A 'sexist' sign at a Houston school has been removed after it caused an uproar on social media.
The quote, which sat above a row of lockers at Gregory-Lincoln elementary school in Houston Independent School District, read: 'The more you act like a lady, the more he'll act like a gentleman.'
Many expressed their horror, saying they believed the quote was victim-blaming and perpetuating the women are responsible for men's actions.
The quote began drawing controversy on Friday when Houston resident Lisa Beckman tweeted a picture of it.
'This is the wall at Gregory-Lincoln Middle School in Houston ISD,' she wrote in a post accompanying the tweet.
'It's perpetuating horrible gender stereotypes, shaming women, and relinquishing boys of all responsibility. It's sexist, mysogonistic [sic], and discriminatory! I'm horrified.'

Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.
That is too severe and irrational. Just tell your daughters that if it has tires or testicles you're going to have trouble with it.
While I care not a whit for the monarchy, I respect the Queen a great deal. Her service is a big factor in that.
Feminism has destroyed womankind.
Tell your daughters to ignore all of the idiots who try to control their thinking. “THINK FOR YOURSELF” the most valuable lesson my parents taught me. I was never a “follower.”
As King Solomon asked in Proverbs 31:10
"Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies."
He goes further in Ecclesiastes 7:28
"While I was still searching but not finding-- I found one upright man among a thousand, but not one upright woman among them all."
Then again he himself had an issue with monogamy, perhaps that's why...
This is a very sad fact of life. I was in a bar recently, and almost every woman was taking her drink with her to the ladies room. I’m sure they were doing that so their drinks would not be tampered with. Sadly our women have to think about issues such as that.
People in Houston aren’t too good at accepting and understanding truth.
A hefty combination of the two.
Not even close.
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
They have been turned over to reprobate minds.
Texas is NOT the Texas i used to know...
This is generally true but not always true. In general when we act with dignity and respect we raise the atmosphere.
But we cant be help responsible if someone acts badly. We arent that powerful.
This is not the United States I used to know
These people need to grow up. America is becoming the land of pussies. The once-great educational system is leading the way.
Now I'm upset because you left out those who are questioning. :)
They replaced the sign with: “The more you act like a whore, the more popular you will be! Vote Democratic!”
It widely hailed at a great step forward for women’s rights.

Problem is that thete is no accepted norm for what a “lady and gentleman” are supposed to behave like. Thee rule is “ do what you want to do” slip sliding away....
That’s what I think. But then what would the trannies do?
