The things people will resort to doing, just to get noticed. I happened upon an article on yahoo that said that Santas will be saying "HA HA HA" instead of his usual "HO HO HO" to prevent women from being offended.
As far as I am concerned, the only women who even come close to being offended by good ol' Saint Nick gleefully says the same thing since the beginning of time, are the women who actually are HO's. Come on, people. Aren't there more pressing concerns in the big ol' world to focus on other than Santa Claus?
Women have been trying for centuries to become equal to men in every way as men.
We had to fight to vote, we have had the "glass ceiling" to deal with for years.
I am frankly tired of some men looking at me and because of my blonde hair, dismiss me out of hand and I don't have the ability to have an intelligent thought. Guess again.
Women are still in this day and age, are paid less than men.
Were we to have had a woman president years ago, it is a very real possibility that we would not be in the middle of this no-win war in another country, when they have clearly shown that they can not or will not behave as human beings. The price we pay are lives lost. It is way past time for the US to stay out of every countries battles, and take care of what we have to fix at home.
I just get so infuriated at the dumb things that have people up in arms. How about getting upset about how many families are living in their cars. How about how many children go to bed hungry every day. How about the number of jobs that are lost every year to foreign countries because they undercut the jobs here.
Wake the hell up people, and leave Santa alone to do his thing, he's not offending anyone.
Focus on what is important, and forget the small stuff.
