    According to a source article in French, the phrase is not “totally forbidden” and can be used in an acceptable context, as judged by the parliament’s president (who’s role is mostly to act as a moderator for the debates)…

    They claimed that it was forbidden because the context implied that the government was exploiting women, which is seen as assigning negative intentions to other MPs…

    It’s still fucking weird and borderlines on censure! Technically, it does not prevent talking about a ICRC report on women exploitation, but I feel like it could have a chilling effect.
