Anti-Santa

I am most definitely against Santa

I would love to talk about sex adventures -- but I haven't heard back from Tex about having some personal play time -- so instead I'll talk about why I am not crazy for Santa

and

that's not really true

I'm ok with "Santa is the spirit of Christmas"

but not with

"going to see Santa"

First off Pixie doesn't really like men
and teaching her that it's ok to sit on a strange man's lap and share secrets with him
seems like the exact opposite of what we teach our daughters

don't even get me started on the creepiness of "he sees you when you're sleeping and knows when you're awake" and the implied threat of "be good for goodness sakes!"

Santa can bring presents
but

when we see a santa in the mall I plan to say, "oh look - there's a man dressed like Santa"

and call it a day

  1. We're Jewish. So we don't celebrate Christmas, and we don't have Santa. But most people just assume that everyone is basically at least a Christmas and Easter Christian, and when they were little, everyone always asked my kids around Christmas, what Santa was going to bring them. And then my kids would respond that there was no such thing as Santa. People don't like that, especially if there are other kids around. I wonder if there was a lesson there.

    And I also think mall Santas are a bit creepy anyway.

  2. You have just said it in a nut shell! Here the kids do a wish list,its sent to the christ kind and he brings the presents on the evening 24 dec. If the kids done what they do with santa any other time of the year, the bloke would be arrested!

  3. We love Santa!!! Well, I love Santa. Little One doesn't really know much about him, aside from that he comes at Christmas. I've never used the "be good or Santa won't bring you xyz present..."

    The whole sees you when you're sleeping thing is weird. I must not love Santa that much since I failed to put out milk and cookies the last two years. But THIS year...Santa is getting some damn cookies.
