    "Since “Baby it’s Cold Outside” was pulled from the radio because someone was offended, I feel that these other holiday songs should also be on the chopping block.
    How did our generation ever survive:

    1. I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus: subjecting minors to softcore porn

    2. The Christmas Song: Open fire? Pollution. Folks dressed up like Eskimos? Cultural appropriation

    3. Holly Jolly Christmas: Kiss her once for me? Unwanted advances

    4. White Christmas? Racist

    5. Santa Claus is Coming to Town: Sees you when you’re sleeping? Knows when you’re awake? Peeping Tom stalker

    6. Most Wonderful Time of the Year: Everyone telling you be of good cheer? Forced to hide depression

    7. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: Bullying

    8. It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas: Forced gender-specific gifts: dolls for Janice and Jen and boots and pistols (GUNS!) for Barney and Ben

    9. Santa Baby: Gold digger, blackmail

    10. Frosty the Snowman: Sexist; not a snow woman

    11. Do You Hear What I Hear: blatant disregard for the hearing impaired

    12. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas: Make the yuletide GAY? Wow, just wow

    13. Jingle Bell Rock: Giddy up jingle horse, pick up your feet: animal abuse

    14. Mistletoe and Holly: Overeating, folks stealing a kiss or two? How did this song ever see the light of day?

    15. Winter Wonderland: Parson Brown demanding they get married...forced partnership 16. I'll Be Home For Christmas: Not if you are homeless. That's just insensitive.

    17. Grandma got ran over by a reindeer: Homicide. Extremely violent and promotes alcoholism."

    Come ON PEOPLE...STOP BEING OFFENDED by EVERYTHING YOU SEE or HEAR... Move on...

    Please bare In mind that this Posting is tongue & cheek. There you go I have covered my arse.

    Rottiman: You must be a complete idiot (Please please refer to my opening statement) to post such a twisted view of Christmas songs. Here I go qualifying my statement as not to get banged by the PC crowd.

    Great posting and couldn’t be more spot on, although the PC crowd would not begin to get what you are saying. So tired of this PC chit and people being so thin skinned.

    Again, great post and couldn’t be more to the point.

    Ahem...
    I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that it should properly be "snow-person".

    I must admit that I have never really liked Baby it's cold Outside. But I don't care if other people listen to it and certainly think it is stupid to ban it on a radio station. Some people find it romantic, others find it creepy or pressuring, but really, we all just need to calm down. All those people are alright with the rappers and what they talk about, but this 1940's song is apparently too much for them to handle :picard:
