Horse breeding promotional material ‘unprofessional’, says rape crisis group

Promotional material for horse breeding services which features a woman straddling a man has been criticised as “unprofessional” by the Rape Crisis Network of Ireland (RCNI).

The double-sided glossy flyer features a suggestive photograph of a woman straddling a man, with the caption: ‘It’s in the genes. The Uncle, the Niece, the Cousin.’

The back of the glossy promotional flyer features pictures of three horses — Big Bad Bob, who commands a fee of €6,000 for stud services; Elusive Pimpernel, a mare who commands an upfront of €1,000, and Snow Fairy.
