Proof That Santa's Reindeer Are Female

According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year (the only members of the deer family, Cervidae, to have females do so). Male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid December.
Female reindeer, however, retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring. Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolf to Blitzen.... had to be a female.
We should've known this when when they were able to find their way.

But how do they manage to make it to every house without stopping at every outlet shopping center?

Ahhh, but they must be male because they find their way without asking for directions at every stop!

You don't really need directions when everywhere is your destination.

I don't believe that they're women. Most women are backseat drivers anyways, and if they really were women, they should be in the kitchen cooking!

The 'women' are just listening? Then the reindeer definately aren't men!

Alright, since Blind owned up to his comment, I'll get behind mine. It's comforting knowing that I won't be the only one burned at the stake!

Actually the reindeer can fly, which would make them magical, so they certainly could be able to keep their antlers if they want! (Remember, men do tend to make up the rules as they go along to fit their needs!!)

Reindeer can't be female since they would never take orders from a man even if he is Santa.
