Well everything in french is misrepresented due to the inaccuracy of basic translation.

In French we use c'est (it is) to describe anybody when in English that would be (he or she).

That has always been so.

When you read a Macron speech you are not getting what he said but the translator's version which is often alarmingly different.

This sounds like french dottiness but prefer to investigate rather than jump in.



So if a girl is ill you don’t say ‘Elle est malade’ You say c’est malade?
If you are right then all the text books over here need burning.
As always, you frenchies get very confused
Mais je m’en fous.

Add it to places like Sweden that you can totally write off as having caved to liberalism and mass immigration without even putting up a whimper.

The place is a s***hole, full of radicals who murder them without challenge, whilst the natives concern themselves with what's important:
Accomodating nonsense like this and striking/rioting when it looks like they're in danger of having to do a day's graft.

Brick the tunnel up and leave them to it.

GC stands for good call.

A bit ironic since all French words are either masculine or feminine.

Perhaps they want to simplify their grammar.

All of Western society is obsessed with pandering to minorities irrespective of the effect it will have on wider society.
Rigid ideology over reason. A common theme these days.

We should all ask ourselves who is driving this movement and why.

France has a lot of rural land and is less dense in population. The roads are less busy and it doesn't feel crowded.

It is all the things that we are trying to destroy in Britain. However, with immigration set to reach unimaginable levels in the next couple of centuries, nowhere in Europe will be safe.

Yep, but we know that's only part of it.

There's a large supporting cast.

Ludicrous..
Why are people these days making life(life that has existed as civilisations for centuries) so confusing?
There's 2 genders, male and female, end of.
Mother and father. It's not offensive. It's not downgrading in any matter. It's just simple scientific life.
If your gay and have kids then you will be father and father. Or mother and mother.
Stop making life confusing.

So in France gender doesn't matter in people but it does in objects? It's surely inevitable at this rate that a man will eventually marry a table leg.

Didn't Paul McCartney do that? I don't quite remember.

Ha! Good ol' Heather. I never knew whether to say Would or Wood, but eventually settled on wouldn't.
