La Generalitat Valenciana denuncia un cartel sexista en las fiestas de Sagunto

The Valencian Generalitat has denounced a sexist poster displayed during the recent Sagunt festivities (in Valencia). Under the title "Un forat es un forat" (A hole is a hole), the discriminatory poster depicted a bull sexually assaulting a naked woman. The General Directorate of Equality of the Valencian Generalitat expressed its "utmost rejection of any representation that contributes to demeaning, objectifying, or ridiculing women."

In the 21st century, following significant progress in gender equality achieved through the efforts of the entire society, we cannot normalize or justify images that perpetuate sexist stereotypes or portray women as subordinate or humiliated. Such manifestations have no place in a society aspiring to be more equal, respectful, and free from discrimination, stated the autonomous administration.
