a) Is it still "rapey" if Rufus Wainwright sings the male lead?
b) Bubl'e doesn't have the definitive version of ANY song.
c) Women who smoke are generally accepted as "loose" so feel free to liquor them up and ply you wares;)
d) Listen to the interplay on the version from Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery and call it day, or, shitcan the whole deal and listen to Billie Holiday have a go at it on "I´ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm".

the Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery version is the only one I've got, it doesn't sound very seasonal but it absolutely smokes.
― calzino, Saturday, 3 December 2016 16:36 (seven years ago) link
... i especially love how coming out of the vamp and back into the chorus, Montgomery misses a string and Jimmy comes right back a does the same thing in response on his Hammond.
― bodacious ignoramus, Saturday, 3 December 2016 18:58 (seven years ago) link
there's an everydayfeminism thinkpiece just begging to be written about how this song is surprisingly sex-positive by jazz age standards and how it's patronizing to assume that the woman is acting under coercion when she makes the empowering choice to define her sexuality on her own terms by accepting the man's advances in spite of conventional morality and received wisdom advising her to the contrary.

"4 Reasons Why 'Baby It's Cold Outside' Isn't As Rapey As You Think"
― memories of a cruller (unregistered), Sunday, 4 December 2016 02:53 (seven years ago) link
I think the fact that the girl at the end cheerfully says "baby it's cold outside," (i.e. "ok, I'll stay,") makes it pretty obvious that the song is not "rapey," not to mention that most of her protests are like "what will the neighbors think" kind of stuff. Even having to read it this closely to make the point makes me die inside a little.― signed, J.P.

Still not a Christmas song, tho.
I like that explanation, but what are some other examples of this stock joke? I asked this upthread and nothing specific came up.
I can think of one possible example in The Rules of the Game (Christine: "I drank way too much; I don't know what I'm doing," right before going off with St. Aubin).

I'm cool with this being a poll/discussion on a message board; less so with this kind of action. I just don't see how anyone who argues strongly on one side or the other of this issue is going to come out looking good.
