Standpoint

Francoise de Panafieu refused the forced feminization of the words and the functions continuing to sign her mails by the heading The deputy and mayor , position conforms to that of the French Academy and to the traditional letters . Thus adopting the same position as Elisabeth Badinter she took party against the law on the Parité, estimating that it was only about one law alibi, devaluing and insulting for the women. She posted herself against the lengthening of the time of the Voluntary interruption of pregnancy (IVG) from 10 to 12 weeks, against the Pilule of the following day and against the PaCS by attachment with traditional family values .

Since 2002, the deputy, is member of the UMP, exit partly of old RPR.
