A recognized and popular author and tv host has created quite a stir, after he has claimed that he is ‘unable’ to love a woman who is over 50 years old.
This writes the british media The Guardian and the BBC.
In an interview to the French damemagasin Marie Claire, says Yann Moix, how he will have his ladies:
‘I prefer the body of a younger woman. The end. The body of a 25-year-old is extraordinary. The body of a 50-year-old is not particularly special at all’.

In the interview, he says also that he prefers asian women. In particular, women from Korea, China and Japan.
‘It is, perhaps, sad and simplification to the women I go out with, but I am ashamed of no way’, sounds also from Moix in the interview.
Yann Moix has won numerous literary awards including the prestigious Prix Goncourt for his debut short story. In addition, he has directed three films and can currently be seen as host of a popular French tv talk show.
the Comments have caused a stir and anger on social media. The 52-year-old journalist and writer Colombe Schneck has tried to make Moix to be ashamed about to share (It has since deleted) a easier pirende image of his own buttocks on his Instagram account with the message:
‘Voila, the hindquarters of a 52-year-old woman…What a fool you are. You have no idea what you miss, you and your little tykmavede brain’.

The French member of parliament Olivia Gregoire, who also is the spokeswoman for the Macrons political party, La République en Marche (LREM), also gave his verdict on twitter:
‘Very classic Yann Moix. Very, very classic. But, like stupidity and smagløshed not have any age, it’s reassuring in his case, as I doubt that very many women are going to have (these qualities).
