The classic Christmas song “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” has scored some major victories this week. On top of a Bay Area radio station lifting its ban on the seasonal favorite, Billboard now reports that the song is surging in sales despite feminists’ attempts to brandish it as some kind of date rape anthem.

“Several versions of the holiday song surged in sales and streaming and continued to draw airplay in the latest tracking week,” reports Billboard. “Most notably, on Billboard‘s Holiday Digital Song Sales chart dated Dec. 15, three interpretations of ‘Baby’ appear, the most of any title, and they make the survey’s three largest gains, respectively.”
