We just stumbled across a hilarious (but also thought-provoking) blog on the Huffington Post today and wanted to share. Titled "What if Men ran Christmas?" the blog addresses all sorts of things about the upcoming holiday that would be totally different if men were in charge. Oh wait, you thought they were in charge? Maybe you haven't heard that women make 85% of the purchasing decisions in this country, and more specifically 56% of household gift purchases.

As a public relations firm specialized in marketing to women, we think it's very interesting how differently the genders approach things like a holiday. For brands wanting to reach different audiences during this time of year, it could be very helpful to take such differences into account.

Christmas cards? According to men, they take too much time and effort. And most men would rather have steak for a holiday meal than turkey. Take a look at the slideshow and see if you have other ideas about how Christmas would be different if it were run by men. We'd love to hear what you think!
