The Paris Traveler

French Men

by Lynn on June 26th, 2007

Theme day here at b5 media is all about men, so I thought, why not Frenchmen! Here is a hodgepodge of things for and about these, oh so charming men! 

1.  Over at ThinkExist there are a number of interesting quotes by famous Frenchmen. You can read more, but here is just a small sample. 

“Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.” Jules Renard

“Love is being stupid together.” Paul Valéry

“Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.”  Antoine de Saint-Exupéry 

Frenchmen are always thinking about love, maybe that’s why women are so smitten by them!

2.  The 10 Best Mens’ Stores in Paris is over at 10 Best. Details about what to buy and where to buy it are given in this list.  

3.  The vocal members of Stereolab, Laetitia Sadier and Tim Gane, give their take on Frenchmen. Not always flattering, but could Tim, (a Brit), be a little jealous when he says, “French boys…they’re real mommies’ boys. And they all dress the same.”? You can read more at Dr Drew.

4.  There’s a new spa treatment in Paris just for men. Nickel offers men facials, manicures, pedicures, skin care and beauty treatments that we women have gotten use to and take for granted. Visit their website for all the details.

5.  One woman’s view on how she ended up marrying a Frenchmen, under her post titled, How To Marry a Frenchman.

Enjoy!
