This Three women, who remain anonymous, have joined forces with the leading French feminist group ‘Osez le feminisme’ (Dare to be feminist) to file a complaint against Miss France accusing them of discrimination for allegedly selecting contestant winners based on their appearance.
Osez le feminism has long protested against Miss France, calling it a ‘vehicle for sexist values’.
The lawsuit alleges the pageant is in violation of French labor law by having discriminatory selection criteria, obliging aspiring winners to be more than 5ft 5in (1.65m) tall, single and ‘representative of beauty’.
French labor law forbids companies from discriminating on the basis of ‘morals, age, family status or physical appearance.
