The head of a Tennessee school board has resigned his position after controversy over his part in inventing a beer bottle opener shaped like a woman’s buttocks failed to go away, according to The Tennessean.

Longtime board member Mark Gregory stepped down on Thursday as chairman of the Williamson County school board — a position he was appointed to two weeks ago — but will remain on the board.

Gregory’s elevation to chairman heated a up a long simmering dispute over his position on the board in light of his role in helping create the ‘ButtleOpener,’ a bottle opener located inside a life-sized female-shaped posterior.

Parents and other board members have been critical of Gregory since he launched the “Buttleopener’ in 2012, and protests increased with his elevation to chairman.

5. I think it's an outrage.

The lack of a male model is not only sexist, but leaves profits from the female market on the table!

And just in time for the holidays...

9. I think they should have made a hairy, male version

for the ladies beer bottles.

Frankly, this invention is a little crude and should only be located in adult areas (bars), but I don't thi k the guy should suffer repercussions.
