These sorts of signs are installed in the women's bathroom and not the men's, so that women know the code and men don't. That way a woman can use the code to avoid a creep and the staff will understand, but the guy harassing her won't. If a gay man is being harassed, though, he doesn't know the code. And if a lesbian is harassing someone, she knows the code and it's therefore worthless.
Seems an obvious improvement would be to install a sign with a different code drink in the men's bathroom? It wouldn't work well for same-gender dates though
