“Of course abortion is threatened!!! […] As long as there are men like you, we will all be in danger” It is in these words that the actress Sophie Marceau attacked Gérard Larcher, the LR president of the Senate, on the burning issue of the entry into the constitution of this right to abortion. This January 25 2024, the subject came back to the table of Pascal Praud, on Europe 1, who caught a very angry listener on the air.
“Sophie Marceau is very violent in her comments“
The latter estimated: “I find that Sophie Marceau is very violent in her comments, it is completely unjustified. For what ? Because, you know, I am 68 years old, and I remember very well this law which dates back to 1875, which was passed by Mrs. Simone Veil. And so this law being enacted, it’s a guarantee, you see. And this abortion is guaranteed by law, that’s what I mean. So bringing it to the constitution, I don’t see the point. There would be so many other subjects to deviate from European law, if you know what I mean.”
And Pascal Praud defends: “No, but it’s a symbol in fact, and it’s a fight. And it bothers me to speak, because I want to say that obviously men are concerned, because they experience it in society, but it is still women who must first and foremost ‘express on this subject’.
“I think it’s completely demagogic“
Opposite, the listener became even more angry and shared: “I’m 68 years old, I’ve already had an abortion twice in my life, without any problem. Women who want to have an abortion today can do so without any problem. So I don’t see the point.” And to tackle frankly: “Finally, if, for Ms. Marceau, it is perhaps as a woman and a feminist, obviously a feminist, to rally all her fans to her, that she would make comments like that. I think it is completely demagogic , well, that’s my point of view. You actually know all these right-thinking people there, always on the left, but who vote on the right, of course…”
