Problems in section Governancesubsection Law   The following paragraph reads  France does not recognize religious law nor does it recognize religious beliefs or morality as a motivation for the enactment of prohibitions As a consequence France has long had neither blasphemy laws nor sodomy laws the latter being abolished in  However offenses against public decency contraires aux bonnes murs or disturbing public order trouble  lordre public have been used to repress public expressions of homosexuality or street prostitution With such emphasis on public order laws sentencing racism sexism or antisemitism are also old and important For instance laws prohibiting discriminatory speech in the press are as old as  Some consider however that hate speech laws in France are too broad or severe and damage freedom of speech  This has to be removed or at least rewritten because it is incorrect and not supported by the source given The fact that France does not recognize religious law is true this can and should stay The fact that is doesnt recognize morality as a source of law is not If so why was adultery illegal until  Even worse why were children born from adultery discriminated in inheritance up until  when France was forced to change its law by the European Court of Human Rights  In regard to sexism which is addressed here  France was one of the last Western countries to recognize the rights of women  vote for women only in  women could not work without the consent of husband until  leniency for crimes of passion under the Napoleonic Code etc Lets not even open this subject Also the source given does not support what the paragraph is saying it only explains some laws against racism and antisemitism Im removing the paragraph
