Exagerados | Querem Papai Noel dizendo 'ha ha ha' em lugar de 'ho ho ho' 08:44 A empresa de recrutamento Westaff, em Sydney, na Australia, está tentando implantar uma versao de Papai Noel mais do que politicamente correto. Fornecedora de Papais Noeis para todo o país, quer que seus contratados nao digam mais o tradicional 'ho ho ho'. Devem dizer 'ha ha ha'. A expressao original, segundo a empresa, pode assustar as crianças e seria ofensiva para as mulheres, por que o som lembraria 'whore' (prostituta). Até grupos ativistas pelos direitos das crianças acham que a empresa de recrutamento exagerou. Noticia do news.com.au.

Two Santa hopefuls reportedly quit the course because of the hullabaloo of the ho, ho, ho. One would-be Santa has told The Daily Telegraph he was taught not to use "ho, ho, ho" because it was too close to the American slang for prostitute. He also quit. "Gimme a break," Julie Gale, who runs the campaign against sexualising children called Kids Free 2B Kids, said. "We are talking about little kids who do not understand that "ho, ho, ho" has any other connotation and nor should they. "Leave Santa alone." Australian Childhood Foundation chief executive officer Dr Joe Tucci said it was the latest example of political correctness gone mad.
