"Don't Touch My Job" always starts in the same way, with a round-up of the latest news. This Thursday, October 26, it was about inclusive writing in the C8 talk. Indeed, the senators yesterday adopted in committee a bill aimed at "protecting the French language from the excesses of so-called inclusive writing".

The text by Senator Pascale Gruny (Les Républicains) plans to ban inclusive writing "in all cases where the legislator (and possibly the regulatory power) requires a document in French," AFP reported. This applies to user manuals, employment contracts or other company internal regulations, but also to legal acts.
"Well done! Michel Sardou and all those who were in favour of this law," commented Cyril Hanouna. A reference to the singer's recent statements that he "hates this century". "It was unbearable," adds the C8 troublemaker.
The language should be simplified, not complicated

Now it's the turn of the columnists to give their opinions. "It's useless. It's useless except to excite two or three injuries," says Guillaume Genton. "It's one of those causes that may be just, but with stupid means. The language must be simplified, not complicated," says Jacques Cardoze.
Gilles Verdez alone against all
Unsurprisingly, Gilles Verdez is against this bill: "But you are as sexist and out of touch with reality as the senators, that's what saddens me. You're crazy. Make an effort. There are millions of people who don't have a gender."
He continues his argument without convincing his audience. Like Jean-Michel Maire, who speaks directly to his comrade: "We could spend hours answering you, but when you see that everyone says 'Yes' and you're the only 'No', it's called an idiot's dinner. You're the only one."
