Win a wife contest pulled...
a case for polygamy.
Activists of the Ukrainian feminist movement Femen shout slogans and hold placards reading "Ukraine is not a brothel" and "Bride for wild man" in front of Marriage Palace in central Kiev on Tuesday to protest a "win a wife" competition organized by a New Zealand radio station.
"This is the only effective way to protest," Femen organizer Anna Gutsol said in an interview with CNN.
The controversial contest is billed by The Rock FM station in New Zealand as the "Win a Trip To Beautiful Ukraine for 12 Nights and Meet Eastern European Hot Lady Who Maybe One Day You Marry" competition.
The competition is run in conjunction with a matchmaking service, Endless Love Agency, that claims to be "100% New Zealand owned and operated" and pitched exclusively at New Zealand citizens searching for Ukrainian wives.
The Endless Love Agency website, which looks like it may have been a cutting-edge design in 1995, also offers guided "romance tours" of Ukraine.
The Rock FM station, branded as "Bands, Babes, Balls, 'n' Bull," announced the winner as a man called "Greg the Winemaker."
Asked to describe the "dumbest gift" he'd ever given a woman, he responded, "A custom-made flame retardant racing suit and helmet with my racing team logos embroidered."
