I consider myself as a feminist, but I was very surprised to read today that a law project will be proposed this afternoon in front of the French deputees to oblige company to hire more women. We are in 2010 now and we have to do that. That’s ashamed and means women still have less rights than men.

Figures
Apparently France, country of Human rights (in French if we translate it’s Men rights….), we are behind most of European countries in term of women at the head of big companies. Between 9 and 10% of women are in governing board of big companies. Far behind Norway (41%), Sweden (27%) and Finland (20%).
So a law…
Regarding those figures, they want to propose a law that imposes in 6 years a quota of 40% of women in governing board of the companies that are in the stock exchange. I feel sorry for that. I was thinking there were no difference in term of work anymore. But I disagree to make a law for that. I think in proving our power it needs to be done. I feel shit as a woman my country needs to do something for me to impose my skills. I’m sorry it happens in 2010, I’m sorry for all people who are still considered as a minority.
But Whokares!!!!
