Overview
- A local peña called 'Un forat es un forat' used a logo showing a naked woman being sexually assaulted by a bull on T‑shirts, paper bags and its cadafal in the bullring where hundreds, including children, saw it.
- The Coordinadora Feminista del Camp de Morvedre condemned the image as denigrating, asked the town hall to clarify any municipal funding or space concessions for the peña, and stressed it was critiquing a public portrayal rather than alleging a criminal assault.
- The Generalitat Valenciana's Dirección General de Igualdad issued an official denunciation saying the representation contributes to the denigration, objectification, or ridicule of women.
- Municipal sources say the poster is not currently exhibited and officials channelled concerns through the festivals department, which engaged the peña and proposed a working group to prevent similar images in future editions.
- The dispute has focused public attention on how long‑standing festival practices intersect with modern equality norms and could lead to administrative reviews of permits and clearer rules for peñas' imagery in future fiestas.
