I'm sorry but my Santa will not be a woke, skinny jeans wearing, tattoo'd sis gender fairy millennial snowflake!


KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For a long time, Santa has been portrayed as a jolly, white-bearded man in a red suit who can't get enough of cookies and milk. But now, a new poll shows some people want Santa to be rebranded as gender neutral or as a female.

Graphic Springs, a logo creation company, received input from 400 people across the U.S. and the United Kingdom about ways to modernize Santa. From there, they surveyed 4,000 people on how they envision a 2018 version of the jolly old man himself, according to ABC 13.

The survey revealed nearly 19 percent of respondents said the patriarch of Christmas should be identified neither as female or male.

Exhausting is the right word for it.

On Santa though, has anyone here ever gone to the post office and picked up a few letters for Santa and bought a toy some kid wanted but couldn’t afford?

Best feeling in the world. Santa is in all of us.

Gender Neutral Santa? 27 Percent Say Yes

    12/14/2018 The Hollywood Conservative Staff

In a bazzare attack on a beloved Christmas icon, some want to turn santa female or gender-neutral.

A poll of 400 people found that a staggering 27 percent are dissatisfied with Santa's gender.

CBS Pitsburg Reports:

    After years of this image, Graphic Springs, a logo design company, surveyed hundreds to rebrand Santa and give him a more modern image.

    The survey polled approximately 400 people from the United States and United Kingdom. Then, 4,000 people voted on the most popular version of the Santa they designed from the survey.

The survey polled approximately 400 people from the United States and United Kingdom.

So out of a combined population of around 400 million people between the 2 countries, a whole 400 of them voted and 108 of them decided that Santa be a He/She. Guess it is time to panic everyone.
