“The development of these virilist words and behaviors leads to self-censorship, makes women invisible, and legitimizes hatred and violence.
These are the words pronounced by Leïla Chaibi, MEP La France insoumise, during a discussion in the European Parliament on online harassment of women, on June 9, 2021.
Insults, humiliating words… While women are 27 times more likely than men to be harassed online, several MEPs are raising their voices to denounce this daily violence.
For Leïla Chaibi, it is a brake on freedom of expression.
