“My impulsivity is a problem“, confided Bruno Pelat, the ex-partner of Iris Mittenaere after his ex-partner's complaint for domestic violence. The accused was finally sentenced to six months in prison.
His words made people cringe. They were part of a whole hyper-classic anti-MeToo rhetoric: we had also listed for you the worst “excuses” from guys accused of violence, in this recap. In terms of bogus arguments, there is still something to say (the recent speech by rapper Nekfeu was deciphered in this respect by feminists: we tell you about it in this detailed article), but some Internet users prefer to persist… On the complainant, and victim: the former Miss France and Miss Universe.
Yes, because Iris Mittenaere is trying to rebuild herself, but the announcement of her new crush wakes up the sexists. Originally, a simple photo revealed in the celebrity press, of the star lovingly kissing actor Sami Outalbali. Which annoys some people.
Absurd ? Wait, you haven't read anything yet…
“Hotness”: when a victim of domestic violence suffers slut shaming, the Iris Mittenaere case
“How can we still be here in 2024?“
This is how TikToker @margodgf asks in a widely commented and relayed publication. In this video, she shares with us all the reactions she has read about this new “crush” from the ex Miss, and it is deplorable as it should be: “in fifteen, twenty comments, the first that I was able to read, they call her a 'hottie', they say: 'she strings them along'… She would be a 'man-eater'… 'ah she goes quickly', 'ah she's not wasting time', 'already?!?'…”
But alas, this does not surprise us.
When the accused, found guilty, and former spouse Bruno Pelat was arrested and then placed in police custody, after the star filed a complaint, for physical and moral violence, some Internet users lacking sensational information already preferred to concentrate on… Iris Mittenaere's former relationships.
Understand: the Miss would “chain” relationships. So somewhere, she would be a little “at fault”, by coming across “the wrong one”. You are not dreaming, it is this type of reflection that is found on social networks. It's simple, we call it victim blaming: a phenomenon that we analyze for you here.
Judging a woman on her relationships and her sexuality, even when she has “officially” been recognized, before the courts, as the victim of an abusive relationship and domestic violence? An observation that says a lot about the most pernicious patriarchal violence. But who also often finds himself at the center of the reproaches made to the victims. In this article we talk to you about this whole phenomenon of victim/culprit inversion, and the guilt that is at its heart.
“All this irritated me, enough for me to pick up my phone to talk about it… My first reaction when I found out about her relationship was to say to myself: good for her, she met someone!“, concludes TikToker @margodgf. Rightly so.
