Santas warned 'ho ho ho' offensive to women
SYDNEY (AFP) - Santas in Australia's largest city have been told not to use Father Christmas's traditional "ho ho ho" greeting because it may be offensive to women, it was reported Thursday. Sydney's Santa Clauses have instead been instructed to say "ha ha ha" instead, the Daily Telegraph reported. One disgruntled Santa told the newspaper a recruitment firm warned him not to use "ho ho ho" because it could frighten children and was too close to "ho", a US slang term for prostitute. "Gimme a break," said Julie Gale, who runs the campaign against sexualising children called Kids Free 2B Kids. "We are talking about little kids who do not understand that "ho, ho, ho" has any other connotation and nor should they," she told the Telegraph. "Leave Santa alone." A local spokesman for the US-based Westaff recruitment firm said it was "misleading" to say the company had banned Santa's traditional greeting and it was being left up to the discretion of the individual Santa himself. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20071115...t_071115024540 |

fuck them bitches, say ho, ho, ho if you want santa, it was around way before the fucking cry babies who complain about it were nut stains in their momma's panties outside of the drive through
|
ok so after 100's of years of Santa saying ho ho ho it's all of a sudden something that may offend women and needs to be changed? And Ha HA Ha?? So now they want santa to sound like a mental patient? lol
|
The most retarded thing i've heard all week...
|
fucking insane!!!! to damn much being PC going on today.
|
absolutely unbelievable. leave the damn tradition alone!
|
oh that's just fucking stupid.
|
This is one of the most ridiculous things I've read all day! :(
|
First they say Santa is too fat and they want a healthier image portrayed to children. Now, they don't want Santa to say Ho, Ho, Ho. It's insane. Why don't we just go on TV and tell kids that there is no such thing as Santa and be done with it. We are ruining everything else--why not kill this dream for them as well.
|
Not surprised. This is the direction the world is going... Hell, you cant even say 'Merry Christmas' anymore. :(
|

|
everything about this is a waste of time
