“The Playboy cover is a double provocation,” said the MEP Manon Aubryfrom the left-wing party La Francia Insumisa, in statements to Paris Match, “a feminist provocation, for giving an interview to talk about feminism in a medium that has broadcast macho clichés, and a provocation on a social level, in full mobilization for pensions ”.
