    Thats a bit racist..

    To be honest if you goto to south of france the people are far more freindly than peopl ein this country, Its only Parisians that a genrally rude, When i was travelling round france people would invite you to there family home for food and wine, Never met friendlier people...

    Well...iIf I was to say, call you, an arsehole (purely for example) that is not racist. You can be from any place or of any race/religion and STILL be an arsehole. Thus, calling a group of people arseholes is not necessarily racist either...However, it's hardly fair to brand an entire population arseholes when you are simply basing it on a stereotye and clearly have not met every Frenchman in the world...

    HOWEVER, if you were from a specific country or of a certain background/religion/race, whatever, and I was to make negative comments with direct relation to that in a manner that is to discredit your race/religion and cause offence, then that is what i consider to be racist.

    The French are a fantastic nation of people and we could do with taking a few leaves out of their book of ways of doing things.

    Being british these days means standing for less and less and still being strangely proud of it - we're a society in decline.

    The french :up:

    I'd like to bet if you asked the average english person why there is an english/french rivaly .... they probably couldnt string a decent reason together.

    People are born and bred into this attitude that the french are idiots and seem to just go along with it, and even get some collective validation amongst themselves and their peers by making anti french comments.

    The french have great food, pride in their country and arent afraid to enforce it (rather than the english way which involves sitting at home behind the net curtains and tutting), and the right attitude about day to day life and trying to maintain peace in this world.

    They have every right to look down on us - sorry.
