法國立法抵制“過瘦”模特

為預防年輕人被模特的形象誤導而患上厭食癥，法國政府日前正式公布兩項抵制“過瘦”模特的法令，要求所有對模特外形作出修圖處理的商業(yè)圖片都必須配有“圖片經(jīng)修改”標簽，并規(guī)定在法國從業(yè)的模特都必須提供醫(yī)生開具的健康證明。

A law in France banning the use of unhealthily thin fashion models has come into effect.
法國一項禁止過瘦模特從業(yè)的法律近日生效。

Models will need to provide a doctor's certificate attesting to their overall physical health, with special regard to their body mass index (BMI) - a measure of weight in relation to height.
模特需要提供醫(yī)生證明，以證實其整體健康狀況，證明中需注明其身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)，這是一種根據(jù)身高體重比例衡量胖瘦程度的標準。

The health ministry says the aim is to fight eating disorders and inaccessible ideals of beauty.
法國衛(wèi)生部門表示，此舉旨在抵制進食障礙以及難以達到的以瘦為美的理念。

Digitally altered photos will also have to be labelled from 1 October.
從10月1日起，經(jīng)過數(shù)碼修改過的圖片也需注明。

Images where a model's appearance has been manipulated will need to be marked photographie retouchée (English: retouched photograph).
模特的身材經(jīng)過修飾的圖片需注明“圖片經(jīng)修改”。

A previous version of the bill had suggested a minimum BMI for models, prompting protests from modelling agencies in France.
此前的法案版本建議為模特設(shè)置身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)最低值，但這遭到了法國模特機構(gòu)的抗議。

But the final version, backed by MPs 2015, allows doctors to decide whether a model is too thin by taking into account their weight, age, and body shape.
法案的最終版本允許醫(yī)生綜合考慮模特的體重、年齡、和體型來決定一位模特是否過瘦。這一版本在2015年受到議員們的支持。

Employers breaking the law could face fines of up to 75,000 euros and up to six months in jail.
違反此項法規(guī)的雇主將面臨高達7.5萬歐元（約合56.8萬元人民幣）罰款以及長達半年監(jiān)禁。

"Exposing young people to normative and unrealistic images of bodies leads to a sense of self-depreciation and poor self-esteem that can impact health-related behaviour," said France's Minister of Social Affairs and Health, Marisol Touraine, in a statement on Friday, French media report.
據(jù)法國媒體報道，法國社會事務(wù)和衛(wèi)生部長瑪麗索爾-杜函娜上周五在聲明中說：“向年輕人展示有示范意義但不切實際的身材圖片會導致自我貶低和自尊心不足，進而影響健康相關(guān)行為。”

France is not the first country to legislate on underweight models - Italy, Spain and Israel have all done so.
法國并非首個立法抵制過瘦模特的國家，意大利、西班牙和以色列都曾采取此類舉措。

Anorexia affects between 30,000 to 40,000 people in France, 90% of whom are women.
法國有3萬到4萬人飽受厭食癥困擾，其中90%是女性。
