Following a recent push to outlaw "Baby It's Cold Outside", Cabot Phillips headed to George Mason University to see what students thought of the song. Is it too offensive?

All Christmas songs are offensive. I'm dreaming of a "white" Christmas…Come on!
Let it "Snow"? An obvious drug song. Have Yourself A "Marry Little" Christmas? Obvious attempt to insult small gay people. Stop the insanity…

This is insane, remove classic Christmas songs because they're offensive, but what about the disgusting lyrics in many rap songs? The hypocrisy is pathetic!

Jan, so, Madonna re-recorded it? I didn't know that, but I guess it figures. When I first heard that song, I had been looking for Christmas carols and I was sort of stunned and then I almost fell off my chair laughing at the audacity of such a song at Christmas. Now, I like the song and I play it about once each Christmas, but I would say, "It ain't your grandmother's Christmas carol, for sure."

Betty Power:
They would love that song because the old blankety blank Madonna has re-recorded it. So that's really, really acceptable now!
(They wouldn't know what 'eartha kitt' is; probably something to do with global warming?)

Wow! the words in Baby It's Cold Outside is so offensive they can't stand it, but watching Beyoncé & others strut half naked across a stage in a suggestive manner is just honky dory.
BTW! "What's in this drink"has absolutely nothing to do with the contents but rather makes reference to his being maybe too persuasive. These are 2 adults in love for crying out love & he's asking her to stay not forcing her to stay.
Grow up! & the media is to blame for this crap by bringing it up in the first place. This isn't news by a long shot.
Snow Flakes!!!!
I wonder what they think of the song "Santa Baby" by Eartha Kitt.
