Martine Martinel
French politician
Martine Martinel (born 26 September 1953) was a member of the National Assembly of France from 2007 to 2017. She represented Haute-Garonne's 4th constituency, as a member of the Socialiste, radical, citoyen et divers gauche.
On 28 February 2013, The Commission des affaires culturelles et de l’éducation, of which Martinel was part, voted in favour of an amendment proposed by Martine Faure, and favoured by Yves Durand, Marie-George Buffet and Martinel among others, to replace, in the national elementary curriculum, the biological concept of "sex" with the concept of "gender" to include a social dimension. The elementary curriculum was successfully revised in September 2013 under the name "l'ABCD de l'egalite".

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Martine Martinel”, the useful work is to connect “french politician” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3295812. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1953, 2007, 2017 and 2013.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
