The mayor of El Naranjo, a municipality in San Luis Potosรญ, Mexico, has ignited controversy after posting a video invitation for a Father's Day celebration that included the promise of "chicas buena onda" (good vibe girls) as part of the entertainment.
Mayor Rafael Olvera Torres shared the video on official social media accounts to invite residents to the event, scheduled at the union hall of Section 97. The celebration was advertised to include food, drinks, snacks, gifts, a comedy show, and a mechanical bull.
There will also be some good vibe girls there to liven up the night.
However, the mayor's specific remarks during the invitation quickly drew attention and mixed reactions online. He advised attendees to leave children at home to "have the best time" and "have a great time." He also suggested that guests bring their own beverages.
Don't bring children so you can have the best time, have a great time.
Adding to the unusual nature of the invitation, Olvera Torres directed a message to the wives and partners of the attendees, saying, "Let us go, moms, you will have a great time. We will take care of them there."
The video's content prompted a divided response on social media. Some users found the mayor's statements humorous, while others questioned the appropriateness of such a message from a public official. Critics pointed out the incongruity of a municipal leader promoting an event with potentially suggestive entertainment and adult-oriented advice.
Let us go, moms, you will have a great time. We will take care of them there.
