In the care room of a Clermont-Ferrand boarding school, future doctors drew a collective rape with allusions to the Minister of Health. The CNOM condemns without reservation.
A drawing that causes scandal! This is the story that is currently taking place in a boarding school in Clermont-Ferrand (63) where future doctors have drawn a fresco featuring a woman dressed as Wonder Woman who suffers a gang rape. One of the attackers said to him “Hey, the Health Law!” », Another« Take it very deep ». The post has since been deleted. Faced with this story that is gaining momentum in the media, the Order of Physicians was keen to react. He gives his full support to the Minister of Health, Marisol Touraine.
The Order of Physicians unreservedly condemns
Indeed, in a press release published on Monday, the National Council of the Order of Physicians (CNOM) “strongly and unreservedly condemns” the production and dissemination of this fresco.
In addition, the president of the Ordre des Médecins du Puy-de-Dôme, from Monday morning at 9 a.m., met the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, the director general of the Clermont-Ferrand university hospital and the director general of the Regional Health Agency in order to give “the appropriate follow-up to this unacceptable affair”, writes the CNOM.
To conclude, the National Council, “fully committed to the prevention of violence against women with the Ministry of Social Affairs, Health and Women’s Rights”, indicates that it will remain “vigilant” on the follow-up given to this affair. .
Feminist associations wind up
For their part, feminist associations were also quick to react. This is the case of “Dare feminism” which in a Press release published Sunday asks the National Council of the Order of Physicians (CNOM) to “react as quickly as possible, to remove this fresco and to sanction those who are responsible for it.” “
She writes: “The -future- doctors use the representation of rape to show their dissatisfaction with a Minister of Health (Marisol Touraine) and her law (Bill of Health). It is a misogynistic threat in its direction. Rape is a macho technique of annihilating women. For the authors of these bubbles, a minister is above all a woman: an under-being that one can punish, dominate and appropriate if she dissatisfies their desires – or their political demands. “
75,000 adult women raped every year
And to make as many people as possible understand why this drawing is inadmissible, the feminist association recalls that cases of rape in our country are far from exceptional: “in France, each year, 75,000 adult women are raped. Rape is also massively unpunished. We must fight against this type of “dirty” representations of patriarchal crimes to put an end to the culture of rape, and the impunity of those guilty of these crimes. These representations eroticize extreme violence. They promote the oppressive ideology that motivates them: that of the dehumanization of girls and women. “Under the guise of” sexuality “of” freedom “of” Gauloiserie “, they constitute an incitement to degrade women”, adds Dare feminism.
Finally, joined by why actor, the press service of the Ministry of Health indicated that Marisol Touraine had not yet reacted to the case.
