Santa's Gender
Christmas has to be a warm, well organised, caring, considerate, social occasion.
So, it's unlikely that a man could take responsibility for making it happen.
For starters, the vast majority of men don't even think about Christmas until Christmas Eve.
And when they do eventually rush into the high street at the latest possible moment, they seem genuinely surprised to discover that the only options remaining on the shelves are cheap perfume and lingerie suitable for high class tarts.
Let's face it, Santa Claus must be a woman.
If Santa was a man, all there would be under the Christmas tree are high tech' toys .... still in the original wrappings, of course.
Another flaw in the 'he-Santa' argument is his apparent ability to arrive promptly every Christmas Eve.
If Santa was a man, he could be relied upon to have transportation problems, get lost in all the snow and clouds and flatly refuse to ask anyone for directions.
There are lots of other reasons why Santa can't be a man:
Men have no idea about packing bags.
Men would rather be dead than wear red velvet.
Men have no interest in stockings, unless they are being worn by an attractive female.
But, the real show-stopper is, most men simply can't do commitment.
N.B.: All the more, when their assistants are other males:

Wait a minute, Marianne!
Don't forget MRS. Claus!
SHE'S the heart and soul of the whole operation!
And I bet there are a lot of fairies to help keep the elves in line and on the job.
@TheOtherT(h)ink
Lol - indeed.
Some of Santa's assistants:
the elves:
and Mrs Santa with Santa
Believe what you want.
@xix
Lol - it is a joke.
I hope that I did not hurt your feelings ....
Because a female Santa would get mighty cold up there !
I dunno, Hitman... wouldn't most people say she's pretty hot...?
Yep ! Wonder if I could ask to sit on her lap ???? Without my wife around , of course.
@Hitman
Oops - lol -
. I would say that it would be too cold, also for fairies - lol.

@TheOtherT(h)ink
I was thrown out while trying to answer you. At least one part was saved - lol.
@ Marianne: Those Fantasia fairies seem positively underfed! Mrs. Claus should give them more nourishing meals!
I hope you weren't thrown out because what you were posting was too risqué!
@ Hitman:
Lol - you'll have to blame first quite a few artists and creators - oh, and you can add fashion and related icons like Karl Lagerfeld:

@ Marianne:
Lol, anorexic fairies and models should be outlawed!
Disney finally got it right with Tinkerbell!
@T(h)ink
Yes, he did - lol, and they should rather listen to medicine than to fashion trends, superstitions or fantasy (humans are not shaped like fairies or elves - lol).
And I love the "Dance of Sugar Plum" (Nina Kaptsova):
Yes, Nina can indeed dance like a fairy.
Marvelous.
Yes, I love to see this performance by Nina in particular.
