paragraph_text: Gender equality
  
  Simion in 2023 opposed the introduction of gender quotas in politics, stating that merit and preparation should prevail. He believed that in the last 30 years, the model of women in politics has been one of the easy woman, the mistress, and more recently, "the model of the street woman". Simion found the abortion legislation in 2024 to be sufficient, however, he did not regard the right to abortion as a fundamental human right and implicitly a constitutional right. In his opinion, doctors who refuse to perform abortions should not be compelled.
