This is old news but it has only just come to my attention. According to reports from late May/early June, Hooters will open in Parramatta sometime next month and later will open in Cronulla. The franchise which features waitresses with large breasts in skimpy clothing failed once in Australia but here they are again giving it another shot. The 1997 attempt was located in Five Dock so perhaps they’ve chosen their locations more carefully this time by calculating which suburbs have the densest population of sexist, bogan men.
And you gotta love this advert, I’m not sure if this is how they’re marketing it in Australia (as a family restaurant) but somehow I don’t think that take will work here. Check out the dynamics they’re trying to put across:
Dad: “This is how to be a man son”
Mum: “I’m so proud of my boy, learning how to ogle big boobs”
sheesh.
