The objections to this song are not about sexism, but about implied coercion and assault, if that's your interpretation of what's happening in the lyrics.

An appropriate person with whom to take up your pique at the changing way people view this song is Bill Cosby.

or "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" which condones and lets bullies off the hook

after making poor Rudolph feel terrible; in the cartoon he is even shamed into leaving home and putting himself into danger. While I feel empathy for Rudolph, I've always hated the line in the song that says "Then all the reindeer loved him" after Santa asked him to help guide his sleight. "Then?" Then they loved him? after they "used to laugh and call him names" and not let him take part in any reindeer games, all the crap they doled out to him when they couldn't use him. Screw them -- Rudolph should have gone into business for himself.
