A childcare centre has removed a 'sexist' sign from the boys bathroom after a complaint from a parent, but the manager insists it was just a 'bit of fun' and kids wouldn't understand it.
Tiddlywinks Dance and Play centre in Brisbane took down what some parents considered to be a 'very inappropriate' sign from the boys toilets on Thursday.
Someone who was at the centre for his niece's birthday party noticed the sign which gave tips on how to 'please a woman' and a much smaller section on pleasing men.
The sign said that women needed men to 'love', 'die for', and 'be interested in' them while men were simply pleased by women if they 'show up naked' and 'bring beer'.
The disgruntled uncle sent an email to management demanding the sign be removed from a bathroom that was primarily used by 'five-to-12-year-old boys'.
After other parents sent follow-up emails of their own, the centre's manager said they were the first complaints he'd received in the 15 years it had been in there.
The business owner explained that the centre opened for adult functions at night and that children would not comprehend the context of the poster.
'A kid may be able to read it, however would have no concept of the meaning,' a screenshot seen by Yahoo News read from the manager.
'I'm aware of the sign — consider it gone. We open at night for adults and it's just a bit of fun, we didn't mean to offend anyone.'
Photos of the sign eventually made their way online where it received even more backlash from other parents who said they found it 'gross', 'creepy' and inappropriate.

I think it's important to train up the youth of today to deal with reality. Some people apparently have differing opinions.
LOL. I really like the sign. It shows it doesn't take much to please us blokes, as the Aussies would say.
