Hey Twitter friends: does your country depict xmas scenes with snow theme even though snow is not typical xmas weather locally?
#SociologyOfChristmas. Why does Australian #Christmas depict snow given our hot climate? http://buff.ly/1Qw1zSI pic.twitter.com/z6e9Iz4OSU

@OtherSociology Is it similar in South America? I don't imagine Spain/Portugal having many white Xmas so influence would have to be USA -
@xayma Yes. In the link I describe it's the USA commercial influence. It is very hot here during xmas, peak bushfire season! -
@OtherSociology I'm originally from Australia I know :) I do find the UK has a lot of "white christmas" influence. That must also be US -
@xayma Interesting. I wonder what other countries depict xmas with snow that is not typical of their xmas climate!

@OtherSociology they need to view Christmas like us in the Caribbean -
@BWolmers No. We need to depict it like xmas here in Australia! Hot Aussie weather, multicultural-Aussie influences - anything but snow.
