The second episode of First Dates served up a whole lot more controversy than the first, with one particular moment causing some viewers to choke on their dinners.
Before heading into the restaurant to meet her blind that 26-year-old Anna explained she was looking for a “gentleman”.
“I’m a firm believer that a woman needs to be a lady in the living room, a cook in the kitchen and a slut in the bedroom,” she told the cameras behind the scenes.
“Yeah, I just said that.”
She continued: "I would like to find a man who treats me like a lady — at least outside of bed — and then respectfully disrespects me when it comes to it.
"I've been single for six months, so I'd want to find gentleman who's tall and strong because I do like men carrying me around, especially when it's for breakfast."
While Anna's personal preferences in the bedroom are absolutely none of our business, her views on what women ought to be struck a nerve with some Australians.
Oddly enough, it's the second time in a fortnight the word "slut" has been dropped on an Aussie reality TV show at dinnertime, and this did not go unnoticed by many following along at home.
Two weeks ago My Kitchen Rules "villain" Josh Meeuwissen used the word to describe a female contestant while she handed him his plate.
Listen: This is why there's a huge problem with this season of My Kitchen Rules.
Regardless of her somewhat outdated views, however, unlike Josh, Anna proved to be rather charming by the end.
At least, her date 30-year-old David thought so judging solely by how many times he said "wow" and "wowee" as innuendo peaked around the pair's phallic banana-based dessert.
Happily, they both agreed a second date was in order and Anna vowed to "corrupt" him in the end.
Ahhh, new love.

We love Anna!
Just wanted to say that the reporting on the whole Josh incident really annoys me. What Josh said to Amy was wrong but she was also rude, she made an incredibly snide remark to him as she handed him his plate which was completely unnecessary and I don't blame him for saying something back. Yes he should never have called her a slut but she should not have been so rude to him in the first place. It's like picking a fight with someone and then getting upset when they fight back. Who cares if he was a dick the entire show, it doesn't mean it is ok to be mean to him. I'm not saying her actions justified his, they don't what so ever but the way it is reported is that she nicely handed him his plate and he called her a slut. Which is not what happened. Just because he was painted as the villain it is seen as ok to be rude and mean to him. Just because someone is mean to you doesn't mean you are allowed to be mean back. Do I agree with calling someone a slut, no, never but do I agree with making it seem like an unprovoked remark, also no. If Amy was a man it wouldn't have been reported in this way. People make mistakes fortunately for most of us they aren't broadcast on TV.
