This is not about shopping convenience, I'm arguing against the idea that indoor malls are even social spots in the first place. Everyone seems to be glossing over this. For the record: Yes, obviously indoor malls are…
My point is that these outdoor centers always have more to offer for social activities. Indoor malls do not have this, even when it is more convenient to use them.
"Bustling with activity" yes, shoppers. I'm arguing against the idea that malls are social centers. They are not, and when they are it is because there are no other options. Nobody wants to spend time at the mall.
So you just don't go outside when it snows? Snow does not stop me from running errands to any other regular store that has an outdoor entrance. I don't understand how this is an argument.
Sure, it's convenient when the weather is bad. That still doesn't make malls a staple of social activity, which was the point I was arguing against.
I think you misunderstand. Malls only end up as a social gathering spot when there's nowhere else to go. And even then, that only really appeals to teenagers who have nothing else to do. A mall would never be preferable…
