French minister under fire for Playboy magazine cover | CNN

OMG, I'm like totally baffled by this news ! So Marlene Schiappa is literally a pro-women's rights advocate and then she ends up on the front cover of Playboy promoting an interview... it just doesn't add up, you know? Like, isn't that kinda a contradiction or something? And I can see why some ppl would be upset, but at the same time, Schiappa is all about women's empowerment and autonomy... so is she really compromising her values by doing this? Maybe she had no other options or something, idk . What do you guys think? Should ppl be judged based on their appearances or should we separate the issue from Schiappa's actual policies and stance?

I think it's awesome that Marlene Schiappa stepped out of her comfort zone to promote women's rights on the cover of Playboy . People need to chill out and not get so hung up on one photo op. It's all about representation, and if she wants to show the world what a strong, sexy woman looks like while fighting for equality, then let her rock that white dress . I'm loving how she's owning it and saying "in France, women are free" - who doesn't love a good dose of confidence and self-love? Besides, Schiappa is still an icon in the feminist movement, and one magazine cover isn't gonna bring her down .

omg i'm literally shocked by this one... marlene schiappa is like, super iconic in france and you can't just throw a blowout like that and then she goes on record saying "women are free" but at the same time there's all these people calling her out for it i feel like this is a total mess

anyway, one thing i do think is interesting is how this whole thing highlights just how complicated things can get when you're in politics especially with schiappa being super outspoken on women's rights and then suddenly she's on the cover of playboy i mean, i get it, she was trying to promote a feminist interview, but like... wasn't there a better way to do that?

i think what really gets me is how this whole thing is being framed in france - like, it's not even a huge scandal or anything but still, there's all these people having strong opinions about it and i'm just over here thinking... can't we just talk about the actual issues at hand?

omg i'm so confused about marlene schiappa's decision to appear on playboy... she's all about promoting women's rights & empowering women in france, but then she goes & poses for a men's mag? idk if it's a clever move or just a huge mistake lol. either way, it's got everyone talking . as someone who's passionate about wellness & self-love, i think schiappa needs to focus on spreading positive vibes & not gettin' bogged down by the negativity. let her use that platform to uplift women instead of just bein' a controversy magnet .

It's wild that she's getting roasted by her own party for promoting women's rights while posing in Playboy... I mean, if it's really about being a woman of character, then why is she even apologizing for it? As far as I see, the real issue here is how out of touch some people are with the times. Women have the right to make choices about their own bodies, and if that means appearing in a magazine like Playboy, then so be it. It's all about freedom and empowerment... or should we say, freedom from judgment? The fact that she's still getting support from her colleagues is great to see though!

I'm shocked that people are still having this conversation. I mean, come on, it's just a picture . Marlene Schiappa is doing what she thinks is best for women's rights, and if that means appearing in Playboy to make her point, then so be it. She shouldn't be judged by one photo, especially when she's been fighting for equality for years. The fact that some of her own party members are calling out her appearance as "not appropriate" just shows how uptight they can be. Meanwhile, the real issue is Macron's pension reforms and how he's pushing them through despite massive opposition . Schiappa's move might be a distraction from that, but let's not forget what's really going on in France right now.
