French minister Marlene Schiappa to appear on Playboy front cover
Marlene Schiappa will be on the cover of the French edition of the magazine fully clothed and has given an interview to the publication on women’s rights and LGBTQ+ issues. Ms Shiappa, who is the current minister for the social economy and French associations, has long campaigned for gender equality and spearheaded a French law banning cat-calling and the harassment of women. Her decision has prompted criticism from politicians in France as the country is rocked by widespread unrest at president Emmanual Macron’s reforms to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64.
