巴黎:"女人不得穿裤子"禁令有望废除

发布时间：2016-03-04 编辑：查字典英语网小编

【英文原文】

A law banning women from wearing trousers in Paris may finally be lifted more than two centuries after first being enforced。

　　The curious rule was first introduced in late 1799 by Paris\' police chief, and stipulated than any Parisienne wishing to "dress like a man" must seek special permission from the city\'s main police station。

　　But a group of ten French MPs has now submitted a draft bill to parliament to remove the law, which has survived repeated attempts to repeal it。

　　The latest attempt to remove the outmoded rule was in 2003, when a Right-wing MP from President Nicolas Sarkozy\'s UMP party wrote to the minister in charge of gender equality. The minister\'s response was: "Disuse is sometimes more efficient than (state) intervention in adapting the law to changing morays."
