and then pretend to be upset every time it comes on the air. It amuses me.

    It’s also fun to pretend that it’s about cocaine.

    I live in a northern country with cold winters. The alternative to “white Christmas” is really an icy or wet Christmas. Green would not even cross my mind.

    And certainly I prefer snow over sleet or black ice on the roads.

            I overthought this and wondered if a 48" thing can really go all the way in, but I was surprised to know that “The average erect penis is longer than the average vagina. ” and that it’s not really possible to ‘break through’ the cervix and go further.

            Even ignoring girth, it’d probably be very painful for her (without training, I suppose) if someone just rams their 40" into her.

              I mean even if it was 48" in total yearly, that’d be 8 6-inchers or 9 5-inchers. I’d be fine with that :p

                And I forgot that large loads can go by the back entrance. XD

                It’s probably have enough to accommodate 48" (with enough training), or even more.
