Whether it’s a wooden penis engraved with the name of a tourist hotspot – often doubling as a bottle opener – or postcards featuring scantily-clad ladies, unfortunately, there’s something for everyone in the world’s souvenir stores. But these tasteless items seem to belong in another age.

For the Esquerra party, which represents Catalonia’s republican left in Spain, this type of souvenir is offensive. Indeed, certain items have been deemed sexist or homophobic, such as T-shirts with questionable slogans.
