Unspoiled by Feminism: A culture of support and respect for their husband
A DATING agency's sleazy offer of Czech women "unspoiled by feminism" was slammed yesterday.
Protesters have demanded that council officials investigate the activities of the Hand In Hand agency, whose website features the women in skimpy clothing and underwear.
They promise clients women 10 to 20 years younger than them who are "unspoiled by feminism at a very affordable price".
It also claims they are "beautiful, intelligent and educated" and have a "culture of support and respect for their husband".

She said: "Its approach to women would be offensive to anyone, male or female. The implication is it is about the ability to buy a bride.
"As well as the offence it could cause to members of the public, the leaflet must raise concerns about exploitation of women in the Czech Republic."
Another woman who complained said: "The small print on the leaflets probably explains the women cost a couple of goats and half a dozen chickens and that they always look forward to their daily beatings."
Police have also been made aware of the agency's leafleting activities.
Dundee councillor Joe Morrow pledged to act yesterday after receiving a number of complaints.
He said: "Material like this is frankly disgusting and I am certain that everyone in Dundee will share my revulsion that it is being handed out in public."
A spokesman for Hand In Hand in Dundee, one of a number of franchises of the agency in the UK, insisted they were above board. He added: "We are simply an introduction agency and not a buy-a-bride service."
But it emerged last night that Hand In Hand have been criticised by websites investigating internet scams and blacklisted by one - agencyscams.com.
Their investigator said: "I first ran across this agency three years ago. All the girls are the same as then. Bad sign."
