A pub trivia goer has shared a question that stumped them, asking Redditors for help.

"From pub trivia, mate left before getting the answer, any ideas?" they asked on the forum's 'Australia' thread.

They posed the question alongside a photo of a puzzle featuring five images – two appearing to be the silhouette of a woman's head and three symbols usually seen on the door of men's public restrooms.
