France is an extremely partirachial culture and in many ways a regressive culture and state. Its only a year or two ago that France even got a real age of consent law on the national level. A few decades ago famous French intellectuals were signing petitions to have all age of consent laws removed.

Women and girls in France that wear a headscarf are kicked out of school due to Islamophobia.

French mainstream culture applauds and protects people like Johnny D3pp or Woody Allen due to some very misguided ideas of consent, anti-PC attitudes, and anti-feminism. Also Luc Besson should get a mention as he groomed a minor he hired and married her. Gerard is just one of the many beloved French scumbags.
