Sure — why not ring in the New Year with a raging celebration of virulent misogyny?
Apparently, the owners of the Brass Monkey Hotel Bar in Northbridge, West Australia, saw no problem with making light of the epidemic of rape at college campuses — which often goes hand-in-hand with American universities’ fraternity culture.
Disgusting banners decorated the bar with slogans like:
“Daughter Drop Off Point”; and
“Our Couch Pulls Out — But We Don’t”
Naturally, people on Twitter and all over called the bar out for its blatant sexism, and the bar coughed up an apology.
But hey, we’ve got a good New Year’s resolution for the Brass Monkey Hotel bar — and anyone, really: Stop promoting rape culture.
“weve come to fuck your women! weve come to drink your beer! so bring out your women and bring out your beer!” was the punchline of a chant i had to hear boys shouting over and over during pub crawls at university in australia. i remember vividly alex and i sitting there stiff and uncomfortable while assholes screamed this from the windows of a courtesy bus we were all in. i didnt end up going to many pub crawls. the ‘culture’ is rotten through.
