A new bar has opened in the UK with strict rules forbidding men from approaching women.<\/p>\n
Dear Sailor, which is described as \u2018a beautiful cocktail bar inspired by the speakeasies and jazz bars of 1930s Tokyo,\u00a0opened up last weekend in Spinningfields, Manchester.<\/p>\n
However according to Manchester Evening News\u00a0the venue appears to come with some strict rules for customers to abide.<\/p>\n
These include ‘no name-dropping’ and an edict that ‘gentlemen will not introduce themselves to ladies.’<\/p>\n
If a man dares to break the rule, the bar has advised women to simply \u2018lift your chin slightly and ignore him\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dear Sailor, which is described as \u2018a beautiful cocktail bar inspired by the speakeasies and jazz bars of 1930s Tokyo, opened up last weekend in Spinningfields, Manchester<\/p>\n
However women are free to introduce themselves to men or they can simply ask the bartender to make the introduction.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sme of the other quirky rules include ‘no fighting, no play fighting, and no talking about fighting’.<\/p>\n
And the new venue asks customers to not \u2018bring anyone unless you would leave that person alone in your home’ because ‘you are responsible for the behaviour of your guests.’<\/p>\n
1. No name-dropping, no star f**king.<\/p>\n
2. No shouting, or other loud behaviour.<\/p>\n
3. No fighting, no play fighting, no talking about fighting.<\/p>\n
4. Gentlemen can remove their hats. Hooks are provided if necessary.<\/p>\n
5. Ladies, feel free to start a conversation or ask the bartender to introduce you. If a man you don\u2019t know speaks to you, please lift your chin slightly and ignore him.<\/p>\n
6. Do not linger outside the front door.<\/p>\n
7. Shoes off when dancing on the furniture.<\/p>\n
8. No sports wear\/caps.<\/p>\n
9. Do not bring anyone unless you would leave that person alone in your\u00a0 home. You are responsible for the behaviour of your guests.<\/p>\n
10. Exit the bar briskly and silently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
11. Please make all your travel plans and say all farewells before leaving the bar.<\/p>\n
Co-owner Christian Coates told the publication\u00a0that the rules are slightly tongue in cheek, but says they\u2019re all intended to encourage customers to be respectful of each other and the venue.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He said: ‘It’s a case of people knowing what to expect when they arrive but we’re also expecting a level of conduct from them too. So everyone comes in the same frame of mind.<\/p>\n
‘They will be ever evolving and there’s a few more to be added after this weekend. But rules are made to be broken too.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Christian revealed the new venue is like a members’ club ‘without the snootiness’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the 1930s, Tokyo was known for its bars that became busy speakeasies were people would gather after hours to indulge in forbidden goods from overseas like music, food and alcohol.\u00a0<\/p>\n
