AIBU to Think That DJ Shouting 'SEXAYY' at a School Disco with 4-Year-Olds is Absolutely Ridiculous?

[PlumMentor]

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share my recent experience at my child's school disco and get your thoughts on whether I'm being unreasonable or not.

So, picture this: I'm at the school disco, surrounded by a bunch of adorable 4-year-olds who are having the time of their lives, dancing away to some catchy tunes. Everything seems great, until the DJ decides to shout "SEXAYY" over the speakers.

Now, call me old-fashioned, but I couldn't believe my ears. I mean, what on earth was the DJ thinking? A school disco is supposed to be a fun and innocent event for young children, not a nightclub.

I understand that DJs want to create a lively atmosphere, but there's a time and a place for everything, right? And in my opinion, shouting suggestive phrases like that at a school event with 4-year-olds is just plain ridiculous.

Am I being unreasonable to expect better from the DJ? Shouldn't they be more mindful of the young audience they're entertaining? Or am I just an old hag?

I’ve been rewatching Phoenix Nights this week.

im imagining Jerry Saint Clair doing a bit of compering

At thirst I thought op had experienced the same with a dj named Ray Von! Truly confused me

I'd complain to the school too.

It's not right.

Agreed.

If you haven’t seen Phoenix Nights, OP then let this thread convince you.

I'm sorry, that's why I explained the joke. Sorry for ruining it, as previous @soupfiend said.

Its OK XD

Didnt ruin it, just snapped me out of confusion!

Is it on the beeb iplayer?

Agreed, seems like some sort of perv.

"thanks very much for organising the disco. My child loved it. I'd like to feedback that the DJ repeatedly used the word sexy to describe the children's dancing. It made me feel uncomfortable. I would appreciate you considering choosing a different DJ next time you run a disco, or feeding back to this DJ that the language used was not appropriate given the children's age."

I will use this for the email, thanks so much!

I'd complain to the school that is vile. Disgusting vile man why on earth did no one stop him. Who was protecting the children?!?!

No absolute idea to both questions.

The only person in my life who ever referred to small children being "sexy" turned out to be a paedophile.
Why would anyone think that's remotely OK?

Omg what the fuck have I just read. I'd say something to the school for sure, I'm sure they won't hire him again! Revolting!!

Does this man need reporting to the police? Someone needs to check his computer

NO absolute idea either!

Some ill-thought-out DJ spiel is worthy of reporting to the police?

No wonder the police are run ragged and getting nowhere.

Jesus, is he advertising that he's a nonce? A Saville wannabe?

I’m not prudish at all but I wouldn’t find this appropriate at all.

Not ok at all. It’s actually a serious moral transgression. They are 4.

SHABBA!

Shabba !

This is the language of a paedophile. Massively concerning.

Formal complaint to the school and the DJ company and public review from me, it is so so inappropriate.

i don’t know how you didn’t go over at the time and say something!!!
