If you’ve been to Paris you know that ‘appreciative’ wolf whistling is part of the French culture, though it can certainly make a woman uncomfortable.Now French President Macron has set up a gender equality department to change the ‘macho culture in France’ making it illegal to harass people in a public place.
Heading the department is  Marlene Schiappa who agrees that sexual harassment on the street is a ‘huge phenomenon’ in France. The department is looking at fines and other ways to curb the harassment.
