Parents have hit out at a retail store accusing one of the babygrows it stocks of being “wildly inappropriate.”

While the majority of slogan babywear is either cute or funny, one particular babygrow has been criticised by parents for being sexually suggestive.

Originally spotted by a Mumsnet user in her local B&M store, the mum took to the parenting site to ask others if she was right to find the baby onesie offensive.

“Am I being unreasonable to think this baby grow is awful?” she titled the post, while also sharing an image of the item.

The babygrow in question was plain white and had the slogan “All mummy wanted was a back rub” emblazoned across the front.

And parents were quick to offer their opinions on the offending babygrow with many slamming the item as being completely inappropriate.

“If “Mummy” did not want sex, then she was raped. This trivialises rape and that is never okay. How are these things allowed to exist,” one parent wrote.

“AWFUL. I’d be tempted to report this or write a letter of complaint,” another added.

“Grim doesn’t feel strong enough and I don’t think we should be getting into the realms of sex references on kids clothing,” another user shared.

“Apart from the grossness of sex references on kids’ clothes, this actually seems to be saying that someone was raped!? Horrific,” a further mum commented.

Other parents shared stories of spotting kids clothes with similar sexually suggestive slogans.

“I saw one in Miami that said “I got this from my dad” above an arrow pointing to the baby’s penis, which is both gross and stupid because it implies the dad has a tiny baby dick,” one woman wrote.

“I’ve seen worse ‘all daddy wanted was a blow job’….my nephew was wearing it,” another user shared.

But not everyone was offended by the babygrow and amongst the outrage one user pointed out that the babygrow was obviously meant as a joke.

“Does no one here realise that they are meant as gag gifts. They do not make it seem like the mother was raped.”
