France unveils plan to halt violence against women

The figure shows no improving trend — last year, 121 women lost their lives in femicides.

The announcements by Philippe focussed on ending what he described as “absurdities” and “dysfunctional aspects” in the law to ensure that women would be better protected. And in a measure that has been widely called for, Philippe said that the rules covering medical confidentiality would be changed making it easier for doctors to signal to the authorities when a person is at risk of violence.

Tens of thousands of people marched across France on Saturday in actions organised by the feminist group #NousToutes to demand an end to violence against women.

What about violence against men? I thought Europe was trying to be more egalitarian? This is sexism. Men are getting ignored to such devastating effects. Suicides are up, addictions are up, failure to have a family are up, depressions are up , etc, so this is not helping.
