Perhaps the Worst Place for a Ruler

There is a hotel chain that employs a north-woodsie lodge motif. The have carved bears, kitschy signs and fishing accoutrements throughout the entire place. We have one of these hotels in our area and I was recently had some training there. At some point I had to use the facilities. Above the urinal you may notice a ruler (click to enbiggen).

This has something for both sexes. Men: even though the ruler is about a foot long, the numbers approach 36 inches. Women: on the left side it says "throw back" and on the right side it says "keeper". The only thing keeping this from being blatantly sexual is that it is label "Fisherman's Ruler", though I suspect it was actually a brilliant practical joke by the decorator.
