But men would also have the right to report their wives for verbal abuse。
Mr Fillon said: "It's an importantmove forward as the creation of this offence will let us tackle themost insidious situations, the ones that leave no physical scars butwhich still injure the victims inside."
But some experts have called the law agimmick that will be impossible to enforce, and that the governmentshould not interfere in non-violent domestic squabbles。
Anne Giraud, a psychologist, said:"Squabbling couples will allege all kinds of things about each other,but they won't necessarily be true。
"The police are likely to be calledout more and more when this law comes into force this year, but oftenit will be a case of one person's word against the other。
"Psychological violence is a very serious matter, but punishing it through the courts is a very different matter altogether."
Pierre Bonnet, a sociologist, added:"Next they will be making rudeness a crime, and the police and courtswill be overrun with work."
In 2008, 157 French women and sevenFrench men were killed by their spouses or partners, with hundreds moreinjured in outbursts of domestic violence. Mr Fillon said the new lawhad the support of the majority of the government and could come intoforce within six months。
