Hope you guys liked the video! Don't hesitate to check out our second video: all the things we LOVE about France! th-cam.com/video/Vpnhu4PXv9U/w-d-xo.html
Great video, as always ! Personnaly, you're not making me feel like going out with a guy from USA or New-Zealand : showing too much affection = being "effeminate" ?? What ? Drinking a cocktail is being effeminate ? Whaaat ? You're supposed to drink what you want, whatever you're a guy or a girl... Isn't it ? We think USA and English-Saxon countries are more feminist and less machist than France but I realise it's not the case and that a lot of guys seem to have a "middle-age" mentality...
Well, as I always say, you're lucky enough to be with interesting guys, because many of them are not cultivated or well-educated at all !
Loving your mother... That's compulsory !
Men are supposed to like their girlfriends as they are, if they don't, they're just machist...
French men always well dressed... Depends who ! In my little towns, many of them are dressed like shit with their sweatsuit... Horrible !
Yeah, we're a time flexible culture and that's great !
salut! what is PDA? Thanks!

Unintentionally Frenchified je suis vraiment désolé de pas savoir parler anglais c une langue qui me plais beaucoup je vous suit beaucoup et j aimerais comprendre se que vous dites dans cette vidéos svp
I'm a french MGTOW, désolé les filles LOL
You forgot the cooking ! (it's pretty common for a frenchman to be able to cook at least a few different dishes)
Totally Agree!
The Crackhouse. Yes indeed , very good comment
My hubbie is a great cook.
So funny about dressing up vs pajamas in the US. I’ve been living for 5 years in Boston MA, and I see people walking their dogs, doing their groceries in pajamas or just sweat pants, I’ve been told even students show up in pajamas in class sometimes. This always amuses me to see. This is unthinkable in France. I can’t start a day, even on vacations or on Sundays without dressing up a little. This is indeed a big difference between these 2 countries.
I was completely a culprit of going to class when i was a student in sweat pants!
Si si dans le Médoc y a des gens qui font leurs courses en pyjama..
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified To be fair, it is a LOT more cold where you come from than in France. But the pajama thing, that is unacceptable anywhere, anytime outside of your home. Granted, I am about 20 years older than you.
Je suis française et je n’avais jamais envisager avant cette vidéo qu’un cocktail puisse être considérer comme une boisson « féminine ». Pour moi un cocktail a toujours était universel. C’est dingue de voir les différences entre les cultures ! 😊
C'est le cas en France aussi hein. Un cosmo par exemple est très connoté boisson de femme. Mais de là à juger les hommes parce qu'ils en prennent ? Je pense pas que cela arrive si souvent que cela en France effectivement.
Je vis aux US!! Et ce concept m'a surpris au debut!! Ils ont beau avoir l'air flexible, il peuvent etre tres coince et etroit d'esprit, surtout les campagnards, les gens qui n'ont pas ete a l'ecole longtemps et les minorites.....
Donc en fait la majorité des gens..
haha, Il faut tomber sur le bonnes personnes!!!
Autant je bois de la bière (Bush Ambré par exemple), de la vodka, du whisky et j'en passe. Autant je savoure un p'tit Mojito ou autre cocktail et on m'a jamais dit que c’était de "l'alcool pour femme". Après cela doit dépendre des régions, venant du Pas-de-Calais en tout cas, on s'en moque (généralement, c'est pas vraiment le cas des jeunes) de quel type de boisson alcoolisé le mec bois, après je sais pas comme ça se passe pour d'autre région.
We're so manly that we don't have any problem showing our feminine side...
Nothing is more manly than not caring about gender stereotype ^^
Awww!
thats so true because it shows your not insecure about your masculinity, you dont feel like you need to prove anything
I love this comment. Very well said
I don't have a feminine side I'm all balls. Not sorry either. FYI there are only two sexes and everyone has a biological imperative and proclivity. The rest of the stuff is subversive to cohesive societies look at the mess the world in today. Yay regressive progressivism! Soon we're going to all need chaperones to go in public because people can't handle feelings. Control yourselves folks or the government will do it for you. What do I know I live in the land of liberty and freedom North America. No CCTV following me.
Hi girls.
I would love to add that they're quite romantic whole year around.
Getting flowers for no reason at all only because he just passed flower shop and seen flowers I love. Or get me some great cake in this super cute boxes. Getting us to try some good and really nice restaurant in the middle of the week and on weekend. Other times it will be me choosing restaurants.
And as you ve mentionned lots of cultural stuff going to theaters and concerts, museums, monuments, weekend getaway to see some villages and castles.
Telling my how beautiful Im and how proud he is that I dress up nicely in some cute dress and kitten heels or in tux for women with high heels or even nice blazer with cute flats and jeans.
Also there is real conversation and exchange. Couples often here listen to each others on what is happening in their jobs or friends and debate together.
My husband has no problem clean up whole appartement when Ive too much work or feel unwell or just cooks me a dinner. Often we clean up together and cook together as well while drinking wine.
He doesnt feel emasculated and I dont see him as emasculated even if Im from very macho country. We are just equals- partners who live and do things together.
Thank you so much for this video xxx 😊
Maruschka Bekaert thanks for all the great cultural additions! There is so many great things about dating a French guy that it’s hard to choose!!
Khadija Fayyaz Thank you. 😊
I love and appreciate a lot french people. Latin countries are my personal crush. Ive lived in 12 different countries.
Recently after almost 22 years out of my native country Ive moved back for a while and Im horrified by how men treat women: Im macho big strong man much much more intelligent then you and I know everything better you're just less intelligent female. So dont you worry your pretty little head just stay pretty amd shut up. No need to get tired by using your brain I can do it for you and I do it better.
So women get critised, judged on everything even the way they speak and right words they didnt use in men opinion and worst they get to be put down constantly.
Im like what a hell this is suppose to be modern european country albeit very small one.
So thankful for my french husband and cling to him for all its worth while listening to all these men and their derogatory comments to their women.
My husband laughs I didnt know you loved me soo much. 😀
And I say: Thank you for being french. 😂 Im thankful everyday that I was way too ugly for men from my country as girls looking like topmodels run a streets and men often dont have a hair very early and get a beer belly.
My husband said: All these men got such beautiful women and they dont appreciate them take them for granted and treat them badly and they are so ugly 😂

What is your native country?
davlmt Interested in supermodels walking the streets. 😊 The usual ones - from Czech Republic through Slovakia, Poland, ex Soviet Union.
I was born in ex Czechoslovakia left at age of 17.
The poet Pierre Reverdy once said: "Il n'y a pas d'amour, il n'y a que des preuves d'amour." - There is no love, only proofs of love
This is very French. What you describe, the little attentions, the flowers etc.. these are proofs of love. This is also why Valentine's day is not so much a big thing in France, because it's year round..
We're definitely okay with PDA here xD When I was in high school, the 'CPE' (conseiller principal d'éducation? Kind of the head of supervisors and stuff?) wanted to ban it for a while (particularly kissing). I swear we were all ready to start a revolution to prevent that from happening x)
I am sorry, but what does PDA stand for ? Thanks in advance !

Je viens d'apprendre qu'il y avait des "girly cocktails"!
et oui chérie
Going for grocery shopping in my pajamas ? I'd feel naked. Plus I'd be worried that I'll be arrested for exhibitionistic behavior... It's weird, I've nerver seen people walking around in their pajamas in Hollywood movies.
hahah most pajamas in the states are sweat pants and a teeshirt so normally you wouldn't get arrested in that! :)
OK ! That's what in France we call "le jogging" outfit.
Got it!
The only one I've seen going to a grocery store in near-pyjama clothing was... The Dude, from Big Lebowski.
I live in Florida. Some people even wear fuzzy house slippers to grocery shop . Curlers in hair etc . They can do what they want . I don’t believe in controlling people . But I would prefer if people wore dress shirt and tie on a daily basis , or professional dresses and pearls . With coiffed hair and hygenic , groomed , fit bodies . When they speak
I appreciate thoughtful , insightful exchange . They walk with poise . They move with wistful intention ...
As a french, i can tell you a secret about flexible time, why we are ok if you are ladies 10-15min late, it's because we tell you we have to go 30min before we actually have to! ;) de rien!
It is not about the nationality of the counter part. The truely important thing that determines the "quality" of the man/woman is the good family education, if they aren't grown up in a family full of love, care, respect and harmony, they are less likely to become a lifelong partner.
It's so much fun seeing the two of you together. I watch both of your channels, as well as one other one (Diane). Even though I have been to France eleven times, have lots of friends, and there is not too much new in your videos, I very definitely enjoy them.
OMG. I’m a Midwest girl married to a Frenchmen for 2 years now and I would agree with EVERYTHING you ladies had to say in this video! So relatable.

Wow so cool ! You think you've got a token french boytoy to brag about ! French identity isn't a commodity, have some respect.

Your videos are so refreshing. It's so nice to watch agreable people talking about what's nice about others. I'm aware we're definitely far from perfect, it's just great to focus on the hal-full glass for a change, thx
Vincent S I agree! So nice to be super positive for a change!
Met my Frenchman during spring break in the USSR (yep, that long ago). Very long friendship/relationship before tying the knot. Going on 30 years of wedded bliss. He is my soul mate.
Amazing!! I’ve been following Rosie for about a month and it’s because my French boyfriend sent me the video you two made about what you’d wished you’d known haha. Honestly I found it so helpful and sweet. Bruce and I started dating just before Christmas, so it’s new, fun and exciting but definitely a learning curve. I’m Canadian and we both live here. Thanks so much for your videos! Can’t wait to see more. And if you have more advice on relationships that would be awesome. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Thanks for the sweet comment Lara! Glad you can relate to our videos :)
I am french guy, and I like to order a Cosmo' at bar sometimes too ;)
As a French guy I definitely agree (lol) ! Thanks for this nice portrait!
I rarely see videos like this that I love but these two gals are the best. I feel like they're just across the table from me, and we're having tea, coffee, or a few adult beverages. They feel like old friends that I'm just catching up with. I could listen to them every day! 😀🌺🌴💞
So glad you love the videos as much as we love making them!!
I've just discovered this channel but I really enjoy your videos !
It's funny what you said about the french accent because for us it's really not a good thing to have an accent when you speak another language, and that really surprised me the first time I heard that the french accent actually had a good reputation ! ^^
when did alcohol get a gender what the heck now we can't even drink in peace noooooo
Your comment made me laugh out loud!! 😂
bitume: il est vrai qu’il n’y a pas si longtemps on faisait une telle distinction . Par example le Porto, le Cointreau voire le martini etaient plus considérés comme des boisons plus “féminines”.

Hey there :3 I'm a french guy discovering your channel :)
Really enjoyed this external point of view about frenchmen, we almost never ear this so I really enjoyed what you girls said in this video.
A few things that I'd like to add:
French people are used to natural look... To me it sounded like something universal as when you fall in love with a girl, you fall in love with her way to behave, her way to smile and all this stuff but not her make up x) I mean, if you marry her, you'll get married with the girl not her make up product ^^'
Look how a guy behaves with his mother will tell you how he'll treat you. I never heard that before but it totally makes sense to me, that's basic and totally true.
One last thing ... the french accent ^^ As a french guy I never liked my accent and tried to hide it as much as possible and I never understood why it was sounding attractive abroad ^^' For me the french accent is just a lot of mispronunciations never corrected and blended together. Could someone explain me what's attractive with it ?
I like your content :3 Continue your videos :D
And maybe change your mic for a better one, we have a lot of parasite sound on the video ^^
But continue your work :3
I wish I could explain it to you but French accents just sound really nice :)
French accent 😍 J'taime
I think people love french accents because letters are so clear and sounds sexy in a way, letters are pronounced in their correct way in french, that’s what makes it attractive (for me at least)

Excellente journée à vous.
Thanks guys for this nice video !!! Bisous from Lille
Very true! :)
Thanks for posting!
So true! I’m Canadian, married to a Frenchman. Love this video.
Don't listen to crimson bardamu. It's just a stupid moron...
As for me, I was hesitating between troll, humour, and stupidity :-)
Trouvez-vous une copine et arrêtez de baver sur des grognasses qui n'ont aucun respect pour votre culture et voient votre nationalité comme un produit de consommation exotique.

@@frederickpasco7607 pauvre choux.
you are lovely ladies .... as french man it's very pleasant to listen to you speaking about France and french people ;-) you glad me ;-)
Very funny video ! Many thanks!
Omg so relatable !! Especially the pyjamas thing 😂 I can't understand why but my husband (french) just can't stand to stay in his sleeping outfit once he's awake x) while I (moroccan) find it normal to chill whole Sunday or week end in my pyjamas if I have no plans 😂
Wearing sleeping clothes all day, and eating meals in them is disgusting and unhealthy
I love my french boyfriend!!!! Love the accent & meticulous about food❤
Thank you so much for additional info's
Girls, pijamas are for bed, they are never meant to leave your house!!
Or to be worn all day...

Actually in France there is no girly cocktail ^^
Just coctail
Good point,, here too, Im in Norway
That's nice! Unfortunately in the US, really fruity and sweet drinks are considered girly, and guys will most definitely get teased when ordering them.
@@Kat-rw2fc well i m french , brittany area, there it s the same. We practilly never drink cocktail. Whisky, ricard, beer, chouchen , wine are for men. Sweet bear and cider are for girl or young people. Generally women dont drink. Alcool with sugar is for woman.
Hi Kate, I stumbled upon your video via Not Even French, and found it quite enlightening so thanks for that and well done!
This makes me realise how lucky I am to be with a French guy. I used to sort of fantasise about Anglo guys - the blond hair / blue eyes (not seen often in my native Marseille, south-east France), often taller and a bit (or a lot in AU / NZ) more muscular, the warm approach etc. But after 5 years in the UK and 3 in Australia, even though many guys are definitely eye candy to me, I feel like they're what I call "prawns": enjoy the delicious body, but discard the head because there's not much in there. My French husband may neither smile all the time nor go to the gym 5 times a week, but he prefers me without makeup, loves a good cocktail, has no problem with PDA (it actually makes me kinda sad there's a "technical-sounding" word and even an acronym for this in English!), high education (which cost nothing, vive la France!), has a genuinely warm relationship with his mom and we can debate about politics and go and go see some art exhibitions together without him huffing and puffing. I guess we French don't know our luck till we get to hear from an external point of view ;-)
Arent your Guy blond too ?
This video is adorable 💕 You two are the cutest !!
mojito is the favorite drink of both Ernest Hemingway and Francis Drake.... is that a girl drink ?
Yes
Very nice video, I didn't know that us French were that appreciated. I know a lot of German people in my area (Provence) and they were all happy to leave Germany or to come to France and visit her outstanding villages, castles, mountains , spots, restaurants.
Lol the cocktail part surprised me. Sure French men are probably less insecure about their masculinity but that’s not the question here.
We don’t even have this concept of men/women’s drinks. Men can drink cocktails, and also, women can drink beer and strong liquor.
You just drink whatever you like.
First Time Watching. Love it!
Yeah, spread the word that we NEVER lay a whole sunday at home watching Netflix because we totally never do that. Never ever crossed my mind. I would be embarassed. No really, it's true. I hate that.

What do you do then...
My boyfriend is french and Im from Ecuador, and with this video you make me feel lees alone because he is different in the best way possible from the latin men, but I dont have anyone who understand that jeje, so thank you for the video again!!

Its weird to see it in a positive way. Usually, when you speak about french people, its most of the time negative, even more than negative... But seeing you both happy and smiling is comforting ! Haha
(I'm french btw).
Hope you will make others videos soon !
Mais ... Mais ... c'est un breton :o
ce n'est donc pas un français ! ( troll trop tentant ^^ )
They either make negative comments or pseudo-positive comments that are actually very disrespectful. Talking about "french boyfriends" like they're some pets to come and take back home. Anglos and americans are just incapable of respecting France, its culture and people.
Crimson Bardamu yeah like you respect waman and et cetera. Think about it like you would in their place.
Men and women both see each other in a sexual way and there’s nothing wrong with that, get over it kiddo (half French half Brit btw)
If you're gonna base counter-arguments on assumptions, you might as well not say anything.
Nice video! As a French man, I definitely see myself in these 10 points. But I have to say you aren't very lucky if you both date French men who are not into Valentine's Day. I mean, sure most French people think it's some random day that you have to celebrate because not taking your girlfriend out would obviously make her mad.
Still, for many people I know, not doing anything on that day is simply out of the question. If you don't go to the restaurant for whatever reason, you make sure to have a nice dinner at home; and I know that's how it goes for all my friends, coworkers, etc. I'm not the kind of guy who would wait for Valentine's Day to show my love to the person I'm dating, but skipping a date on February 14th? No way!
As a French, I really like the realistic point of view that you have on my country!
We do love how bubbly you english speaking ladies are too !
Kate & Rosie, actually being late is part of the french étiquette, we even call it quart d'heure de politesse. If you're invited especially for dinner, say at 7:00 p.m. do arrive at 7:15 to allow for the maîtresse de maison to make up for any shortcoming that might have happened in the preparation of the dinner. :) Just love your love for France and the french caractère.
Absolutely love this video
1:30 Relationships are indeed exclusive by default but non-exclusive relationships are quite common in big cities. I'd say that the difference compared to the American dating that I've experienced, is that it needs to be said as such and there isn't this dating period where it's ok to go see other people.
Thanks you very much ;o) (a French who will come soon at NYC).
Se priver de mojito par fierté... Haha qu'elle horreur !
Thank you for all these kinds of videos! I'm a French girl in a long distance relationship with a guy from Alabama for months, and I can relate to you talking about cultures differences and how it makes you learn things and kind of a second life. It's nice to see your perspective from US/ New Zealand moving to France (hopefully my man will do the same soon
You both are absolutely adorable !!! Merci pour votre gentillesse ! Je pense que nous vous aimons aussi ! :)
Thank for your video
yes. the accent. haha! i remember letting my boyfriend read a coupon from burger king, and when he started talking, i was like "OMG!! come here!!!!!!!" hahaha
Girlie cocktails ? Feminine drinks ?
Lady, I have no idea what you're talking about. What makes a cocktail "girlie" ?
It's a foreign mindset. Trust me, there's no such thing as a feminine or girly drink/cocktail. It's nonsense.
Wowww, that’s so crazy. There really is such a big culture difference. Cocktails and things like that are considered really feminine in places like America and England or wherever, that’s just mad to me.
American here: cocktails are "girly" if they are sweet, low-alcohol, fruity, colorful, with bright flavors or appearances.
Girly things are usually full of sugar and colors. Men drinks bitter beer or earthy wine.
Tammie Dodgers nope it said to be sweeter less alcoholic drinks. Ex : Grand Marnier v.s Cognac, Porto vs Martini, une Cerise v.s un Marc etc...including combinations
It would be interesting if you could snare either or both of your male partners and have them do a 'male counterpart' video in which, they discuss what they like / don't like about dating french vs. non-french women.
Hello there, thank you for this video, good luck with your channel :) Just a quick remark if I may (cf : the french dudes direct feedback ;) --> Maybe give it a couple more seconds between transitioning to the next point when you edit the video? Sometimes the first few words were cut. Otherwise thanks again :) Cheers!
loooo38 hahah thanks for the direct feedback!! I’ll keep it in mind for the next video! Learning to edit has been a big challenge for me 😐
That's so interesting to hear what are foreigners thinking of "us" . you find the French accent sexy. I'm in love with the kiwi accent it's so sweet, it literally drives me crazy
Well, I understand this is a PG13 channel, but you forgot, in my opinion, the most persuasive argument for dating French men and girls. I've been dating quite a bit in the US and Canada for 7 years and 99% of the time making love felt like rehearsing a scene from some porn movie. No emotional connection, just some sort of performance, an act, almost a con, it was so freaking sad. Making love is not about how you perform, you don't get grades, it's about something entirely different, and perhaps men and women should stop pretending to be some kind of porn star.

Yeah I agree, with my limited experience that is. My experience with a Serbian ex showed me he was too focussed on looking good or dominant, wanting to imitate porn scenes, but not focussed on making passionate intimate love
As always, it depends on which part of France you are, the south/north is one thing but people forget the est/west differences too
For the feminine thing ,its because french people have very pinpoint attitude that are considered feminine, every thing outside this stuff however you see it doesn’t matter, like cocktails: they are not considered necessarily feminine.
Thank you for making these videos, they are so captivating, you two young ladies are so sweet to watch and listen to. - I am curios why you two giggled and said you'll notice it's Valentine's Day - but here we are making this video. Or maybe it was the previous video you both said that. Were both buys away?
@5:26, what is an Erasmus, please? I know who he was, etc, but is that slang for finals, in school or collecge, please?
Thanks again,

PS: I love a smear of mayonnaise, then thinly sliced radishes with a pinch of salt sprinkled on top, to ameliorate the strong bite radishes have, on my baguette slices. :-)
I'm really late, but since no one answered your question about Erasmus...
Erasmus is a program which allows European students to study abroad for 6 to 12 months. They give you a small amount of money, help with the accomodations, etc. Thanks to the ECTS Credits system, if you pass your exams for the semester, the results are valid in other Europeans Universities. Around 300 000 students benefited from the programme in 2016.
I think nowadays, new graduates can also apply to Erasmus, and find internships or jobs abroad.
The program has been named after the philosopher, but it is actually an acronym for EuRopean Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students.
I don't know if this is wierd but I love Kate's teeth and mouth region. Love how you speak.
Hi Rosie and Kate, I’m so glad to find your videos and thank you for sharing these valuable insights. With the “exclusive” thing from the first date, how true would you say? My guy is well educated, stylish and divorced 40 something. He told me he’s passionate about me. He kissed me on our first date. Is this the sign that we are going in a relationship?
I went to USA and one of the thing I really miss is to be able to go to the grocery in pyjama =)
Sadly, as a Frenchman, I'm undatable as I am far too grumpy and negative for ladies whether French or foreign. Interesting fact about your mother telling you how a man will treat you according to how he treats her mother. Sadly my mum pased away when I was nine and I have quite a problem about her, regarding her action of having a child as reckless and negligent (she never told me who my father was, hence why I hate family secrets and untold things), I feel quite disabled about getting a girlfriend, marrying ans having a child, so I don't really bother to try. And I would be too much dependent on the other, so if things go wrong, I'd end up devastated.
Have fun with you French partners/husbands and good luck !
T'inquiète poto, tu finiras par en trouver une de gonzesse, mais il t'en faudrait une qui n'ait pas sa langue dans la poche, avec des couilles au cul, franche et directe, pas qui fasse des ronds de jambes. Beaucoup évitent la confrontation de nos jours, hors ça évite pourtant bien des soucis, mieux vaut crever les abcès le plus tôt possible, ça évite les vraies prises de têtes tout en préservant la qualité de nos relations. Bonne chance, et ne perds pas espoir !
C'est ce que j'ai essayé d'expliquer à la seule fille avec laquelle je suis sorti il y a quinze ans, mais elle n'en avait rien à faire... c'était émotionnellement épuisant. J'ai pas envie de recommencer. Et puis de nos jours on a aussi des filles dominatrices et vengeresses qui pensent qu'à nous manipuler parce que "les mecs sont tous des porcs", ça non plus, je n'en veux pas. On n'est pas parfaits, mais les deux sexes devraient faire des efforts, or pour elles, on devrait être les seuls à devoir en faire...
I'm so sorry about your mum... you seem like a nice man 😔
Quo Niam Sorry to heat this 🙏🏾
oh that's funny what you said about the cocktail. I had never realized that. for my I never thought of a cocktail being "girly" ever. so you're right about that in france. there's no stigma around cocktail (it doesn't mean that everyone drink cocktails and no just bear or whisky, but there's no stigma attached to the cocktails. really, when you said a "girly" cocktail, that's when it hit me ^^ thank you for this video, it was fun !:D
Y a bien des alcools de femmes et d hommes en france pourtant. Apres avec les nouvelles generations les cartes sont brouillés la dessus.
great video ! but just one question : what does PDA mean?
Public Displays of Affection :)
it's funny that it's a "thing" and you've got an expression and an acronym especcially for that :)
PDA is public display if affection !!! I ll be damned ! We don t use that many acronyms in the french language. Like : I watch a lot of series in v.o. on french television to keep up with my english. I m getting fed up with the numbers of " well, where is the d.b. ? And what 's the c.o.d ? He changed his m.o. this time.!!!!!
Vraiment il faut s accrocher pour comprendre.
petra lemona Gad Elmaleh says exactly the same thing in his Netflix standup special in english (called "My american dream). He talks about "dating" and "PDA". Very funny.
thank you !!!
Finally of alls the accurate videos you posted, it seems that's why you prefer to stay in France compared with any other culture
I'm glad to see Anglosaxon ladies appreciating our time flexibility. Previously my time flexibility has got me into trouble with ladies from other nationality.

Bonjour, j'ai découvert votre chaîne grâce à la merveilleuse "Not Even French" que j'adore et vraiment j'en suis heureux. J'adore votre chaîne et c'est avec un énorme plaisir que je m'y abonne immédiatement. Au plaisir de vous revoir bientôt.
Amicalement.
Merci Olivier!
Nous aussi, aimons beaucoup vos commentaires, Olivier !

Je ne suis pas sûre qu'il y ait des cocktails féminin lol mais c'est vrai que dans les pays anglophones, le rapport à l'alcool est vraiment différent
I was in Tel Aviv once and ordered a Campari soda (or Campari jus d'orange). Not a particularly effete thing to do, I thought. As a matter of fact I didn't think anything, I just ordered it, because I felt like it. The waitress' funny look and subsequent explanation of her look made it clear soon enough that in Israel men drink beer and not cocktails. Of course I didn't bother and drank my Campari anyway, without shame. But it was an interesting experience.
That is very much accurate! Are you still in France?
The point I have to rebounce on is how close we are to are moms. Our moms and sisters are Everything to us, they are our first and last loves.
Rosie's accent 😍♥️
I have known two French gals. There were absolutely none of the conflicts described in this series. I am a mixed-blood Native American from the Southeastern USA. I think perhaps that I was culturally different from New Zealand or USA northern men. Lots of PDA was natural in my culture as was having straightforward in my feelings. I generally drink wine, not beer or distilled spirits. The French girls loved my "educated" Southern accent! Oh, I have very good relationships with my mother and sister!
C'est vraiment surprenant de voir à quel point nous sommes culturellement différents... c'est amusant d'avoir votre point de vu sur les français. En tout cas bonne continuation mesdames... kiss.
Oh oui merci de propager cette idée.
I don’t know where Kate is from in the U.S. but I have NEVER seen anyone go to the grocery store in their pajamas.😬
The midwest! I still see it all the time when i go home :)

Sadly it’s not uncommon in the uk. House coat/dressing gown over a onesie...
Go shop to a rural walmart.
I don’t know where you live in the US but I’ve lived and been in SO many states and it’s not uncommon to see people go to the grocery store in their PJs.
@@dmsjt5181 indeed it s weird. There in france its impossible to do that. Generally when i go in grocery i go in bathroom before just to see if my hair are good and wear best clothes.
They are fairly obvious which is great but they are over-romantised.
I dated two but they were not for me.
I love being friends with them because they are emotionally open.
I thank you deeply, on behalf of every french single heterosexual man. You deserves a medal for honoring our country.
This is interesting to watch after the negative stuff you’ve said that made me kinda weary to study there.
Just watching g some of your previous videos and wondered if your and Rosie’s “French boy” knew each other before you and Rosie met.
Hi Olga! They didn't know each before. Rosie and I met at work and knew each other before our husbands met!
So... The french accent when speaking english is a real thing then....
Good to know, as a french man. Thank you
Hey i'm French and don't completly agree with the flex times.. you Can only have a flex times in your personal life.. in the professional world, if you're late, you"re dead.
jakou31 totally true! We should have been more specific that it’s only in your personal life!
And in the personnal life, its called "le 1/4 d'heure de politesse"
Exactly, le quart d'heure de politesse is 15 min allowed to be late. Other rule, the man must be present 10 min before the rendez vous. Btw, i'm belgian (so french) and i hate late ppl
Depends on your work, i'm often 5 to 45 minutes late without any problem. I think i've never been on time the past 3 years lol
I agree with you even in the personal life 5 to 15 mns is often the maximum allowed.
By the way single frenchman here ! As you can hear in the video we're pretty much perfect so... ;p
themunch haha well noted! ;)
"Adopt a French" with not even french and unintentionally frenchified, the next dating app!
You still single? :p
Send me a message then 😉 bisou from Argentina
Well done 👍
OMG why is it that as an American (in mid-twenties) recently I’ve noticed that many people several years younger than me don’t know what “whipped” means, but a New Zealander knows this slang
I am a French man, just for accuracy : it is OK to be late in France. Wa are simply used to communicate time 30mn before actual target to make sure you "my ladies" will be on time ! ;) Also mind that if this trick works for others you need to accept à similar treatment on return! Btw : Beer is not that manly drink, it is just discounted alcohol not standing on comparison to good wine.
Thank you ao much this was helpful 😂 i am always frustrated with my french guy being super late all the time . But i have a question if they cancel a date last minute is it still normal?
You ladies rock..from a frenchman
When I was in Paris, literally I had to cross my heart every time I made the other side of the street alive, the cars fly by ignoring even the police officers at the red light, unlike in US where people freeze at the site of a cop.
Because in France the police won't shoot you for ignoring a red light, even if you're black LOL
@@arno222444 racism and police brutality against black people is still prevalent in France.
@@samerraahmed8186
Of course there is issues in France but nothing compared to the US, come on be real.
@@arno222444 fair enough, I think the US is too far gone to ever move on from systematic racism. France has some work to do as well- as any other country would.
@@samerraahmed8186 and if a policeman is black. Does he do racism stuff on the white people?
Its funny to repeat and repeat that police is racist. Then all people who had issues with the police and said it was racism were all criminal person.
Do you really have beer in America? I was there and couldn't find any. There was this watery yellow stuff called Budweiser and Coors but I really couldn't find any beer.
in northern europe we like our cosy clothes. its more about functionality here:)
Northern Europe should be my next stop!
TheTripstraps Yes, layers specifically 🥴
You girls have been watching Les Bronzés and La soupe aux choux 😂😉
I'm going to france for a year to work sooooo I'm hopeful ;) (Irish here)
Cool ! I'm a french guy and I love Ireland, want to marry? :D
Time flexible culture, ha ha. The more you go toward the south, the more flexible time is getting !
Il n'y a rien de plus joli qu'une femme au naturel, avec un léger maquillage. La beauté dans la simplicité ! C'est peut être encore plus difficile que de paraître sophistiquée.
Je suis toujours surpris de voir, surtout chez les américaines, des brushings si immobiles qu'on finirait par croire que leurs cheveux sont une matière vivante ;)
that's true about look and fashion. We are used to prefer kind of "natural" beauty. Nice clothes, just a little eyeliner.
"constant learning", I didn't know it was something special with french guys. But a foreign girlfriend told me "I always learn something with you"
