Blue White Red! relayed a remark from Guillaume Roquette directed at Bally Bagayoko, LFI mayor of Saint-Denis. Roquette reportedly criticized him for claiming to be opposed to excision without having voted in favor of a motion against this practice, considering that it was "a bit complicated." https://t.co/fuHWs9yqbk #DroitsDesFemmes #Excision #SaintDenis (translated)

Bally Bagayoko explained that his group abstained during the vote on a wish presented by the opposition elected officials from the Socialist, Environmentalists, and Citizens group at the municipal council. The text focused on the protection of girls and women against excision and female genital mutilation, as well as the adoption of a comprehensive law against sexist and sexual violence (SSV). He said that his group supported the fight against mutilations and reminded that nearly 500 patients received follow-up each year in the municipality. He also praised the work of the Women's House, Delafontaine Hospital, and various associations, and asked the State to strengthen the resources allocated for prevention and medical follow-up. According to Bally Bagayoko, the abstention concerned the request to quickly adopt the law on SSV. He indicated that the bill had been significantly amended in committee at the National Assembly the week of the municipal council, and its content remained uncertain. His group had asked to remove references to this law from the wish in order to be able to vote in favor of the text on the fight against excision, but the opposition had refused, he wrote. He believed that this refusal had hindered the pursuit of an agreement and denounced a political instrumentalization of the issue. The group ultimately abstained in order not to block the wish, which was adopted, while not supporting all of its content, he noted. #Excision #DroitsDesFemmes #LutteContreLesViolences (translated)

Nasss explained that the person concerned had abstained because the text was being rewritten in the National Assembly by the right and the far right, and therefore did not know its final version. According to Nasss, she had requested that the two subjects be separated and that the concerned mention be removed in order to vote only on female genital mutilation, but the opposition had refused. Nasss believed that a favorable vote would have led to approving a rewritten text whose content was uncertain, while a vote against could have made her appear in favor of female genital mutilation. #Politique #AssembléeNationale #Excision (translated)

Bally Bagayoko explained that his group, the majority "Together Let's Find Hope," abstained during the municipal council on September 24, 2026, on a wish put forward by the Socialist, Ecologist, and Citizen group against female genital mutilation and excision. He stated that his group supported the measures in the text against excision, notably the strengthening of state resources for school medicine, medical follow-up, and prevention. He also reminded that nearly 500 patients were followed each year in the municipality and praised the work of the Women's House, Delafontaine Hospital, and various associations. According to him, his group had requested the withdrawal of the wish's calls for the rapid adoption of a comprehensive law against gender-based and sexual violence (GBSV), as the bill had been significantly amended in committee at the National Assembly during the week of the council and still needed further amendments. Bagayoko stated that his group could therefore not support a text whose final content was uncertain and on which they had reservations. He added that the opposition elected officials still present had refused the proposed amendments, while most had left the session before its conclusion. His group had abstained, he specified, while allowing the wish to be adopted. He finally affirmed that his determination to fight against excision in the municipality and beyond remained unwavering. #Excision #DroitsDesFemmes #LutteContreLesMutilations (translated)

Si les islamistes décident demain que l’excision est une pratique religieuse (ce à quoi ils ne se sont jamais clairement opposés) , dira-t-on que son interdiction est une entrave à la liberté religieuse et de pratique. Souvenons-nous, le voilement obligatoire des filles s’est imposé en France parce que les autorités religieuses islamiques ont dû changer d’avis sous la pression des Frères musulmans. C’est à l’Etat de décider ce qui est acceptable ou non, au nom du peuple français. (Creil, 1989) #Liberté #Laïcité #Égalité

Petit rappel nécessaire. En France, l’excision n’est ni une « tradition » ni une pratique culturelle que l’on pourrait tolérer : c’est une mutilation sexuelle et un crime. - Une mutilation ayant entraîné une infirmité permanente peut être punie de 10 ans d’emprisonnement et 150 000 € d’amende. - Lorsqu’elle est commise sur une mineure de moins de 15 ans, la peine peut atteindre 15 ans de réclusion criminelle, voire davantage selon les circonstances aggravantes. Et faire subir une excision à une jeune fille à l’étranger ne permet pas nécessairement d’échapper à la justice française. Protéger les femmes, nos filles, c’est aussi refuser le silence et dénoncer ces faits. Aucune tradition, aucune coutume, aucune pression familiale ne justifiera jamais que l’on mutile le corps d’une femme ou d’une enfant ! #ContrelExcision #DroitsHumains #StopExcision #Égalité

L’excision est un exemple de l’essor, en France, de pratiques culturelles incompatibles avec les valeurs de notre société. Alors que la lutte contre les violences envers les femmes sont, à juste titre, une cause importante, on entend pourtant peu de voix la condamner… #feminisme #violencesfaitesauxfemmes #droitsdesfemmes
