Are you freakin kidding me?? Apparantley, Santa's in Australia are no longer allowed to say 'ho ho ho' because it is offensive to women. I wanna meet the woman who automatically thinks that she's being talked about when a big fat guy in a red suit tries to entertain children by saying 'ho ho ho' I think its stupid, mainly because when women protest against stuff like this...kinda makes them look like they have a guilty conscience. If ' ho ho ho' offends you...QUIT BEING ONE!! Does anyone else agree? Do any women feel offended by this?

Unbefreakinlievable...
Women didn't start this. Some idiot in an employment agency advised the Santas they recruited to say Ha Ha Ha instead of Ho Ho Ho. I can't imagine any woman being offended by Santa's traditional laugh because some stupid rap artists use it as a disgusting slang expression. Any woman who does has bigger issues than this to deal with!
Somebody please use some common sense!

It is absurd that anyone would mistake the traditional "ho ho ho" for an insult. Santa was Ho Ho Hoing long before modern trash talk abreviated the word whore to "ho". This is just pure stupidity.
I am a woman and I am not offending by a cultural tradition which has remained harmless for decades.

I just saw this article too! It's ridiculous!! Come on, it's a little something called CONTEXT. If I see a Santa with a kid on his lap, I'm thinking he's in the Christmas spirit, *not* calling *me* a derogatory name! Please, I can't believe this woman complained. Does she really have nothing else to do in her life except ponder over "ho ho ho"? Is her self-esteem that low? Is she really that stupid?!
Ugh.

LOL
They are also being told to slim down.
I can guarentee that the people who are trying to ban the use of "ho ho ho" are NOT your average women, but some liberal spineless sissy who doesn't want to get sued because his stupid lawyer told him that it might happen some day. Obviously more fallout from the Don Imus thing.

Aww, the new evil has come full swing, that is......Political Correctness!
I'm so sick of living in a world that lives in offense at everything and everyone. People, wake up!! Get over your stupid little offenses.
I am an evangelical Christian and we get picked on, mocked, and lambasted daily. I just smile and go on......minorities, heavy people, nationalities, and people groups need to chill out. Quit wearing your feelings on your sleeves!!

This is just too funny! I wonder who in Australia thought up this one! I'm now trying to think what other things we say and understand automatically which may be considered offensive in the future.

It has never offended me and it doesn't now either. I don't know what is going on with the world but it doesn't look good. Where do we go from here? What is next? Things change but it does seem a bit ridiculous. Actually, it's really silly.

Yes, and if any woman is a "ho,ho,ho" that would about three times worse then a regular "ho", I am assuming, of course.
