They also have a poll on their main page and they were talking about it on the radio today-seamed to upset a lot of people. | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

First, Christmas is commercialized. Now, it's sexualized. Which is no surprise, really, given our culture's obsession with sex and sexuality. I can understand some being upset.

Let me start by saying, I am not a prude, and I like tacky displays of crass originality, BUT...
Why?
It doesn't make sense. Seems that something this controversial has the huge potential to backfire and cause a loss of customers during a time of year in the retail business where you are hoping like heck to make it into the black for the year. not really a chance that I think I would take.
---------------------------
Nevermind -- I'll take care of it myself!

It just seems that nothing is sacred anymore.

As a parent of three young children who truly believe that the "real" Santa is at the mall. . . I'd be UPSET!
As an adult without my kiddos out and about and saw this like at Victoria Secrets or something I'd think . . . Great marketing. | | | |

I have two young boys (5 and 2) and for me this is a non issue.
From my perspective there are plenty of Santa's around town to get some pics taken. I would not go to this one, but I'm sure that others would...
It takes all kinds, Right? If there is a market for it, it will be back next year. If not then the story is dead. | | | |

IT is NOT AIMED TOWARDS KIDS but for the kid in adults. I believe that what they call is mall is a strip type center with all sorts of shops aimed towards an adult crowd. I believe that it is being done in a restraunt bar location or it may be an open space that is not leased currently not out in the open or near a toy department.
