St. Nicki? Some say Santa should be female or gender-neutral, survey shows

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – A new survey has people imagining Kris Kringle as a gender-neutral hipster.

Graphic Springs, a logo design company asked 400 people in the U.S. and U.K. how they would rebrand Santa. Then they had 4,000 people vote on their suggestions.
