The prizes awarded at the 2023 women’s race, which took place this Sunday in Madrid, are causing controversy across Spain. The race, now in its 19th year to celebrate Mother’s Day, has awarded the winner a kitchen robot. The rest of the participants received products with 0% fat.
In accordance with WorldSpain’s secretary of state for equality and combating gender-based violence, Angela Rodríguez “Pam”, called the prizes sexist: “If you succeed, you will become a housewife.
The organization of the race, which was attended by 32,000 participants, issued a statement deploring the controversy, saying that the kitchen robot was not a prize, but a gift from sponsors. “We’re sorry if any of the women were offended, but we believe this is not a sexist product and is ideal for any athlete looking to improve their eating habits,” Twitter said.
