The Brass Monkey Hotel has issued a public apology after sexist banners were hung from its balcony on Thursday afternoon to promote a fraternity-themed party at the venue this weekend.
Some of the banner messages - which have since been taken down by management - read: "Our couches pull out, but we don't", "Drop your freshmen daughters off here" and "You teach her morals, we'll teach her oral".
The Northbridge nightspot issued an apology at around 2pm after receiving a number of complaints, but was not making a comment to the media.
"We have been contacted by concerned people from the WA community regarding banners that were placed on the exterior of our venue today for an upcoming frat-themed party," the apology read.
"The team meant no offence or harm to anyone by the messages written on these banners and can see how they are inappropriate.
"These banners have now been taken down and will not be put up again.
"The team at the Brass Monkey Hotel would like to apologize [sic] for anyone affected by these messages and hope that you have a great New Year's."
An event called Frat Fest Weekend is due to take place at the venue this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The event description says there will be "college games, beer pong, obscure sports jelly shots and red cups" and was encouraging attendees to come dressed in their best college-themed outfit.
Meanwhile, a venue across the road from The Brass Monkey Hotel has hit out the sexist banners by hanging their own banner titled "women are amazing".
"We normally don't like to comment on other bars and their doings. But we thought we should hang our own banner in contrast to the stupidity across the road," the Mechanics' Institute. Small Bar posted on Facebook.
