Opinion on MAP authorization for single/homosexual women in France, 1990-2021.
This statistic indicates the opinion of the French on the authorization of medically assisted procreation (MAP) for single women or homosexual women in France between 1990 and 2021. While in 1990, half of the French were already in favor of making MAP accessible to single women, only a quarter were in favor of authorization for lesbian couples. In 2021, both rates reached 67%.
Since 2021, MAP has been available to couples formed by two women and to single women.
